The comparison to animals cuts both ways, right? He's comparing locals to sheep

> And by "ethnicity", this literally means "non-white" people

I read the links before I posted. I remember reading "non-Danes" and talking about Brits and non Brits. to me being a British person is about culture not skin color. If he is judging people by skin color then I'll disagree with him on that.

I'm honestly not entirely sure what you're doing.

>He's comparing locals to sheep

Yes, you're right! Romani people to wolves. And locals as sheep. And we should put down the wolves.

>I read the links before I posted. One link specifically says "non-Danes" the other one is talking about Brits and non Brits.

Yes, you're right! Brits and non-brits. Let's scour:

>That was then. Now, I wouldn't dream of it. London is no longer the city I was infatuated with in the late '90s and early 2000s. Chiefly because it's no longer full of native Brits.

There's a hint of what's going on here. Danish person wants to move to London. Gets to London. "gee, I could never migrate here, there are way too few native Brits". It's almost like he considers himself "a native Brit". Buddy just doesn't like colored people.

This is exactly what you'd find in der sturmer in the 30's, Nazis regularly used predator/prey analogies when describing jews as invading their country.
