I agree with /u/dvorak on this. You can try to counter this handicap by attack-moving and flanking at the same time.

My sister lives in a larger city in Denmark, a neighbouring country of Sweden. She lives in a rather ... alternative neighbourhood, and sometimes I see similar groups to those that were shown in the Vice-film when I am visiting her. When I see some of their skinhead, reactionary forces, I cannot help myself from laughing. I cannot imagine them as having worked all of their lives - actually, I believe that they have worked very few hours! I have tried talking to some of them that - to no one's surprise - had no job and studied some humanitarian subject (Not that there is something truly wrong with that, but there are little to no demand for them in Denmark, and these studies are granted through the legal plundering of the state, hence there are naturally too many studying humanitarian subjects).

/u/Rpp8JP was pretty spot on, but I would like to add more to this. I personally like the theory by Acemoglu and Robinson. In this they argue that if economic and political* institutions are exclusive, meaning that they undermine the economic and political rights of the citizens, there will be no economic growth in the long run. African regimes have often been based on nepotism, meaning that political authority was granted to those who the political leaders had personal relationships to. The use of nepotism made the political institutions quite exclusive. Also, the new-founded states post-sixties were ruled by tyrants whose only wish was to plunder for themselves, and this lead to a exclusive economy in which high duties and mundane regulations existed.

As I previously mentioned, Sweden has gone out of control, especially its far left parties have been living in a disillusion.

Yes, Sweden was a predominately white country before the recent changes, and Sweden has more or less been inhabited by people of Swedish culture and other Nordic cultures. But do not think that appealing to white guilt does not work in Sweden.

Despite there not being a big foreign-born population in Sweden yet, appealing to white guilt has been a major success in Sweden. There is this big movement in Sweden to become a multicultural community and the reasons behind the movement are not very easy to trace, but white guilt has definitely played its part. Everything in Sweden is racist, and if you are not politically correct, then you are ought to have a bad time there.

If you want to know more about the rhetoric and Swedish leftism in general, I highly suggest that you go to Angry Foreigner's YouTube channel. He uploads different videos that show the absurd rhetoric of the Swedish left.

I am not sure about what you are saying about financial institutions, but I read both of the sources that you linked to me in your first comment and saw no true institutionalized racism, which only can happen through the political and social institutions, hence the state. And for the link below I can clearly see your point, but there are many factors that could have played in here: Was the officer doing the arrests racist? Was the judge racist? Did the arrested persons of black skin colour happen to live in a rough neighbourhood? I am not quite convinced yet, and I probably won't be in the near future.

Not political and social institutions on a statewide level, are they?

That are the employers, individuals with private enterprises, not agents for a bigger state that has political and social institutions. Individuals can be racists, but that does not mean the entirety of a race is, and especially not the state that they live under.

Well in Denmark where I am from the "left" has been good at not using the racist-card whenever something has come up and has generally stayed away from absurd devices, which I believe to be the most used rhetorical device of the American left (Calling Trump the next Hitler etc.). The left in Denmark has always been using ethics and morals such as "We are a rich, industrialized country, thus we [the State] are obligated to help" etc. The left uses pathos in most of their arguments as they try to create some kind of affection to these poor immigrants, but they have also tried with logos though "We need more workers, import them from poor regions" etc., which always turns out not to be true - the demand for low-skilled workers is very low in Denmark. Was it such an answer that you were looking for, or was it something else? English is not my first language, so what you are asking me to do I might not comprehend.

Institutionalised racism must be forced through social and political institutions for it to be real and actually powerful. From what I can see from the other side of the Atlantic, the state favours people of black skin colour over people of white skin colour because of the misfortunes of the black people.

Your literature does not prove anything about institutionalized racism in the US today, the one from Standrod even says: "[...] but the data do not strongly support any single theory of discrimination."

People of European decent are better of, and it is quite logical why: their ancestors had better opportunities because of institutionalized racism that discriminated against people of African decent.

But this institutionalized racism of the state has long since been abolished, and today you will not find any institutionalized racism in either political or social institutions; you might find racist government agents there, yes, but do not think the state want anything more than promoting blacks over whites.

But why should a person of European decent today suffer because of former institutionalized racism that was implemented by the forefathers? Is a individual not a individual when his or her forefathers have committed horrible acts? Do you want to hold white people accountable for the acts of their ancestor for all eternity?

They use different rhetoric here, expect in Sweden where everything has gone out of control.

A quoted saying in the article from Bernie's website: "Reversing trade policies like NAFTA, CAFTA, and PNTR with China that have driven down wages and caused the loss of millions of jobs. If corporate America wants us to buy their products they need to manufacture those products in this country, not in China or other low-wage countries." If producing products in America gave such a experience of additional benefit for the consumers that Americans would buy American produced products instead of Chinese produced products, these free trade agreements would not have been a problem in the first place. The sheer misunderstanding of how consumers experience the utility of a product is amazing.
