Between these, I think a lot of Danes would fail to get naturalized lol

They do. The yearly citizenship test is very common for many danes to fail. Best I have seen is when a bunch of DF politicians took it, and a bit more than half failed it - was amazing.

If we expose foreignes to tests like these to get citizenship, we should kinda set the same expectations of current citizens! Like, fail this test and you don't get a passport, the right to vote, etc.

or maybe its just a test to see if you can actually care to give a shit about Denmark enough to spend ½ hour reading a pamphlet

Then ordinary citizens would have no issue parsing it either? If you don't give a shit, don't get rights.

if its about voting rights it should be a proper test, not read a pamphlet and put down 30 x

The issue with that kind of process will always be, who gets to decide the questions and how difficult the questions should be.
Though I wouldn't be surprised if most would fail to get most basic questions about our political system right.
I remember the numbers we got presented during the political behavioral classes on PoliSci were fairly depressing when you asked respondent what parties were in goverment, who the current state minister was, etc.

Devils advocate: it's not like they're expected to just know the answers in the test, there's reading material specifically to prepare for it

A LOT of it is acutally common knowledge or things you learn in 9-10 klasse

I would argue that some of the stuff you need to read for is pointless. It should be a test about how our society works, cultural norms and such. Things that are relevant to our society

I've lived in Denmark my entire life, but i'm Dutch- and because i've been out of work due to my mental health, i'll have to wait another 10 years (assuming i dont have a relapse), before i'll be able to start the process. It fucking sucks, i didnt have the money for the process when i turned 18, so now i'll have to wait until i'm atleast 33 🥲

Det er altså på ingen måde svært at bestå den test - folk hører åbenbart ikke efter i skolen eller gider at få sig basal dannelse + man kan læse op på de emner, testen omhandler. Tog den for et par år siden og den var ret nem at gennemføre.

Testen har været ændret flere gange fordi den ofte har indeholdt en masse spørgsmål som de fleste danskere ikke engang ville vide. Der har været mange nyhedsartikler om hvor dårlige de tests har været.
Selvfølgelig kan man læse op på den, men nogle af spørgsmålene er fuldkommen irrelevante. Som for eksempel navnet på en dansk arkitekt og lignende. Den burde handle om vores kultur og hvordan vores samfund fungerer. Ting som er værd at vide generelt
