You're basically saying that somehow the socialist idealism of Denmark is failing (despite its very high tax rates) and that now that it is failing people need to go further left, to communism? ("seizing and redistributing the wealth").
What changed in Denmark between the 90s and now?
Why do people, even in Denmark, send their kid to private schools if they can afford it?
Tax rates have always been very high in Denmark, you're advocating for them to be even higher?

Blood to make sure to make more of what didn't work?
Denmark has been lurching towards the right for a while (from a Swedish perspective). There is more anti-immigrant sentiment and a solid foundation for keeping migrants out. (You need an address to get a CPH number, but you can't get an address without a CPH number for example).
I'm not saying they're wrong, I don't know. But that's the perspective from Malmo which is the closest major city to Denmark in Sweden... in fact Malmo is sometimes referred to a suburb of Copenhagen. (this is also controversial)

I'm not speaking on behalf of the OP here, but my interpretation is that what changed _was_ people sending their kids to private schools instead of intermingling as they did before. I believe you are asking about the "why", why did they start sending them to private schools or why did they stop sending them to public or community schools.
That could be a multi-faceted answer, and it could be very difficult to pin down even what the dominant factors are. I would also like to know about Denmark.
I will add that this same problem exists in some form in my own home town, so I don't know if it's something unique to Denmark. My guess is that it's probably something to do with competition in generation from many more people consuming increasing amounts of a diminishing supply of resources.
"now that it is failing people need to go further left, to communism?"
Is it a feature of American politics to bring up communism in every discussion?
It's always some comedic parody too, like 'race mixing is communism' or 'climate change is a communist plot'. Basically a boogeyman of American politics
I don't know why you're being downvoted. Let's put our political inclinations aside, and just marvel in the long list of contradictions and unintentional negative commentary that someone managed to produce by trying to voice the opposite. With a large enough microphone, this fellow HN member would bring to fall any political affiliation they decide to join and support.
