    I know little of Swedish politics. What defines someone has far right in Sweden?

      Idk but probably the same as anywhere else. Racism, misogyny and a good portion of fear and hate for people that stick out in any way. Populism, simple thruths and wishing things were like at least a few decades ago.

      Topics that work every time are crime and immigration.

        Watch snabba cash on Netflix and you know where this comes from.

        The situation in the Swedish… Banlieus is well known across Europe. It’s not good to say the least.

          Thanks for the recommendation, will watch. Judging by the first minutes before and after the trailer, it’s about gang crime and a ‘less than optimal’ integration effort into normal society? And she is going to bridge the gap in some (positive or presumably negative) way?

            Yes. It is about failed integration. Which leaves only one out for a lot of people. Ruthless gangs.

            How it ends for her? I’m not going to spoiler that!! :)

        Well I’m confused. I googled it and it appears the Swedish democrats are the far right party of Sweden.

            Agree. I think we shouldn’t engage with people with that kind of vocabulary on the internet. I’ve tried and it’s always wasted. And they felt the need to reply and in a few sentences inadvertently confirm every stereotype I listed… Okay, to be fair, misogyny is still missing.

            I actually lived in those neighborhoods. Unlike 99% of the keyboard warriors here. Incompatible values. When you see a 3 yo girl wearing a hijab on a bus in sweden, it breaks my heart. Especially given the history behind the creating of the hijab rules. Most of you are ignorant and operate based on US politics in mind here, with absolute disregard of the situation in the EU. And btw, I am a EU migrant myself.

        I’m not a fan of the political spectrum commonly used for that reason. Stalin and Hitler had more in common than differences.

        Sweden strives for equality between genders and why I’m curious what the party stands for.

        In America if we said traditional values, typically it means a house wife.

        In Sweden I can’t imagine in meaning that same thing.
