    Among the party’s main issues are lowered political salaries, reduced bureaucracy, civil servant responsibility and assimilation. The party also wants to introduce free dental care in Örebro County and open to more direct democracy. The party has been described as both right- and left-wing populist with nationalist and Marxist elements.

    The party in question. Straight out of wikipedia. Bug hey, fascist sounds better, so why check?

      Sorry but, if you can be described as both far right and far left simultaneously, I don’t have any trust in you, you are more than likely a fascist. I don’t know how you can cope with this additional descriptions:

      they are “racists, fascists and nazis”.[41] The party has also been described as far-right.[42]

      the ideology differed from classical Marxism as the line of conflict for the Örebro Party doesn’t go between workers and capitalists but rather between those who are productive and those who “undeservedly” lives off of taxpayer-financed transfers.

      The left-wing newspaper Flamman has described the Örebro Party as ethnic nationalist.

      and lastly, and this is coming from their leader:

      we must deport these damn parasites who sit and live at our expense.

      I checked your source, it sounds pretty fascist to me.

      Well, TBF, his business model is reliant on fascists trying to spy on your private life.

      Sounds like he’s just trying to preserve his livelyhood.

      There is a certain amount on sarcasm here.

      72% of the party’s funding Also more than 27x their entire previous year’s funding

      It’s the founder who owns 50% of the company. He holds majority sway. He directs the company. Elon only owns 15% of Tesla for reference.

      According to data collected by DonationWatch, 2025 was the most lucrative year in the party’s history, netting a total of 5.58 million SEK. For comparison, the party received just 202,000 SEK in total donations throughout 2024.

      Can someone clarify out how the party that the Mullvad founder donated to is fascist?

      I looked into it the other day (can’t remember the name of the party now) and immigration seemed to be the only controversial aspect. Everything else seemed okay to me and even fairly progressive.

      Plenty of shit nowadays is actually fascist and I’m not confident that applies here.

        “Örebropartiet’s obsession is “re-emigration” - i.e., sending all immigrants out of the country - which their leader Markus Allard describes as getting rid of “parasites.””

        Örebro politician Markus Allard said in a debate that “we have to send out these fucking parasites”.

        Note also discussing immigration is very different from discussing re-emigration. Most clearly defining political ideology for this party seems to be populist national conservative. Such an ideology can easily pivot to Nazi like far-right fascism once there is enough support. It is a much easier route to take than going far right from the start.

        Generally, “othering” another group and blaming issues on that group while calling for that group to be expelled from a region seems to be how a lot of that sort of thing gets going. Fascism looks at people and sees some of them as people and the rest of them as not people. It gets worse from there.

        Sorry for the wall of text, copying and pasting from some of my other comments, I’ll bold the main points to create the throughline:

        What, by definition, constitutes fascism?

        Merriam Webster

        often Fascism : a populist political philosophy, movement, or regime (such as that of the Fascisti) that exalts nation and often race above the individual, that is associated with a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, and that is characterized by severe economic and social regimentation and by forcible suppression of opposition

        At the core of fascism is loyalty to tribe, ethnic identity, religion, tradition, or, in a word, nation. —Jason Stanley

        Just to make sure we’re not looking at a singular definition, let’s look at Wikipedia too

        Fascism (/ˈfæʃɪzəm/ FASH-iz-əm) is a far-right, authoritarian, and ultranationalist political ideology and movement that rose to prominence in early-20th-century Europe.[1][2][3] Fascism is characterized by support for a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the perceived interest of the nation or race, and strong regimentation of society and the economy.[3][4] Opposed to communism, democracy, liberalism, pluralism, and socialism,[5][6] fascism is at the far-right of the traditional left–right spectrum.[1][6][7]

        And now, let’s look at what the Örebro party’s own stated platform, which received 72% of its funding from the Mullvad founder, which also amounted to 27 times their total funding in 2024:

        Some of its key issues include strong secularism, a 30-hour workweek with retained pay, lowered wages for politicians, ending taxes on energy and fuel, ending taxpayer funding of what it sees as wasteful sculptures, monuments and art, large-scale remigration, expanded social housing, a stricter assimilation policy, and free dental care.[3][4]

        https://www.friatider.se/markus-allard-om-andra-generationens-invandrare-de-ska-ocksa-ut

        Örebro Party leader Markus Allard goes to the election on expulsions. He opens to withdraw citizenship and also expel second generation of immigrants – even if they were born in Sweden. “I’m prepared to cross corpses,” he said.

        One suggestion that he has is that citizenship and permanent residence permits can be torn up – with reference to “Sweden is the country of Swedes”.

        In a section of Yoshi’s Podcast, Allard develops his view on expulsions and explains that he prepared to “go over corpses” to bring home unwanted immigrants. The host notes that there will be no beautiful sight when, for example, immigrant mothers who have been on maternity leave for 15 years are to be deported together with their children. “It’s not going to be pretty to send these people home,” he said. Markus Allard agrees, but says: I think you can handle that optics. Even the children will need to be deported, he explains.

        He further explains that many of the problems relate to second-generation immigrants. They are going out too. Even if they were born in Sweden, because they have no natural connection to Sweden. They are not Swedes. They have not become Swedes. It says Sweden in the passport, but they have not been interested in becoming part of Sweden. There’s a difference. It’s a qualitative difference," Allard said

        And what’s remigration?

        Remigration is a far-right concept referring to the ethnic cleansing[1] via mass deportation of non-white minority populations, especially immigrants and sometimes including native-born citizens, to their place of racial ancestry.[2][3]

        So fascism is about racial and national purity and hierarchy, as we defined, and the Orebro party supports remigration, which is a concept of forcing immigrants out of countries to preserve the purity of “culture” and the race of the nation.

        “Sweden is for the Swedes”

        “Israel is for Israelis”

        “America is for Americans”

        “Germany is for the Germans”
