EDIT: Apparently, labelling them as far-right isn’t as clear-cut from an economic perspective, but they do hold many core identity politics that are common amongst far-right parties such as:

  • Voiced support for the idea of large-scale remigration on multiple occasions, even for Swedish-born immigrants: “Sweden belongs to the Swedes”
  • Supports Sweden leaving NATO
  • In favor of Sweden leaving the European Union in a so-called “Swexit”
  • Stated that Sweden should only support other countries on the condition that it benefits Sweden and that it has to be “Sweden first”

    Debatable. While I will agree they are not Marxist socialists, I can’t agree that none of them held any socialist values. There are a lot of views that conflict with socialism, but also ones that overlapped. The problem is, the parts that overlap with socialism were only applicable to citizens, and you could only be a citizen if you’re white.

    And don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying the Nazis were good in the slightest, but there is some nuance here. Like, look at the 7 points I pulled from their 25 point plan, there are socialist values mixed in, they’re just buried and massively outweighed by literally everything else.

    1. Abolition of unearned (work and labour) incomes. Breaking of rent-slavery.
    1. In consideration of the monstrous sacrifice in property and blood that each war demands of the people personal enrichment through a war must be designated as a crime against the people. Therefore we demand the total confiscation of all war profits.
    1. We demand the nationalization of all (previous) associated industries (trusts). We demand a division of profits of all heavy industries.
    1. We demand an expansion on a large scale of old age welfare.
    1. We demand the creation of a healthy middle class and its conservation, immediate communalization of the great warehouses and their being leased at low cost to small firms, the utmost consideration of all small firms in contracts with the State, county or municipality.
    1. We demand a land reform suitable to our needs, provision of a law for the free expropriation of land for the purposes of public utility, abolition of taxes on land and prevention of all speculation in land.
    1. The State is to care for the elevating national health by protecting the mother and child, by outlawing child-labor, by the encouragement of physical fitness, by means of the legal establishment of a gymnastic and sport obligation, by the utmost support of all organizations concerned with the physical instruction of the young.
