Der schwedische Premierminister bietet einen Deal an, der dazu führen könnte, dass Rechtsextreme in die Regierung aufgenommen werden

Centrists ready to throw in with (neo)-Nazis just to win. Shows you how much centrists care about democracy. Go see how well that has worked in Finland, highest unemployment in the EU and growing inequality.

Regardless of what we think of the SDs, this is a very risky political move for a center-right party to say: “ If you vote for us, we will bring in the far-right“ This is very likely to discourage center right voters from voting for them because if those voters wanted the far right in government they would just vote for the far right.

Voting is for fools, want real results, become a revolutionary and use that to take back your country.

It very much looks like the experience of Sweden will soon be studied closely by Germany (and France).

 For example, the CDU and AfD could already take a controlling stake almost anywhere in the state parliaments, wherever they want.

Can someone explain what the Swedish far right actually means? Like what are their views when compared to far right in for example Germany or Slovakia?

The most annoying part is that the Social Democrats refuse to present a real alternative, pushing for mostly centrist policy or straight up the same police as the centre right.

All the while they have to work with the centre party (actually centre right, just refuses to work with the far right in any way) who draw hard lines against working with the „left Party“ (previously communist but haven’t been communist for quite a few years now) and demand to keep the disastrous system of for profit friskolor (publicly funded private schools, I think the US calls them school vouchers for example) that multiple studies have shown increase segregation, causd the students to come out less prepared for university but with higher grades than municipality run schools all the while bagging tons of tax money into private pockets of large corporations and their owners.

Edit. I should also add that the Social Democrats were even flirting with wanting to form a government with moderaterna (the traditional right wing party) instead of working with the left Party which shows how little is left of the Social Democrats of old.

can we have a definition of „far right“ here?

because the way i understand the far right is a group of ultra nationalists and ethno-centrists (this means not just white people btw.) who call for violence and the extermination of everyone who isnt part of their cultural or ethnic identity group.

im thinking of literal nazis, jihadists, the BLF in south africa and similar extremist groups and their direct supporters.

the term has been misused so many times in the past to people who merely call for harsher immigration regulation that its not even real anymore.

so when you guys say „far right“, what does this even mean in this context?

Because appeasment always worked so well in history…

This is the actually disgusting part

>The Swedish prime minister, Ulf Kristersson, has said that he will allow the far-right [Sweden](https://www.theguardian.com/world/sweden) Democrats (SD) into government for the first time – and give its members key ministerial posts – **if his coalition wins the next general election**.

Let me tell you something. The first time SD felt like a threat to ruling government was in 2014 election when they become I believe the 3rd biggest party, and they’ve only grown stronger since then. This has had the effect of the ruling coalitions have had to adopt policies that INCLUDE more stringent migration; one of the core tenants of SD, only so that they won’t lose voters – At least this is my interpretation. The emergence of SD has effectively made S and M (basically the only other two parties that are of any significant size) to become turncoats.

Basically, we’ll do what we have to do to stay in power. I always felt politics should be „this is our idea, and if you agree with it, vote for us“. Not „we’ll adopt our policy based on what wins us votes“.

I find it disgusting.. [Besides, S and M coalitions have been ruling for like 44 years](https://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lista_%C3%B6ver_Sveriges_statsministrar) (many times consecutive terms) so maybe it’s time for a change.

Funny how it’s always “we are shifting right to keep the far right at bay” and doing wildly unpopular shit, and yet never once do they shift an inch left. Almost as if they are more motivated by money than voter share or the wellbeing of their constituents

They’ve had 90% the same politics anyway in congress(riksdag).

This PM is not very well liked, if it’s any consolation. He’s just an out of touch rich asshole who only cares about the rich, and the rich in stockholm particularly.
