Do you people actually know anything about this party or are you just getting your panties in a twist over a nothingburger?
I could say that any party in the Swedish government is controversial, does that mean you are going to boycott everything Swedish now?
i do.
Party is run partly by an ex narc cop that got ~~fired~~ bought out for being a far-right ass
acab
Also there was an article written by a seemingly reputable outlet, so yeah I'll choose to believe them. And there's also the fact that the CEO denied nothing. You would think he would clarify the party's stance once the backlash started coming, if everyone were wrong.
Well you should not believe everything you read in articles. Even reputable outlets will be wrong when they write about something outside of their area of expertise. I think most people in here will just read the headline and some comments saying "far-right!" and believe that is true. Go to the Wikipedia pages for the Örebro Party and read them. I'll link both the Swedish and English pages for you so you can compare them. I'll also link to their own website, it is only in Swedish so you'll have to translate it yourself. But you'll see that nothing is out of the ordinary and the whole thing is blown out of proportions.

Thanks, didn't need to read any further (still did)
Would you like to elaborate? There's is nothing wrong with not liking it, but that does not put the party into some far-right category that people seem to be making up.
You think advocating for large-scale forced displacement of non-white citizens does not put the party into a far-right category? I feel like you're the one who'd need to elaborate.
Far-right doesn't mean anything these days, it's just something people default to saying when they're not really interested in debating political views(God forbid you have a slightly different view).
Having a difference of opinion is like "no Margaret, I'm glad you enjoy buttercream frosting but I'm going to stick with this apple pie." That's a difference of opinion.
"Non-whites are subhuman and don't belong in the same country as me" is not a difference of opinion, Internet Explorer.
And nobody has said that, you’re just making stuff up. So just because you disagree, are you not going to have an honest discussion?
Örebropartiet espouses assimilation, not integration. They push for remigration of people who don't assimilate.
That's worked out wonderfully under our current Tidelagsregering, no? We're sending home children who we've raised, educated, and given jobs, to countries they've never been to, because their parents fucked up, be that by accident or on purpose. Sins of the father, and all that.
I'm not disagreeing with tjänstemannaansvar, or reduced salaries for politicians, or free dental care. Those are all low-hanging fruit though, obvious to any working class person. The stickler is the extremely racist rhetoric that comes with it.
That isn't a difference of opinion, it's plain bigotry and dehumanisation.
There is nothing wrong with wanting people to assimilate or get sent back. Integration does not work with certain cultures which we have seen for the last 20 years. If you come to Sweden you are a guest and you should behave like one, right? Then if you do intend to stay you should be supportive of our values and our way of life. There is also no denying that certain people in office hold plain racist views and we have to work hard on kicking those people out of any institutions we have.
So a difference of opinion in this case is what to do with people who come here that don't contribute to society, don't follow our societal norms, and break our laws. It doesn't have anything to do with race.
What I do agree with is how they have really messed up with some cases in regards to people growing up in Sweden and then getting sent to a country they have never been in, but that is on the people in the government for not doing their job correctly. Remigration does not have to mean going all-in or doing nothing, there is a nice middle ground where you can do things on a case-by-case basis.
