Swedish far-right politicians participating in this year's elections have been exposed for wanting to eradicate Muslims and "blackheads,” a derogatory term for Black people.<\/p>\n
Anti-racist magazine Expo, along with news outlet, Expressen, revealed Thursday right-wing candidates who also openly pay tribute to Nazis.<\/p>\n
Sweden Democrats (SD) politician Björn Halldin in Amal has been expressing anger at Muslims for years, according to the report.<\/p>\n
He wrote that Muslims do not belong in a civilized world and he wants to kill them.<\/p>\n
“It is time we eradicate these (expletive) Muslims,” he wrote on Facebook in 2015.<\/p>\n
Halldin shared insulting pictures of Black people using terms such as the N-word and has portrayed them as lazy.<\/p>\n
He wrote that Sweden should exterminate "blackheads."<\/p>\n
When a female police officer showed solidarity with the Black Life Matter movement, he posted an image of the officer’s face on a pornographic image.<\/p>\n
The SD politician has also participated in a hate campaign against Center leader Annie Loof by spreading an inappropriate message about her.<\/p>\n
One politician has already announced that she is resigning, according to the report.<\/p>\n
SD politician Sonja Hellström, who has spread propaganda in a Nazi demonstration resigned saying: "Consspiral? Yes, I may be, but I am not anti-Semitic," referring to claims that she is conspiratorial.<\/p>\n
Goran Nordin, who is running for SD in municipal elections, has been spreading hate speech against Muslims, and Somalis in particular.<\/p>\n
He wrote on Facebook that they are lazy and violent.<\/p>\n
After rap artist Nils Gronberg was shot dead last year, Nordin wrote: "It's no victory to live like a Negro."<\/p>\n
Lena Cederlid, who is running for the SD in Falun said she is a proud member of the racist Nazi group, DFS.<\/p>\n
In 2018, she verbally attacked refugees in a forum when she said: "You burn, rape, murder, plunder, steal, subsidy cheaters, and hate our country."<\/p>\n
During the 2014 elections, she deemed members of the Nazi Swedes' Party as "some who dare to say what others think."<\/p>\n
\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200bSeveral politicians are also believed to be members of the right-wing, racism-theological group, The Free Sweden and the DFS is led by those with Nazi backgrounds.<\/p>\n
