They are not far right, AFAICT they are “right” Marxists, probably most similar to Albanian Hoxhaism.
If you aren’t familiar with splits inside Marxism-Leninism, the “left” is most often represented by Trotskyism with the “right” tendency being more like Stalinism and North Korean Juche. (Note that these left/right terms aren’t universally used or applied because every faction claims to be correct.)
I think it is more accurate to think of them as syncretic. (that is what Wikipedia has them listed as) Their main focus seems to be on nationalism/anti-immigration rather than socialism. Many fascist parties historically flirt with socialist policies as a way to make inroads with working class voters so it is not always straightforward.
Whoever openly spouts the concept of "remigration" [1] has no business being called anything else but far-right.
> In its political program for the 2026 Swedish general election the Örebro Party writes that they want to "stop the ongoing population replacement" and make Sweden a monocultural society, rather than a multicultural one. The party also writes that this "will be a Sweden where ethnic Swedes are once again the clear majority."
In particular, the "population replacement" is the most clear sign. That's as antisemitic and far-right as it gets [2].
Is Kim Jong Un far right? Seems like a stretch. (North Korea’s immigration policies are even more restrictive than what they want.)
Btw, Malcom Kyeyune, who has a podcast with the party’s founder, is a black child of an immigrant, adopts an avatar on Twitter of Kim Jong Un’s sister, and semi-ironically stans for North Korea on a regular basis.
yes, obviously he is. There is also no law of the universe that prevents a black person from interviewing a far right person or supporting a far right party.
Many left ultras (broadly defined, including Trotskyites, leftcoms, and radlibs alike) have somehow adopted the position that only groups who identify with their cultural agenda qualify as “left”, which is frankly a perversion of the left-right descriptor. It’s why the whole left-right thing should be abandoned, as the waters are hopelessly muddied.
Somehow you now have “radical” neoliberals (lol) and leftcoms both claiming the mantle of leftism while simultaneously casting nearly the ENTIRE HISTORY of Marxism as “rightist”. Like how the fuck is Stalin a rightist? Yet this isn’t an uncommon position in the internet discourse. If you disagree, you are a “tankie” even if you aren’t a Marxist, but are simply fucking educated and understand the history of left economics and politics.
As for "how is Stalin a rightist", how isn't he? Looking at his Wikipedia bio he seems basically indistinguishable from Hitler, but he called it a different word.
No, I am falling back on the entire body of left scholarship with the exception of the French Theory school and the non-DSA New Left, who have hijacked the “left” term and refuse to acknowledge its history.
The DSA, an actually serious left-wing group, acknowledges the broad spectrum of left movements and does not attempt to gatekeep. I would say that ultras should learn from them, but ultras are part of a religion, not a political movement—they are not willing to tolerate dissent.
(Also, the poor state of modern leftism is likely a result of well-documented intelligence and law enforcement interference in left movements. Since the 1960s they have been heavily involved in promoting the “cultural” left over the economic left. This would explain the emergence of the with-us-or-against-us tendency among ultras, it’s a great tool to divide and conquer.)
