The debate over Swedish ethnicity has sparked a new major row within the Sweden Democrats” leadership. When Richard Jomshof defends the importance of ethnic Swedes remaining the majority, Mattias Karlsson launches a fierce counterattack and calls his stance ”repugnant”. But Karlsson also accuses Jomshof of holding views he has not explicitly expressed. Shortly thereafter, the entire exchange disappeared from Facebook.
The Sweden Democrats’ internal conflict over what it means to be Swedish continues to escalate. On Monday, the party leadership found itself Mattias Karlsson and Richard Jomshof in a public argument on Facebook. This came after Karlsson once again attacked ethno-nationalism as ”immoral” and defended the party’s principle of ”open Swedishness” (which means that anyone can become ”Swedish,” a principle that Karlsson was a driving force behind).
As far as Karlsson is concerned, language, culture, identity, and loyalty are sufficient for a person to be considered ”Swedish.” Jomshof does not disagree with this and shares the view that people can become ”culturally Swedish.” However, he also emphasizes the importance of the historically Swedish population’s historical ties to Sweden.
Jomshof Defends the Swedish Popular Majority
”I stand by my belief that there is value in Swedes constituting the majority of the population in their own country, now and in the future.”
Jomshof warned that Swedish traditions and holidays are being eroded in multicultural areas that Swedes are choosing to flee. He also revealed that there are people within the party who smear and accuse ordinary people who share his views of racism.
Karlsson: ”A despicable attitude”
Mattias Karlsson responded by arguing that Jomshof’s reasoning implies that Sweden really belongs only to people with the right genes or ethnic background. He also claimed that assimilated immigrants would therefore be regarded as ”second-class Swedes.”.
”I maintain that this is an immoral and despicable stance, and it is definitely not cultural nationalism.”
Jomshof, however, had not explicitly advocated that people should be treated differently based on their origin. His stated position was that there is value in ethnic Swedes continuing to constitute the majority of the population. What Karlsson is doing is exactly what the left and the media establishment usually do: accusing those who defend the rights of ethnic Swedes of wanting to oppress others.
The entire exchange disappeared
After the controversy, the comment thread disappeared from Facebook, which had seen the screenshots.
At the same time, Jomshof’s future in the SD’s top ranks has been called into question. According to earlier reports from TV4, people close to the party leadership have discussed his position following his remarks about “Swedishness.”.
On X Opinion leader Mr. Husis reacted to the conflict and expressed support for Jomshof.
”Jomshof seems to be the only one who dares to express any kind of opposition.”, he writes.
Cultural nationalism—or whatever you want to call it—means population replacement. Just because Karlsson is married to a non-Swede and feels compelled to defend this, it implies that open Swedishness is completely erasing Swedish culture. In reality, Karlsson and the other SD leaders know this, but they don’t care. There are no words to describe this betrayal.
Once again—no ethnic Swedes, no Swedish culture left. I hope more and more people realize this so the SD can keep plummeting in the polls. This is what “open Swedishness” really means. The SD is a Trojan horse more dangerous than the communists, because at least with the communists, everyone knows where they stand.
Mattias Karlsson, go to bed.
The traitor Expo Karlsson shows his true colors and, of course, gets support from the No. 1 traitor in the “Democrats of Betrayal,” Jimmie Åkesson.
I hope that everyone (except Jomshoff) will burn in Hell when they close their eyes one day.
There seems to be no limit to how much this despicable party (SD) can betray all those who voted it into the Riksdag.
Jomshoff seems to be the only sane person in the party—if you can trust a Sweden Democrat, that is?
But regardless, I’m going to make sure that everyone I talk to who votes for the Sweden Democrats has a change of heart, and I’m going to tell them what despicable views they actually stand for; We have to make sure this treacherous party loses as many votes as possible; they need to get a taste of “Go Woke, Go Broke.”.
I'm predicting they'll get less than 10% in the next election, and in the election after that, they'll fall below the threshold.
It'll be interesting to see if this "skull-and-crossbones" party analyzes a major election defeat in 2030, and if the DPM then says they won't change a thing?????
But then again, maybe. If Expo Karlsson retires—and Jimmie does the same, since they’ve secured a sky-high pension—and Vinge takes over (Ha ha ha), well, then the party will plummet and vanish into thin air.
And keep in mind, even if the party were to return to its old values, the train—with its last car already gone—has already left the station; after this massive betrayal, there’s no turning back—they’re absolutely nothing in my eyes now,
I agree with everyone here. Those who are still SD supporters haven't understood a thing….
And I agree with what you wrote. 👍🏻
The SD is a traitorous party that all true Swedes should leave, since Mattias Karlsson and his ilk have sunk so low that they’re collaborating with Expo just to stay in power.
