Worth noting if you are using their VPN services or Browser.

EDIT: Apparently, labelling them as far-right isn't as clear-cut from an economic perspective, but they do hold many core identity politics that are common amongst far-right parties such as:

Voiced support for the idea of large-scale remigration on multiple occasions, even for Swedish-born immigrants: "Sweden belongs to the Swedes"
Supports Sweden leaving NATO
In favor of Sweden leaving the European Union in a so-called "Swexit"
Stated that Sweden should only support other countries on the condition that it benefits Sweden and that it has to be "Sweden first"

Based!

Looks like I am switching to Mullvad, especially since Mullvad's response to this "matter" is to uphold free speech and not join in on cancel culture.

Anyone who complaining about this needs to grow up and learn to respect other people for their opinion. I am certain many snowflakes have shopped at stores were the owner would be considered a "facist". I am certain I have shopped at businesses were the owner was politically different than me, but I won't go on a crusade to get the owner to step down over opinions.

"B-b-but he is a nazi!" its 2026, everyone is a nazi now because of snowflakes pointing and sputtering.

Looks like this user recently returned to Lemmy after a long break. I’ve seen them a few times in the past day or two, and my old user tag is still very true.

You don't know me dude. Not a MAGA guy.

And you add labels on people you disagree with? 🤣

"I must hurry, there is a "bad guy" in the thread! Tell the others!" Really?

I tagged you a year or two ago. Not because I disagreed with you, but because you were clearly a MAGA troll.
