note that this is a local party, and as such their policies are focused on their local area only. apparently they plan to be on the national ballot this year but i've not seen any policy changes to reflect that. reading from an interview the founder did in 2022, he had to start his own branch of the left party youth wing because there wasn't one where he lived, and as soon as they became official he found out that they didn't like his opinions so he was forced out. as for what those opinions are...

– Vi började fråga oss vad som var relevant i människors vardag. Är radikalfeminismen relevant? Nej. Är frågan om hur många kön som finns relevant? Nej. Är gamla mossiga resonemang om huruvida Sovjet var en arbetarstat relevant? Nej.

Han upprördes av skatteslöseri och kommunala skrytprojekt som genomfördes samtidigt som utanförskapet växte.

– Jag tog frågan till nutid. Vilken klass tjänar egentligen på den förda migrationspolitik som lett till utanförskap och kriminalitet?

"we started asking ourselves what was relevant in the daily lives of people. Is radical feminism relevant? No. Is the question of how many genders there are relevant? No. Are tired old arguments on whether the Soviet Union was a worker-led state relevant? No."

He was upset by wasted tax money and bragadocious projects the local government spearheaded while social exclusion kept growing.

"I brought the question to present day. What class makes money from the immigration policies that have led to exclusion and criminality?"

He's coined a term for the class of people he says are the main tax money wasters; "transferiat", as in the macroeconomic concept of transfer payments. these people, he says, just profit from the system without adding value. as examples, he lists "genusvetare, mångfaldsstrateger, HBTQI-certifikatörer [,] i viss mån även journalister (inom public service). Det finns även ett lägre skikt av transferiatet – de bidragsberoende, framför allt den stora massan av arbetslösa invandrare som kommit att hamna i utanförskapsområden": gender studies graduates, diversity strategists, LGBTQ-certifiers, journalists in publicly funded media, and unemployed immigrants.

...honestly i was with him for a while there. i thought he was gonna go on a tirade against "bullshit jobs", but instead he went off the deep end. later on he cites "public art" and "community centers in areas where more limmigrants live" as a waste of taxpayer money.
