Daniel Berntsson, founder of Mullvad, gave a personal donation of 5 million SEK (roughly 450,000€) in 2025 to Örebropartiet. This enormous donation accounted for 72% of the party’s revenue in 2025.
How does this affect Mullvad’s legitimacy as a company advocating for a free and open internet, while also funding a political party whose agenda seem to contradict these values? The official party website (in Swedish) can be found via the link below.
It is described as that, but I have doubts that any “left” tendencies in there is just to make facism more effective. As I remember a pod episode of the head of that party, then he talks about how Marx described workers as alienated cogs in a machine, basically, and that we should use that by controlled sterilization of immigrants turn their offspring into cogs for the swedish industry/society. Sort of. I don’t know if that really could be classified as a continuation of Marxist thought, but sure.
Yeah, that guy sounds insane.
