===Moderaterna and Christian Democrats===
'''Moderaterna''' (Moderates) is the center-right party that headed the coalition government along with the '''Christian Democrats''' that are blamed by many Swedes for exacerbating Sweden's immigration crisis. Moderaterna was tossed out of the leadership role in the 2014 elections. The SD has reserved some of its strongest criticism for the Moderates and its prime minister, [[Fredrik Reinfeldt]], for its extreme-[[open borders]] immigration policy.

The party has even called for the expulsion of Hungary's conservative [[Fidesz]] from the [[European People's Party]] group in the EU parliament.<ref>De la Baum, Maïa (February 22, 2019).

Sweden alone among European and Western powers never had a native [[fascist]] movement or party. The fear of being labeled "racist" runs very deep among whatever political persuasion one is affiliated with, and because of its neutral stance during [[World War II]], Swedes still feel a collective sense of guilt that they as a nation didn't do enough to oppose [[Hitler]], and have been compensating for it through humanitarianism ever since.
