As a fellow swede I just don't agree with anything you have to say. Outing politicians who are ranting online is fair game as far as I'm concerned. The Sweden Democrats attract racists and their roots are racist, there's just no way to deny that - they mostly follow the same neo-fascist agenda of similar parties throughout Europe.

I don't see how that has anything to do with that Expressen did to ordinary non-political citizens.
>Expressen har kartlagt chefer, företagare och en docent som hatar anonymt på Avpixlat.
> - Det som ni håller på med är helt avskyvärt. Ni försöker bara hindra folk från att rösta på Sverigedemokraterna, säger Jim Olsson, 67, docent i fysikalisk kemi.
Translation:
>Expressen has researched and tracked managers, entrepreneurs and a docent who hates online at Avpixlat [immigrant focused news site, according to big media a hate-site, my annotation]
>- What you are doing is despicable. You are trying to stop people from voting on the Sweden Democrats, says Jim Olsson, 67, docent in physical chemistry.
Disclaimer: I dont vote nor sympathize with the Sweden Democrats, i just find this gestapo/social-shaming behavior despicable by one of Swedens largest news-papers.
I'm not arguing against anonymity, i am arguing that there is a ethical difference between releasing information about that there's a difference between what a politician says publicly and what the politician really thinks, and the same situation with a private citizen.
A politician wants to change the laws and circumstances for our lives, and he/she gets a mandate to do that by convincing the voters that they have aligned interests.
In this case though it was mostly normal citizens who weren't politicians and they used illegal methods in order to gain personal information about them.
