''SWEDISH ANARCHISM'' IS ANTI-ANARCHISM !
1. ''Swedish Anarchism'', as it exists in modern Scandinavia, is a secular anti-anarchist religion. As a revisionist negation of anarchist principle; it posits a set of abstract ideas, rethoric and cannonic platitudes pretending ''libertarian socialism'' without relating them to the concrete everyday reality of working class people, the unemployed, or other marginalised social groups surviving under the ''social democratic'' LIE. The tragedy of the Scandianvian ''far left'' (sic.) is its propensity for symbolism, religiosity and fashion - the historical trademark of POSEURS.
2. The crude and patronising promotion of the ''Joe Six Pack'' workerist stereotype by Swedish ''anarchists'' (sic.) only reinforces the Liberal promoted idea of the worker as ''brute'' to be whipped into obedience. That "Swedish Anarchists" in their attitude towards workers adopt a ''leftist'' mirrior image of the Liberal disdain for the working class amounts to a PASSIVE AGGRESSIVE ACCEPTANCE OF CORPORATE CAPITALIST PERCEPTION MANAGEMENT AS IT FUNCTIONS TO PERPETUATE THE SYSTEM OF WAGE SLAVERY. Real anarchists want freedom from work.
3. Anarchism purged of ''Swedish'' revisionism becomes LIBERTARIAN. Anarchism without ''Swedishness'' is the fight for personal autonomy and voluntary association AGAINST THE POLITICAL STATE. Anarchists define the political state as the system of law making and law enforcement symbolised by the Parliament, the Police and the ''social democratic'' Party-State bureaucracy. Anarchism is EXTRA-LEFTIST - it fights against the political state independent of any strictures and limits externally imposed by the establishment ''Red'', ''Green'' or ''Blue'' parliamentary political religions. While the Anarchist seeks to ABOLISH State Power; the Leftist and its ''Swedish Anarchist'' variable fight to TAKE State power. The ''Swedish Anarchists'' want to become the new state oligarchy. They want their Swedish Trade Union State to replace the ''social democratic'' capitalist one.
4. In the process of organising dissent and agitating for their goals; real anarchists seek to enter into clandestine voluntary associations (i.e. 'Affinity Groups') with one another. They do so to coordinate leaderless resistance that is based on un-identified networks that cannot be penetrated by police, hostile fascists or social democrat saboteurs. Anarchists do not advertise themselves, rather they operate from clandestinity. The ''models'' for contemporary anarchists should be the 'Zamisdat' network in the U.S.S.R circa 1977-1983 during its ''post-constitutionalist'' period. Prior to its hijacking by CIA funded Russian Nationalist elements.
5. The putative ''Swedish Anarchist'' mileu in Sweden is actually a TOY UNION INITIATIVE. It has no mass following and no recognition among people who work or among the unemployed or those that the ''social democratic'' LIE keeps in a state of social marginalisation. Swedish Anarchism is a SECT. Its members are for the most part former ''social democrats'' (sic.) who joined "Swedish Anarchism" as a protest in the late 1990's responding to the official ''social democrat'' (sic.) Party-State turn towards the neo-liberal and xenophobic far right. The ''Swedish Anarchist'' mileux is at bottom a SOCIAL PROTESTANT formation. Swedish Anarchism bears the same realtionship to the offical ''social democrat'' (sic.) Party-State that the Lutheran Church one bore in its day to the Roman Catholic Church. ''Swedish Anarchism'' is to the ''social democrats'' in the Sweden of 2005 what Lutheranism was to the Catholic Church in 1630.
6. ''Swedish Anarchism'' IS NOT Anarchism. As a tendency it split from the Anarchist movement in 1996. In its founding manufesto it clearly states that it is ''not anarchist''. Yet, when it suits for the purposes of fooling Libertarian youth into its sectarian clutches the ''Seedish Anarchists'' are fond of pretending to be ''anarchist''. When they sense they can milk political benefit from saying they are ''not anarchist'' then they change their tune as it suits. So which way is it ? ''Anarchist'' or ''not anarchist'' ?
7. The Authentic Anarchist movement aims to extend direct democracy into the economic and the social spheres by abolishing the political state. The Anarchist concept of democracy is not political representative or limited in an economic reductionist manner to ''workplaces''. The anarchist concept of democracy is POST-POLITICAL, stateless and participatory. Anarchists want to replace the political nation-state and the system of private power it protects with social-economic organisation based on the voluntary association of cooperative groups. The ideal is the emergence of clandestine, un-identified popular movement (as in Rumania 1989 or Argentina 2001) that shatters the legitimacy of State power. The political State collapses after civic resistance overwhelms the police and state security forces.
THIS remains the vision of Mikhail Bakunin, Emma Goldmann and Enricco Malattesta. Insofar as ''Swedish Anarchism'' is a revisionist economic reductionist deviation from real anarchism it is a defacto NEGATION of Anarchist anti-politics.

''... the democratic Republic is no more than a camouflaged form of bourgeois dictatorship. At the height of capitalism, when this represented a progressive factor, the bourgeoisie could allow itself the luxury of conceding a series of "democratic" liberties – considerably limited and full of conditions, because of its economical and political domination – to the working classes. Today in the imperialist era, "the final stage of capitalism", the bourgeoisie, in order to overcome its internal contradictions, is forced to resort to the establishment of regimes of brutal dictatorship (fascism) which destroy even the paltry democratic liberties.''
- Andres Nin. (1937)
