Selective outrage when seeing the phrase "right wing" due to conservaphobia.
There was discussion following on the historical inaccuracy of equating Nazis with any sort of political wing, but it was all deleted for apparently going too off topic.

Show the victims some respect. It's too early to talk about sword violence.

Oh I don't mean in that sense, I mean in the historical sense of Sweden. It is one of the areas where the great Vikings came from.

Replace the sword with a gun and the number of deaths explode exponentially.

According to the Swedish police, Anton Pettersson, the 21 year old who committed this atrocity, has expressed numerous right wing views on social media. In his apartment police found a manifesto/letter explaining his actions. Due to the content of this letter, Swedish police are classifying this as a hate crime.

You can look this up on any major Scandinavian news site.
