Sanna Hill, the founder of the far-right publication Nya Tider, has resigned after 18 years within Sweden’s extremist scene, expressing deep regret over her past. Having served as an election observer for the Kremlin and written for neo-Nazi platforms advocating for a white Sweden, Hill now condemns the far-right's obsession with controlling women and promoting white births. In her resignation, Hill described her past as "the dream girl of nationalists" and voiced shame for being a prominent figure among nationalists. She highlighted the overt misogyny permeating the far-right, warning about the dangerous ideologies that she wants to distance herself from.
