The Left Party are one of the strongest opponents to Chat Control (and no longer include communism in their party platform). Ylvas actual career has been with the Social Democrats, who are basically the only party strongly for Chat Control.
What is your source that the swedish Left Party voted for chat control yesterday? I haven't read that. Or are you talking about the Social Democrats which is a completely different party?
Every party except Centre Party and Sweden Democrats supported the proposal in the Committee on Justice [1], though Green Party and Left Party later said their support was a mistake [2].
"In the 1988 general elections Johansson was elected as a member of the Riksdag for the Left Party – Communists (VPK). She later left the party and joined the Social Democrats."
I mean in this case the problem isn't realy any of that, its that she has financial and personal links to American organisations (Thorn and Co.) who are in the business of selling this chat monitoring software.
It's these kind of people who really enable the far right to exist as well. Once you get to this level of lunacy, whether it's left or right is irrelevant.
I would argue she is behaving rationally. She has financial interests in organisations which sell chat monitoring software, they're going to make a shittone of money if her laws ever get passed.
She's a standard corrupt slug, not a misinformed ideologist.
