The problem reaches far beyond the far right. All the "center" or "progressive" political powers in the west are complicit to various degrees. From the German Greens to the US Democrats, enabling genocide is the political reality of people who otherwise claim to be for human rights, sustainability and other progressive causes. Now so far the genocide was mostly against brown people, so these kind of self perceived progressives were able to delude themselves as their unacknowledged racism guided them. Now if "one of them" is murdered. A white Swedish young women, who their sons and daughters see as a role model, who the "liberal" press used to praise... It will force the realization upon them, that they too are targeted in this genocide and the genocide will not stop at brown people.
