Avpixlat

Avpixlat (lit. 'de-pixelated') was a Swedish online news site and blog with close ties to the Sweden Democrats and its parliamentarian Kent Ekeroth.[1][2] The site describes itself as "an independent Sweden-friendly website for news and opinions".[3][4][5] In 2017, it was replaced by Samhällsnytt.

The site has been labeled a racist hate-site, xenophobic and right-wing extremist by Swedish and international media.[6][7] The site leaned close to the counter-jihad movement and supported Israel.[8]
