Sweden Democratic Youth
Sweden Democrat Youth (Sverigedemokratisk Ungdom, SDU) is the youth league of the Swedish political party Sweden Democrats (Sverigedemokraterna).
The youth league was initially founded in 1993 as an independent youth league to its parent party. The original name was Sverigedemokraternas Ungdomsförbund, but the organization was fairly quickly renamed to Sverigedemokratisk Ungdom. The youth league was for a time abandoned by the parent party, but was again formed as an independent organization in 1998.

“The democratic youth ... lives along day by day, gratifying the desire that occurs to him, at one time drinking and listening to the flute, at another downing water and reducing, now practising gymnastic, and again idling and neglecting everything; and sometimes spending his time as though he were occupied in philosophy.”
—Plato (c. 427–347 B.C.)
“He rejected, if he did not despise, democratic principles; advocated a government as strong, almost, as a monarchy.... He believed in authority, and he had no faith in the aggregate wisdom of masses of men.”
—Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
“The death of a dear friend, wife, brother, lover, which seemed nothing but privation, somewhat later assumes the aspect of a guide or genius; for it commonly operates revolutions in our way of life, terminates an epoch of infancy or of youth which was waiting to be closed, breaks up a wonted occupation, or a household, or style of living, and allows the formation of new ones more friendly to the growth of character.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
