Why are the Swedes so racist?

I mean, what's with the neo-Nazis under every bed?
Are there neo-Nazis in Sweden? If not, then why are their mystery writers mentioning them? And if there are, then what justification do Swedes have for thinking of themselves as morally superior to us Americans?
It seems that you can't open a Swedish fiction book without finding neo-Nazis.  And yet Swedes seem to think that they're more moral than Americans.  Now this might not make sense to you, but that's because you're insensitive.  So proactice being more sensitive.

    Cultural shame pathology. In Sweden the bad guys are always "right" wing whackos.

    Well, keep in mind that Sweden spent WW2 in "friendly neutrality" with Germany.

    Could be all those proper-thinking Swedes have a small case of the guilts.
