For the past four years, the 'Junge Tat' has been creating a stir with its actions and slogans. Expert groups classify the organization as right-wing extremist, while they see themselves as a group of right-wing activists. How extreme are they and what are the goals of the 'Junge Tat'? Reporter Samuel Konrad met with them.

Tobias Lingg (23), Co-Leader of the 'Junge Tat,' believes there is only one way: to the right. He thinks that his generation is worse off than that of his parents, so there needs to be a political shift to the right. According to him, the homeland is worth every sacrifice, even legal persecution or left-wing extremist violence.

The group perceives Switzerland and Europe as threatened by migration. Their goal is 'remigration' and the 'preservation of Swiss identity,' explains founder Manuel Corchia (23). Foreign people may live in Switzerland, but they can never truly belong. The mixing of religions and ethnicities must be stopped. Former climate activist Selina Dienemann (22) also supports these views and has a strong opinion on queer people and transgender individuals: 'People should not be able to wake up every morning wondering whether they are a unicorn or a sheep, but should simply acknowledge that there are men and women.'

The 'Junge Tat' follows the right-wing extremist 'Identitarian Movement' led by the Austrian Martin Sellner and Götz Kubitschek, who is classified as right-wing extremist in Germany. The group is well connected and seeks to bring their ideology into Swiss politics and society.

Overall, the 'Junge Tat' exhibits extreme right-wing views and aims to promote a nationalist, anti-immigration agenda
