Posted on X that mass immigration has been a catastrophe for Europe and that correcting it is the continent's most urgent issue.
“Mass immigration has been a catastrophe for Europe. There is no issue more urgent before the continent than to correct this mistake.”

In a blog post comparing wolves killing sheep in Denmark with "gypsies" he described as "foreign vagrants" camping in Copenhagen's green areas, wrote that as wolves are shot when they get out of control, "gypsies" who take over public spaces should be deported.
“When wolves get out of control, you shoot them. When gypsies take over public spaces, you deport them. This isn't hard, it isn't cruel.”

Blog post calling for an end to mass migration, which he described as "importing millions of people from a culturally incompatible third world", and saying that "millions who are already in Europe must go" through "remigration".
“It's also that millions who are already in Europe must go. Remigration has gone from a fringe concept to the mainstream discourse in record time”
In a series of posts on X over a weekend in late July 2026, replied "Good system" to a proposal by former TD Bank executive Eric Thor to tie voting power to income tax paid, under which people paying no income tax would receive no vote and those paying US$500,000 or more a year would receive up to five votes. In another post, he suggested that retirees receiving pensions should lose the right to vote, comparing them to dependants under age. Shopify did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
“Now you are a dependent and that means no voting, just like dependents under age. Enjoy the deal, let people with a stake in the future decide.”
Response: No clarification from Lütke or Shopify had been reported when CTV News and Shopifreaks covered the posts on 28 and 29 July 2026.

Blog post promoting "The Rape Gang Inquiry", a report released by Rupert Lowe, leader of the Restore Britain party, which Al Jazeera describes as far-right and which pledges mass deportations. The post describes the abuse as committed "by predominantly Pakistani Muslims against mostly White British girls".
“It details the industrial-scale sexual atrocities committed by predominantly Pakistani Muslims against mostly White British girls in the United Kingdom over decades.”

Blog post about the London march organized by far-right activist Tommy Robinson on 13 September 2025, saying he would no longer dream of moving to London because it is "no longer full of native Brits", calling the march "powerful" and its flags "heartwarming", and rejecting the "far right" label for the marchers.
“Unwilling to resign the rest of the country to the kind of demographic replacement that befell London over the last two decades.”

Blog post opposing Pride Week material on gender identity and the Gender and Sexuality Alliance meetings for primary pupils (grades 3-5) at the Copenhagen International School, calling the Pride Week activities "overt indoctrination" and the meetings "outright creepy". He reported that the school dropped the remaining Pride Week material for the semester after parent feedback.
“There's simply no responsible explanation for having kids as young as eight, or even as old as 11, in lunch and recess meetings with CIS staff to discuss gender and sexuality on school campus.”
After receiving more than 10,000 emails, tweets and messages urging Shopify to drop the online store of Breitbart News, CEO Tobias Lütke published a blog post defending the decision to keep hosting it on free-speech grounds. Fortune described Breitbart as a far-right website; TechCrunch described it as a right-wing publication that regularly publishes racist and sexist headlines and content.
“We don't like Breitbart, but products are speech and we are pro free speech”
Response: Lütke argued that applying a moral lens to which stores operate on Shopify would amount to censorship, calling commerce "a powerful, underestimated form of expression"; a spokesperson said Shopify is a "neutral platform".
