    Default Sweden Failed. Will America?

    This is what the right wing wants for America, and especially here in Oregon. Their actions failed (like everything they touch) in Sweden, and they will here too:

    "Stefan Lofven, the Swedish prime minister, looked shaken as he addressed his nation Monday, announcing some of the kinds of restrictions Sweden had specifically avoided earlier in this pandemic year. Gatherings will be limited to eight people or less. Bars can’t serve alcohol after 10 p.m.

    Calling it a “new normal” and warning that things will get worse, Lofven said, “It is a clear and sharp signal to every person in our country as to what applies in the future. Don’t go to the gym, don’t go to the library, don’t have dinner out, don’t have parties — cancel!”

    https://www.deseret.com/opinion/2020...lofven-vaccine
    "2Timothy 3 "But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away"

    By all means. Lock everything down, and do it for at least 6 months. It will cull the herd, and the social unrest will hasten the end.

    No. Why? Because this is America and NOT Sweden, bitch!
    If leftards wanna die, they can call for lockdowns in America.
    They may not get what they want, but they may get culled from the herd.

    According to World0Meters Sweden is 23th in deaths per million...a lot of counties have done worse...I dont accept the conclusion that they have failed....what is the argument?
    This illegal illegitimate regime that runs America is at fault...not me.... they do not represent me and I have long objected to their crimes against humanity.

    Have you noticed how the so-called experts keep turning up wrong on COVID, and most everybody pretends that it did not happen?

    Prepare yourself, this is going to hurt.

    Actually, I have a hard time believing that. What is your source?

    Sweden had a failed covid policy, true enough.
    The right does NOT want to be like Sweden, however.

    Sweden is a modern, civilized nation.
    Red state America is a shithole.
    Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel. Samuel Johnson, 1775
    Religion....is the opiate of the people. Karl Marx, 1848
    Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose. Kris Kristofferson, 1969

    The right does want the same open policy when it comes to fighting the pandemic. They oppose any restriction in spite of the surge, the overfilling of morgues, hospitals, etc., and the lack of preventive equipment.
