You haven't followed what has happened to medicine since Obamacare and all its bureaucracy. There has been a huge consolidation in medicine, with conglomerates and corporate medicine now dominating. Individual doctors have lost their independence. Covid is a good example where doctors who followed their own professional views that were diferent from corporate medicine were punished. I value the opinions of doctors who still have their own independence. Corporate medicine? Not so much. Some highly regarded doctors broke with the Big Medicine narrative during Covid, including some from very prestigious insitutions like the Oxford University Center for Evidence Based Medicine. You can believe that political hack Fauci all you want, but I give greater weight to places like Oxford. One of the world's leading epidemiologists and viroligists, who is also a medical professor at Oxford, was one of the leaders in the Great Barrington Statement of medical professional who disagreed with Fauci's lockdowns.

The so-called "Patriot Front" has been outted as a false flag FBI front, Little Bobbie.

I imagine you would likely be dressed in black and participated in ANTIFA and BLM activities.

As usual, Bigot Bob, you unleash your rabid anti-white racism, which is part of your leftist cult. We conservatives believe with Martin Luther King that people should be judged by the content of their character, not the color of their skin.

How typical, Little Bobbie, that you progs are soft on crime. You don't want them to have to post bail or do active time either. It is attitudes like yours that are sending crime through the roof. People like you and your Soros prosecutors are a threat to law and order.

Those targets are EU imposed, and as long as Sweden is in the EU, they are subject to them. The previous Swedish government was all-in on this stuff. What they are really addressing is EU mandates, specifically the EU Green Deal, which Poland's prime minister denounced as "the expensive climate policy of the EU". If you are compelled by the EU to deal with it, nuclear is a much better way, as Poland itself is also doing. But Poland is using coal as long as it can. Poland's coal fired electricity was some of the cheapest in Europe, until the EU Green Deal came along. Now France's nuclear power is some of the cheapest. Wind and solar powered Germany? That is the most expensive electricity in not only Europe, but the world and has been since Merkel got seriously into the Energie Wende.

Well hello, Mr. Chicken Little Bobbie! The current Swedish government never said your Chicken Little words even if you try to put them into their mouth. You assume everyone worships your far left narrative but they do not.

Far from being "educated", the left just follows it own narrtive and they want to make education of our children to be indoctrination into that narrative.

I think George Orwell had it right when he wrote that "Some ideas are so stupid that only intellectuals believe them".

What Joe Biden did with Tara Reed is pretty bad, too, especially since she was his employee, but there seems to be a double standard for Democrats. Biden got a pass on a digital (as in finger) rape.

Oh, and the far left's smears on the SCOTUS are a huge load of hooey.

Frankenmeat, just what the globalists push for the masses, but it is doubtful any of them would eat this junk. They also want us to eat bugs and worms. It is high time to defeat the globalist menace.

ERIC is a creation of George Soros and used by far left groups to register Democrat voters. This Dr. Andy Jackson is one who promoted it last year.

Will you repudiate the violent and destructive groups on the far left like the Marxist ANTIFA, the Marxist BLM, and the eco-extremists like Just Stop Oil, Last Generation, etc?

I like the fact that those eco-extremists are getting more and more pushback. There was an incident in the UK recently, where they were blocking school children getting to class on time and the school children didn't want to be punished for being tardy so they used force to make their way through the eco-mob. I have also enjoyed some videos in the Uk and Germany of motorists picking up the eco-mob members and none too gently removing them from the road. There was a case in Germany where eco-mob members called the cops on motorists doing that and were told by the cops that under German law the motorists had a right of self defense to remove them from the road. The classic was a video from the UK where the eco-mob had glued itself to the pavement so they could not be removed easily. The video showed a motorist unzipping his fly and then a stream of what was obciously urine directed all over a protester who was glued to the pavement and could not get away from it.

The way the far left's totalitarian "hate speech" laws work is that people are fully free to hate the "disapproved" groups and individuals but not to say anything remotely negative about any of the "approved / protected" groups and individuals. They are designed to impose an ideological agenda by bully tactics.

To claim they are about the same, Little Bobbie, you must be using that wacky Common Core math.

I am not at all fond of groups like the Proud Boys, but their level of actual violence is much less than that of Antifa, and Antifa is engaged in violence around the world. A few weeks ago there was an Antifa unit, including an attorney for the far left Southern Poverty Law Center, arrested in Atlanta for domestic terrorism. A couple of months before that, Hungary arrested an Antifa unit that had come into the country to seemingly randomly attack people with extreme violence on the streets of Budapest. Last week in Switzerland, an Antifa gang busted up a restaurant to attack a meeting of young women opposed to illegal immigration, using clubs and knives, injuring 20 of them. Proud Boys are indeed a piece of work, but compared to Antifa, they are almost Boy Scouts.

One has to really be loony tunes to think you can build a railroad across an ocean.

Oh! That usual far left excuse for wildly inconsistent situations - "whataboutism". What a pathetic joke.

If you are too stupid to understand the issues involved, read Dershowitz, Turley, or that lesser known federal prosecutor I linked to.

If Biden and Hillary had their days in court for their classified documents, you might have a point, but they haven't and therefore you don't, Bobbie. Oh, and has the cat got your tongue on Biden's Indian Ocean railroad plan?

This is how far our country has fallen. The far left like Bobbie does not care that our justice system has been politicized, and that one side is now trying to arrest the other side. That is what happens in banana republics and third world dictatorships. The fake "special proecutor on the Biden classified documents seems to have totally disappeared. The one that looked at the Hillary Clinton classified documents did a snow job and swept it under the rug. This is a JUST-US system, not a justice system.
