      Cant speak to freedoms, but I’ve never witnessed a more intense social pressure to confirm to social norms than I did there

        Except when there was corona hysteria, anyways. Even at the peak, I saw only a handful of people wearing masks.

          It was not hysteria. Lots of people died. And, yes, Scandinavians wore masks a lot.

            Where did you get that from? We definitely didn’t, it was quite uncommon to see people with masks, the majority didn’t use them ever. Why are you, an American, gaslighting me how it happened in my own country?

                Du verkar vara helt besatta av politik från där borta, men okej, visst. Kanske danskar gick överstyr med munkorgen, men det gjorde inte vi svenskar.

                  Google says this one says:

                  You seem to be totally obsessed with politics from over there, but okay, sure. Maybe the Danes went overboard with the muzzle, but we Swedes didn’t.
