Maybe it is because you don't want to see it?

Police seems to have different approach to these things in 2021 than they had in 2020 Looks like some people didn't read their master's tweets From "kneeling during national anthem being insult towards USA's flag and military" to Guesses will this fine impartial real news journalist from the Blaze get visit from FBI any time soon, considering that he tweets having access to information that is classified.

Sorry but I need to correct you, I am just speaking alternate patriotic truth by stating that true patriotic Capitol troops support true and only leader of America, God Emperor Trump

Last four years they have done their best that there are only Trump supporters working in all governmental organizations , so security probably is part of those who are storming in the Capitol

Democrats winning both seats seems most likely out come. They have become quite good with their strategic vote dumps

At least Trump knew it already year ago.

Sometimes I wonder is it actually possible that people don't actually understand that these things are bidirectional which is why there was agreements in first place

Maybe this new 'study' will help people get over their fears

I don't think there is any general feeling towards it, it is seen as swedes doing swede things. Although majority of people think we should fully close borders for swedes and swedes tourist feel like they aren't welcome in Finland and make effectively this old meme as reality

They also didn't take account some important factors, like that keeping things open does not prevent big hit on economy when their main trade partners go in lock down and then close borders to them because their corona strategy don't work with strategies their trade partners chose. Also their strategy had big risk that those with least in risk would spread infection to vulnerable populations and that risk ended up to actualize, which is main reason that Sweden has so much higher death toll compared to its neighbors. Considering that first vaccine against corona was already working in lab in January, the rapid development and approval should not been surprising factor for experts creating the strategy.

Natural immunity and immunity from vaccination is not usually same. Also level of immunity isn't necessary same. Immunity against SARS-CoV-2 last at least 8 months, but for some individuals antibodies created during infection disappear in weeks and they are able to get infection again. SARS-CoV-2 is also slowly evolving virus and at least for now all new strains use same spike protein, which means that same vaccinate work against them at least with good efficiency SARS-CoV-2 also don't seem to spread fast enough in population that there would ever be natural immunity against it, as prediction scenarios estimate that it will take close to 50 years that 70 % of current world population has had infection, during which there will already be new generations of population that also needs to be infected. So without vaccinations it seems that SARS-CoV-2 would become another seasonal flu and as it deadlier than most flu trains it would most likely significantly increase yearly fatalities from the 'flu' So in order to prevent SARS-CoV-2 and its future mutations become permanent fixture in our global disease we would need to do our best now to eradicate it from the earth through vaccinations. Full eradication at this point will probably decades of vaccinating children against it in order to keep 'herd immunity' level high enough long enough to ensure that it can't cause new epidemics or at least prevent new pandemic from it.

Yeah they changed definition because they were often asked what they think about exposing people to virus in order to build herd immunity. Which lead them trying to make sure that their definition did not leave any room for idea to build 'herd immunity' against disease doesn't include exposing people to the disease, because scientific support for it is questionable and it is seen ethically wrong. But change in definition doesn't mean that WHO thinks that immunity that people (may) get by having infection doesn't build population's 'herd immunity' against disease. I think one big reason why WHO decided to change their definition is how media often uses 'herd immunity' concept as alternative for vaccination, but I think their efforts in that front will be quite vain. https://www.who.int/news-room/q-a-detail/herd-immunity-lockdowns-and-covid-19#:~:text='Herd immunity'%2C,exposing them to it. https://www.who.int/emergencies/diseases/novel-coronavirus-2019/media-resources/science-in-5/episode-1

Trump assets were controlled by his sons

People don't even elect people to cabinet positions. At least not usually. People elect group of people to represent themselves and then those people negotiate with each which parties will form government/cabinet and then those parties decided who will which cabinet positions. And those who get cabinet positions will also represent their countries in international bodies which include Council of European Union. Cabinet also names their representative to Commission of EU. So saying it is not democratic is changing meaning of democratic representation as it has been for centuries

At least this was not The Witcher 1 release level buggy, where game crashed every time when prologue ended and I had to edit save file in order to skip part that caused the crash.

Commissioners for individual states are selected by governments of those states and Council if formed by members of governments of member states. President of Commission is selected by consensus of Council and confirmed by Parliament So Council and Commission are democratically elected (as long as all the member states select their governments democratically), but current way don't give people option to elect Council members or commissioners that goes against their government's wishes But if people of member states want to directly pick their representatives then they could either change their states ad direct democracies or just change their laws so that state has to organize elections where people can directly elect their cabinet members and commissioner candidate (and of course new election if Parliament rejects proposed commission). Selecting Presidency of Council or President of Council is not democratic anyway as position goes to every member one after the other every six months. But otherwise governing institutions are result of direct or indirect democratic selection. Most anti-democratic thing of EU is that most of its citizens don't care enough who represents them in EU so that they would take that account in their state elections and also Parliament elections usually have low turnout, so there is usually quite little accountability for decision makers based how they have done their job and everything mostly depends on state politics.

Yeah that is why it is against Rule of Law mechanism, which puts sanctions to countries that follow principals in article 2 of the treaty of the European Union But I know that other EU member states are conspiring against Poland and Hungary with their unfounded beliefs that democracy and human rights are something that EU member states should respect, just like how president Trump was cheated from having second term by tyrannical opposition that conspired with media to take power from poor and defenseless government.

Only because I allows it. Normally there needs be at least four countries with enough population to block resolution. But in case of corona relief they already moved so grey interpretation of EU's rules that they decides that vote needs be unanimous. It is reason why Hungary and Poland weren't able to prevent new directive that will demand that member states follow same values as they had to follow in order to become a member state. So called Rule of Law mechanism (I find it funny that Hungary's and Poland's current governments opposite mechanism with such name )

Yeah I know, like giving Poland, taxes I paid even though Poland is breaking Treaty of European Union even though rules say that EU should give money to countries that break the Treaty

We can just close borders from them, as there is clearly no need to follow EU's agreements

Again we will see Trump leading and then massive cheating dumps will turn the vote for Biden

You seem to mix things. But that is usually what whataboutism is based on
