He/she thinks you're a sheep who hasn't changed anything because you're scared to. The fucked up thing about it is when someone allows someone more hopeless and cynical about life than themselves to convince them of what is best for them.

Sweden didn't do any worse on protecting it's elderly than any other country that had locked everything down. Nobody in Sweden should've conceded anything to anybody else, or apologized to anybody for anything. True failure is being afraid to try because people gave you death threats or adversity.
Sweden has no good reason to say they failed on anything or anyone to anybody, since you don't hear countries that locked everything and everyone down with many more excess deaths than Sweden saying they also failed their populations or their elderly. Bullshit, the elderly are more at risk every day already of death. While it's as possible to die young as it is to die of old age, it's also true that every year you live is a year closer to death, and nobody lives forever. It has a lot to do with why so many elderly folks got sick from the virus in the first place.

Though Sweden hasn't locked down a year into the pandemic, death rates are still lower than countries that did lock down. It wouldn't be a good idea to change now. Resisting lockdowns is resisting them even when there is opposition within your own country. If you don't remain standing, you will fall for anything.
Sweden shouldn't take a knee or a bow to pressure from other countries or from opposition within their own because they are neutral. They've been standing against lockdowns for a year now, that's too much effort and work to turn into bullshit and throw away by doing what everybody else is doing based on a little pressure from the opposition that wants you to.

A country that hasn't locked anything down yet, and still has a lower death rate that some countries that have, even after a year.
What's the point in Sweden locking down now, a year into the pandemic, when their death rate has been consistently lower than some countries that have locked down? No wonder the Swedes are neutral, even if they didn't fuck up at something, they're still going to make their policy what everyone else's policy is because they are outnumbered, rather than show people from other countries that not all countries have to do things the same way, since that would require conflict.

When you hear someone talking about what degree of privacy they are willing to give up, they really mean what degree of personal freedom are people willing to give up. There are people who call other people selfish or narcissistic just to try and get them to give up more of their personal freedom.
