      Yeah, conservatives sometimes do that. The “classic liberals” they’re referring to are liberals by 1700s (if not 1600s) standards.

      So basically progressive enough to be against flogging their slaves in front of guests or punishing loitering with deportation to Australia.

    I’m very much not a conservative, nor am I too involved in politics, but I swear at the beginning what he was saying kinda made sense? I stopped “following” him a bit after that but from what I remember he wasn’t that bad at first. I hope at least, I was younger so I may remember only partially.

      Yeah, but benzos. And it he didn’t have to do it - in fact, no Western doctors would do it. He had to go to Russia to get doctors reckless enough to put him into a medically unnecessary coma.

      Is this the guy that had to be put into a coma to overcome alcoholism?

      No, this is the guy that had himself put into a coma to overcome an addiction.
