Given that lockdowns do not work and that in March 2020 that was even the official position of the WHO, it was always good to be against them. Sweden correctly stayed the course that had been decided on in calmer times and now has dramatically lower per-capita COVID mortality than the European average.
It is really depressing that even 18 months in, and even with instant access to the case curves of every country, significant numbers of people still believe that these tactics worked. You can just look at the development of cases over time and compare countries to each other to see that they've had no effect at all.
