There are two things in particular that cannot be demanded or imposed on anyone: trust and respect. Trust and respect are something you have to earn. If it is demanded from the authorities by order or decree, as is the case in Norway today, respect and trust are a false edifice, or a castle in the air if you will.

A mentally ill person will always have a political opinion
Before I talk about the Norwegian Security Police (PST), I’ll say something completely obvious, yet necessary, about political opinions and being mentally ill. If you did a study of political opinions among, say, 100 compulsory hospitalised and convicted violent offenders in a closed psychiatric ward – what would you find out?
You would find, by asking them a series of questions about politics, that just about all of them would express opinions in the category of politics and that would spread across the whole spectrum. Some would have been placed on the left side of the meaningless political left-right axis and some on the right. Some would have sympathised with SV, others with FRP. Some would think that the Freemasons are something to watch out for, while others would think that the Labour Party’s closed political groups are something to watch out for. Some would cheer for Liverpool, others would cheer for Arsenal. If you interviewed the man who was shot by the police at Bislett in 2021 in a tragic incident, you would see that he had some kind of political opinions. If you interviewed the man who stabbed a person on a tram in 2004, you’d find the same thing.
But, it is not the political opinion, that they have sympathy for FRP or SV, or cheer for Arsenal, that is the reason for the serious incident; the reason is that they for some reason have unstable mental health where it all for some reason progresses to a serious incident!
If you don’t realise this, or deliberately ignore it, but instead choose a very specific political viewpoint, or even worse, a medical setting (which doesn’t really have anything to do with politics) to be defined as the actual cause, then you are making a serious attack on democracy.
The false democracy in Norway
In recent years, the power structures in Norway, or the “establishment”, have been attacking more and more openly what can be said to be real democratic elements of Norwegian society. Without going into an in-depth discussion of what democracy actually is, I will divide the concept into two parts;
- A – a true democracy: a society with an enlightened population, with real freedom of speech, open debate where almost everything can be debated in an honest manner, where all sides can be heard, and where criticism of power and monitoring of power is widespread throughout the population and even recognised by the power structures themselves as crucial to democracy.
- B – a false democracy: a society in which the so-called democratic institutions are completely devoid of any real democratic content, in which the truth is never really examined but is declared in consensus decisions, in which curiosity for other opinions or what is “different” has been eradicated from society, in which the flow of information is almost a monopoly, in which the population – and young people – are prevented from encountering alternative views at all (i.e. censorship), and in which both dissenting opinions from the consensus and criticism of power are psychologised and declared to be extremism. Suffice it to say that a false democracy is in place when the authorities bombard the population with cognitive warfare and manipulation projects on an ongoing basis.
In Norway, we have B, and only a tiny minority trying to achieve A or save the small remnants of A.
Then there’s the Norwegian Security Police (PST).
PST’s attack on democracy
PST is one of the establishment’s most important tools on behalf of the power structures in B to combat the potential to achieve A, and they have many tools. The word “conspiracy theory” is one of the most important tools. Another word for conspiracy theory is “power critique” or “power investigation”, and the most banal but incredibly effective method of preventing people from doing this is to turn everything on its head – that having a conspiracy theory in the power structures is redefined as something deadly to society! Talk about turning the world upside down!
And just think, they have succeeded, 9 out of 10 Norwegians are brainwashed into believing this nonsense today!
Decades of brainwashing works, and this method of cognitive warfare has actually been in use since the 1970s and 1980s, when it was introduced by the CIA and the US government to prevent anyone from scrutinising them and to slow down critical investigations into the Kennedy assassination.
So, to summarise: the method’s ONLY objective is to prevent people from scrutinising the power structure, NOTHING else!
Here, PST utilises the extremely democracy-destroying method:

It should be added that the entire establishment utilises this form of cognitive warfare; we have discussed an example with Nina Kristiansen in Forskning.no. Or what about this madness from Aftenposten, NRK, Forskning.no and Agenda Magasin and others delivered in January 2026?

Hilde Schønning Aspelin: “How do we understand people with completely crazy ideas? I think these people have much fear and struggle mentally. They cling to these ideas. It just gets extra bad when they have children they pass these thoughts and fears on to. Children get confused. I’m thinking maybe someone ought to intervene, but how?”
This is just so diabolical that you are almost paralysed.
So, the PST’s next method of thwarting an alert and democratically minded population is the word “anti-state”. The aim of this form of cognitive warfare is twofold: to dismantle the very idea of being critical of the state, and to get the brainwashed part of the population to report such state critics to the authorities. In this crude manipulation, being critical of the state is inherently dangerous and even immoral.
As I began this article with – it has been decided by almost decree that you should have confidence in the state, you should have respect for the state and you should simply LIKE the state. If not, the security police will come.
Here, PST and NRK use these methods about the shooting at Jæren:

-From the national news channel: “PST warns against anti-state activities in Norway PST is concerned that all-consuming conspiracy-theories will increasingly lead to radicalization. Now they link the mindset to the shooting in Klepp during the christmas-holidays of 2024.”
Here, it is unashamedly assumed that this person’s negative view of the state (anti-state) is the actual cause of the incident, not that he was mentally ill, probably for completely different reasons, or that things had “clicked for him”. The behaviour of PST is completely insane if we are to continue to live under the illusion that we have, and should have, a democracy in Norway. It’s like every time there’s a stabbing in Oslo, there’s a red, a blue and a silver car in the vicinity of the stabbings – and PST selects one of the types/colours (analogy to political standpoint) and says in the press “the tragic events can be linked to blue cars”.
But PST has actually gone even further. For several years now, they have defined what the population should think about medical issues:

Just look at the picture: the director of both PST and the head of the Norwegian military intelligence service are standing on the podium, whereupon you are told that they are watching you who are critical of a very harmful and highly experimental medical product.
This is such a blatant attack on democracy that it leaves you speechless.
But if you realise the reality, you know that the basic fascist elements in which Big Tech, Big Pharma, Big Money and others have merged with the government apparatus (corporatism), making the authorities and the health service, for example, pure sales agents for the pharmaceutical industry and its vaccines, are fully implemented today in Norway and the rest of the West. And PST is the slightly brainwashed extended arm and tool of the same government apparatus. So it’s all very logical and not even complicated; as I mentioned in the introduction, the entire establishment and PST must defend the power of alternative B – the false democracy, and by all means prevent alternative A – a real democracy.
Alternative A is a violent threat to the existing power holders and the establishment.
We know from people we have dialogue with who are in government institutions and ministries such as health, police, defence and education that there is open talk internally in lectures and powerpoints about “the threat of people not having confidence”. There is not a single conscious reflection anywhere about the fact that there may be good reasons why people lose trust in the establishment, and that this is actually a sign of health, AND that you actually have to earn trust, not just declare that everyone must have it.
Authorities and power structures must be kept on their toes, otherwise they will always develop into abusers and even in many cases outright evil, as I mentioned in the previous article about how the Swedish security police (SÄPO) began to monitor an old lady who revealed how absurd the tax system in Sweden was/is. So we see what the security police in the “democratic” Scandinavian countries get up to, both in Norway and Sweden.
As I said, there’s really nothing strange about it:
Healthy people, a healthy society and a healthy government, who were committed to having a genuine and well-functioning democracy would naturally not only want an alert population and dare to let themselves be looked at in the cards, but one would even demand it and want it! But for a corrupt power system that is desperate to retain power and control, this is a mortal danger!
We at Lov og Helse know that we are defined as an extremist organisation that is a danger to democracy. We are probably on a number of powerpoints at PST and the Norwegian Intelligence Service and others. And there is a kernel of truth in this – we are actually a danger, or at least a nuisance, for the false democracy. But on the other hand, we are a tenacious champion of true democracy as described above.
