There have already been kickbacks to this insanity. Liongate Studios backpedaled with a squishy apology. Kaiser Permanente (sic) waffled on their 'mandate' announcement.
Perhaps, just maybe, there is enough of a groundswell voice, regardless of political affiliation, that is pushing back against the overlords. There's hope.
You make good points. I think there is a lot more pushback than even we, who are here in this Substack's comments section, realize-- precisely because of the censorship and shadow-banning. It is exceedingly difficult to get news about some of the lawsuits, for example. Also, I have been looking for testimonies to transcribe every day for over 2 years now and I still, very belatedly, come upon what I consider to be historically important testimonies of protest from 2021. I found this one only a few days ago, for example:
"Very sad fire chief pours his heart out for all to hear"
KAIMI PELEKAI: Good afternoon. My name is Kaimi Pelekai. I'm a fire captain with the Honolulu Fire Department. I've been a fireman for 20 years. My father was a fireman for 37. So this career of service to our community is a part of who I am, and a part of who a lot of people who serve in our first responders, first responder jobs, are.
So when this mandate came out five days ago it created a lot of harm and hurt in our community. Our policemen, our firemen, our lifeguards, paramedics, EMTs, we didn't know what's going to happen to our jobs. Governor Ige's* mandate was interpreted by our mayor** to mean if you didn't put an experimental drug in your body that you don't have enough information about to make an informed decision, or you didn't get an approved religious or medical exemption in the next 10 days, it literally said, you could be fired.
I spent the last 20 years of my life and 37 years watching my dad do this job. And because I didn't want to put an experimental drug in my body, I got to give that all up? I got to choose between my personal freedom and, I'm not just talking about me but
people who are first responders like me, who love our job, who love the people of Honolulu so much we leave our families every day, willing to sacrifice our lives for them! That's how much we love this city and the people of the city. I leave my family every day knowing I may not come home, and I gladly do it with a smile on my face because that's who I am!
That's who every one of us is. Every firefighter, every policeman, every paramedic, every EMT, every lifeguard, we run in when everybody's running out, we jump in front of the bullets when they're being fired, we swim into the 40 foot waves! And I have to choose between that career that I've committed to or put an experimental drug that I don't know what it's going to do to me in my body, or I, or I got to give all that up?
I guess for some people it's an easy choice, but for some of us it's not, it's a hard choice.
There's a thousand first responders out there right now who are so lost, so confused because they think this is it! This is the end of their life, end of their livelihood.
Do you know how hard it is to get in the fire department? You know how many guys test for this job every year? And now you, now I got to pick between— anyway. That's what we're dealing with. That's what us first responders are dealing with.
And I know the people of Honolulu, I know, you know, it's not you guys' fault. You're not doing this to us. And, and you don't have to worry, we're going to show up every day. If they're going to fire us, they're going to fire us, and that's up to, up to them. We'll be there for you. We're going to be at work, don't worry. If we're not there it's because of them. It's because of the mayor, because of the governor.
We want to be there! We [inaudible] This is what we want to do with the rest of our lives. We want to run in, we want to stop the bullet, we want to swim into the 40 foot waves to save their lives! That's what we want. That's what we wanted to be. And if we're not there on the 16th you can call Mayor Blangiardi and thank him.

We are facing Lockdowns 2.0 and 3.0 and 4.0 and...Infinity.0
Unless we refuse to comply, and bring along more non-compliant to our side who are willing to suffer the force of the state's boot, either of police or a retailer's private security officer or denial of service for ordinary transactions. Or loss of employment. All of which are levers of authority in the wings to compel compliance. Are we still home of the brave, preserving the land of the free?
This piece written in 2019 when the author was implying that Trump represented the authoritarian regime looming over us:
Would You Stand Up to an Authoritarian Regime or Conform? Here's The Science
"Few will fight Gilead after carefully weighing up the consequences – after all, the most likely outcome is failure and obliteration. What drives forward fights against an oppressive society is a rival vision – a vision of equality, liberty and justice, and a sense that these should be defended, whatever the consequences."
This is where the future of humanity will be won or lost. And should be our biggest focus in our day-to-day lives and interactions. Are we sharing our rival vision of equality, liberty and justice? And the sense that these should be defended, whatever the consequences? If we aren't, then we will lose. The time to be passive and hope that people come our way is long past. We must reeducate, re-sell the vision of true equality, liberty and justice. Not the Orwellian twist on those words that have been repeated through media, academia and culture to mean their opposite.
The Brainwashed will fall for Plandemic 2. They will line up for Boosters, RSV and Flu jabs. They will mask up and comply. America will separate into A’s (Awakened) and B’s (Brainwashed).
In a certain sense Biden has no other choice for a State ol Emergency. Even his Climate Emergency would not be strong enough to stop exposure. Without excuse of Covid he will be impeached or step down. I suspect it is one of timing. October. Close to Halloween and symbolic. I see people masked frequently, mainly in stores, or the bus, many are Asian, enough are not, some in cars. A friend of 45 years and I had brunch and he walked four blocks with mask and I jibed him and said your vaccinated why mask and he explained his health.
I am so damned tired of this bulls**t psyop, no doubt let by our intelligence mafia with the cooperation of the DS, MSM, social media, etc. Tell them to pound sand and go to hell. Never, ever, forget what they are doing to humans, children, women to reduce population. #DoNotComply #Resist
People are so gullible, it's sad. I guess they have to roll out this charade again since the otherwise there won't be much demand for the vax. So we might have to prepare for every time those pharma stocks go down, there will be another panic campaign.
edit: this way they might be able to maintain some lock down era voting options aka mail in ballots too and Biden can stay in the basement again. Plus the student loan repayments start again in October (a reminder the Biden never cancelled those 10,000$) - maybe they could use it to again to pause the repayments.
edit2: also, there have been entire industries created around Covid. They are probably lobbying in the background as demand for products and services dropped.
Don’t know? Don’t care! Our large circle of friends and neighbors never locked down the first time. And we won’t this time. We actually had some of the best parties in lockdown 1.0 🤣 When life gives you lemons make lemonade!
My concern is what they will do to those of us who didn’t comply the last time and don’t plan to this time.. Now we know how easy it is for them to freeze bank accounts, or for the bank to drop a client, since the Canadian Trucker protests and also attorneys in the UK being canceled by their banks this year. Who do is can feed our families if they cut us off?
Due to a lack of options in my area, most of my grocery shopping is at Walmart. They’ve had those cameras and screens at the entrances as long as I can remember, but during the lockdowns, other people and I noticed green “boxes” around our images on screen as we walked through the doorways, while the attendant in the mask tracked who was coming in, and who was coming out, and with, or without, a mask on their face. Those “boxes” have since disappeared. It was terrifying the first time I saw a box around me but no one else in the lobby, and *every time I went in (always without a mask).
We know with Peter Theil’s Clearview AI, we’re all tracked nearly everywhere we go in civilization. The same guy who funded Facebook, Clearview AI, most big conservative political candidates, and war drones that can find you in your house, and shoot you--Peter Thiel is behind all that. He has an agenda.
I’ve read that Biden would need it declare another state of emergency in order to lockdown again. Is this true? If so, how could this variant warrant an emergency unless they are going to do all the same shit about inflating “case” numbers and identifying cancer patients as COVID deaths. Surely as a society we learnt something from all this?
I just cannot stop laughing at the covid variant parade. What babblecock. They actually pay fake researchers $100's of thousands to invent this stupidity. All in the name of creating fear and panic and the rush to go get your mRNA death injections by the handfuls. The lockdowners and masktards can go shove it.
Biden (actually, whoever is really running this country) will do it. I have little doubt. Has it come to "our lives, our liberty, our sacred honor"? In three years our Republic will celebrate 250 years of existence. A Republic, if we can keep it. Can we? The debanking is what scares me.

Well said.
No one tells free people what to do.
Be an adult and tell these clowns to go home.
Not happening, just not going to go through it yet again.
I do feel for those that are trapped into complying because of job status or whatever. I don't...
The Brainwashed will fall for Plandemic 2. They will line up for Boosters, RSV and Flu jabs. They will mask up and comply. America will separate into A’s (Awakened) and B’s (Brainwashed).
Said "NO" last time saying "NO" again!

lucky
I will not comply in any way.
No masks, no jabs, no distancing.
And I will not tolerate ANY KAREN BEHAVIOR!!!

Yes, I see the current scariant is not on the list yet. ....BS.24/7
