Hannah Cox at FEE (Foundation for Economic Education) has an encouraging story on how Americans can resist and choose not to comply with police-state directives:
4 Ways Americans Are Fighting Back Against Anti-Science COVID Restrictions
What’s more American than apple pie? Civil disobedience.
In the US, it would be easy to
believe the vast majority of people are in lockstep with the government’s
pandemic policies. Networks are aflush with headlines claiming their
polls show a majority of Americans support policies like masks and vaccine
mandates, and detractors are painted as fringe.
Every good politico knows that,
with the right framing, you can get a poll to say anything you want it to. But
aside from the unreliable nature of the polls and headlines dominating our
airwaves, there is another problem with the media’s reporting: they never seem
to elevate stories that tell a counter narrative.
One doesn’t have to look far to
find examples of Americans who have simply had enough of the anti-scientific
and unconstitutional COVID mandates. We know, and have known for over a year,
that the majority of masks in use provide little
benefit in warding off the coronavirus. Additionally, studies have shown that
mask mandates failed to reduce COVID
deaths, hospitalizations, or even cases. And on top of all of that, we
consistently see the same leaders who push these unscientific mandates on the
rest of us flout the rules whenever it suits their fancy—like Alexandria
Ocasio-Cortez at the Met Gala or San Francisco Mayor London Breed partying at
a local jazz club.
Vaccine mandates present similar
problems. Besides being flagrantly unconstitutional and a violation of bodily
autonomy, these mandates ignore the
natural immunity that millions of people have built up.
The rules only get sillier and more
nonsensical from there. . . .
