Do Not Comply. Is it Just a Hashtag or Is It a Rallying Cry?
We are hearing from many different camps - Patriots1, Prophets and Intercessors2, Conservative Podcasters and Bloggers3, Alternate media4 and sometimes even the Leftstream Media5 - that everyone suspects (expects) a new round of lockdowns to occur soon. Some think it will be related to a new variant of Covid while others think it will be climate lockdowns. See our post “Here’s the News” for an analysis of the inherent bias in the various news sources.6
Covid lockdowns would not be nearly as effective as they were last time because all of the claims about masks, social distancing, distant learning, etc. promoted by the “experts” have been proven to be untrue. Climate lockdowns would be harder to sell because the existential threat is not immediate (therefore harder to convince people to accept major restrictions) but if they can pull it off, the vague nature of the positive impact of climate lockdowns make the lockdown more enforceable (once people comply, it is harder from them to evaluate the impact and reject the restrictions).
Whatever the excuse civil governments and the globalists make for more lockdowns, we are consistently hearing from all of the camps listed above (except the Leftstream Media) “Do Not Comply.” We have been through the Covid lockdowns, masking, social distancing, distant learning and “experimental substances” injection mandates. We have learned that social distancing made no difference, masks made no difference and the experimental injections made people sicker and more susceptible to Covid and other diseases. We saw local businesses shut down while the big corporations (Walmart, Home Depot, Costco and the other “big box” stores) flourished. The years of the lockdowns produced the largest wealth transfer from the middle class to billionaires in history.7
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.
There are reports that some Walgreens stores are putting social distancing decals back on the floors. Some colleges, hospitals and other organizations are reinstating mask mandates and extending vaccine mandates. Are we seeing the beginnings of the new lockdown plan?
Is #donotcomply simply a hashtag, a statement of opinion? Or is it actually a call to action? Are the people using this hashtag just being trendy or are they pledging their commitment to not comply? Is this just some “fringe” element promoting non-compliance? Or are normal everyday people, seeing the duplicity and hypocrisy of the “experts,” determined to not comply? All we need is a significant minority of the populace to not comply to maintain our freedom.
As stated earlier, the evidence has clearly shown that the masks, social distancing and lockdowns had no health benefit. In fact, there was a markedly negative health impact from the lockdowns. So it is not a matter of giving up some freedom in the interests of public health. Since there is no public health benefit to a general lockdown, it is very simply a matter of choosing liberty or oppression.
If they try a climate emergency lockdown our arguments may be different but resistance to tyranny looks the same regardless of the reason for the lockdown.
Do you believe the Patriots or the Prophets or the Podcasters or the Alternative Media? One or all of them? Because they are ALL sounding the alarm. Are you waiting for someone else to make the first move? Or is it all too much for you to believe and you are waiting to decide? If all the voices are correct, the moment of decision will be upon you before you know it. What will you do?
Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety. Benjamin Franklin
Necessity is the plea for every infringement of human freedom. It is the argument of tyrants; it is the creed of slaves. William Pitt (the Younger), Speech in the House of Commons, November 18, 1783
Never trade Liberty for Safety but definitely don’t give up Liberty for no increase of safety at all. #donotcomply
The Patriots. This category represents a broad spectrum of organizations and individuals ranging from non-profits like True the Vote, Frank Speech (Mike Lindell), the Federalist Society and the Alliance Defending Freedom; also the more controversial QAnon, a group of independent researchers who dig deep into public databases to evaluate the veracity of the leftstream news sources and official “experts,” decoding hints posted by “Q.” These include SGAnon, X22 Report, Juan O’Savin, Derek Johnson, Patriot Streetfighter, Praying Medic and many others.
All Christians need to pray for wisdom and direction to understand the times we live in (like the sons of Issachar in I Chronicles 12:32). Some, like the prophets of old, appear to be especially gifted with the ability to discern God’s purposes and so provide direction for the Body of Christ. Many of these are featured on Elijah Streams, a Rumble channel hosted by Steve Shultz. Others include Johnny Enlow, Julie Green, the late Kim Clement, Lance Walnau, Dutch Sheets and Tim Sheets to name only a few.
Podcasters, Bloggers. Websites and Podcasts include Clay Clark, Flyover Conservatives, Mel K and dailyclout.io (Naomi Wolf). Substacks include Matt Ehret’s Insights, Through a Glass Darkly (Cynthia Chung), Unreported Truths (Alex Berenson), Steve Kirsch’s Newsletter and Outspoken (Naomi Wolf). Still others can be found on Substack, Truth Social, Rumble, Locals and other platforms

Then of course the former Mainstream Media (now more accurately called the Leftstream media) that includes The New York Times, the Washington Post, The Economist, CNN, MSNBC and all the legacy media TV networks. I personally subscribe to the first three to get the left’s perspective and ignore all the rest.

CNN, CBS News, Reuters, the Guardian and The Daily Signal have all reported on this radical shift. RFK Jr. puts this wealth transfer at $3.8T, which included the creation of 500 new billionaires. See him describe the transfer in this clip starting at 1:07:
