Lockdown Restrictions Are A Test To See How Much Tyranny Americans Will Accept

Lockdown Restrictions Are A Test To See How Much Tyranny
Americans Will Accept 1

The pandemic lockdowns are a complicated issue, and that is
absolutely deliberate. The point of 4th Generation psychological
warfare is to present the target individual or population with a
hard choice – a no-win scenario. You are damned if you do and
damned if you don’t. I often equate this to the key moves in a
difficult chess game; your primary goal is to create a dual threat
and force your opponent to sacrifice one piece over another in
order to escape with the least amount of damage. Do this a few
times and you have won the long game.

There are multiple aspects to the global pandemic which seem
engineered to push our society to make “sacrificial decisions”.
We can choose to sacrifice the lives of those that are susceptible
to the virus, sacrifice our economy, or sacrifice many of our
freedoms with the promise that the economy and lives will be
protected. The easiest choice is always to give away a little more
freedom. We’ll get it all back eventually…right?

Of course, we don’t actually get to “choose” anything when
we play along with this game. 4th Gen warfare is meant to
eventually take IT ALL from the target population while making
people think it was their choice to give those things away.

To be clear, it’s not only the pandemic being exploited as
leverage to conjure these situations. The leftist riots are another
example of a
bought and paid for crisis
that is being used in an attempt to
convince half of Americans that breaking constitutional principles
and instituting unprecedented government power is somehow an
acceptable sacrifice. The riots and the virus response work
hand-in-hand; one is created to get leftists to demand
totalitarianism in the name of public safety, the other is created
to get conservatives to demand totalitarianism in the name of
public safety.

The solution always ends up being totalitarian government. There
are those that would have you believe that this is the only way.

Silly libertarians live in a fantasy world where
freedom is valued over security in times of crisis. We don’t have
the luxury of freedom when communist terrorists/deadly virus
threaten to destroy the fabric of our society…”

Sound familiar? Yes, this nonsense narrative is everywhere on
forums and message boards these days, almost as if someone was
paying people to inject it into everyday discussion. The problem
is, I’ve seen this all before. Right after the events of 9/11,
America went insane for at least a few years, hyperfocused on the
threat of terrorists while ignoring the greater root danger of all
powerful government. The number of constitutional protections being
violated in the name of “beating the terrorists” was
staggering, and the number of mostly conservative citizens cheering
for this at the time was immense.

Today’s calls for overreaching government power in the name of
“beating coronavirus” or “beating the extreme left” are no
different. In the wake of widespread fear, people suffer from fits
of temporary madness that allows them rationalize moral relativism
and unnecessary sacrifices.

I’ve never really understood that aspect of behavior among
certain groups. I’ve never been so fearful of losing my life that
I was willing to hand over anything including my freedom and my
future on the mere chance that I could stay alive just a little
longer. But for some, that fear dominates their every waking
moment.

To me, this would be a torturous and empty existence. What do
these people have to live for anyway? Obviously they don’t care
about their children because they are willing to give away their
children’s future just so they can feel safer today. Do they have
some kind of epic contribution for the good of humanity and they
feel they must do anything to survive long enough to make it
happen? Are they working on the cure for cancer or a path to world
peace? I doubt it.

More likely they work in an office building or a McDonald’s or
teach kindergarten at a public school. They aren’t contributing
all that much, but they are perfectly willing to trade their
freedom and everyone’s freedom for a little more time on this
Earth. I’ve seen 85-year-old men that can’t move around without
a walker raging about people who “don’t wear masks” and how
they should be “thrown in jail”.

Buddy, you have lived your life fully. You had your fun. Yet,
you are still clinging so desperately to existence that you are
demanding the draconian destruction of our society’s core
principles just so you can eek out a couple more years of grumbling
in misery and eating soft foods?

I’m not saying I contribute much more in comparison, but I
also have no interest in controlling the destinies of other people.
I’m just trying to live my life as free as possible while helping
to ensure others can do the same. And if I die from a virus, then I
die, but at least I never aided in the enslavement of future
generations. There are plenty of Americans of all ages that feel
the same way as I do; but there are many others that seem to be
missing that ability to control their fear.

The question I almost never see asked in the mainstream when it
comes to the pandemic is this – Is it really all worth it?

Is it worth it to shut down large swaths of the US economy,
threatening millions of jobs, sending millions of people into
poverty, risking speedy financial collapse and degrading our
fundamental freedoms just to save .03% of the population? What if
it was 1% of the population? Would it be worth it then? What about
3%?

The reality is, it’s NEVER worth it.

Recently a voting member of the Federal Reserve, Neel Kashkari,
argued that the
US needs renewed hard lockdowns
, meaning most Americans stay
stuck at home for at least 6 weeks with little access to the
economy. His rationale? The US savings rate has spiked, therefore
more Americans are saving, therefore they can financially handle
another lockdown.

Now, either Kashkari is very stupid or very evil. I’m going to
go with evil. This is just more proof that supports my position
that the Fed is a suicide bomber seeking the deliberate destruction
of the US in the name of an ideological cult (globalism).

First, the savings rate does not necessarily represent the
majority of Americans. The savings rate can increase dramatically
due to a small subsection of the population, such as the upper
middle class or the 1%, setting large amounts of money aside, yet
the statistics treat this as if it represents the whole population.
The Personal Savings Rate also includes stocks and bonds as
“savingsâ€, which helps to skew the numbers as well.

Secondly, with 30 million more Americans added to the
unemployment rolls after the last lockdown, how can we take the
recent increase in the savings rate seriously? How many average
middle class or poverty stricken Americans are included in that
stat?

Thirdly, even if the Fed stat was accurate and most Americans
were saving more, how is this an excuse to enforce even harsher
lockdowns? People generally save in order to prepare for the worst
case scenario. So, because they are saving for the worst case
scenario, Kashkari wants to punish them with the worst case
scenario, thereby wiping out their savings? Again, he’s either
stupid or evil; take your pick.

All no-win scenarios are constructed on lies and false
narratives. They require you to believe certain fallacies before
you can feel trapped by the decision that is imposed on you.

Kashkari will claim that his strategy will be better for the
country in the long run, but he knows full well that the economy
was crashing well before the coronavirus arrived on the scene. In
fact, the Federal Reserve built the framework for the crash by
addicting the system to easy debt through stimulus measures and low
interest rates, then they took away the punch bowl triggering a
bubble implosion, and now they are the world with punch until
everyone drowns in the inflation.

The US economy was broken even without the pandemic lockdowns so
there is no point in giving up your freedom or economic access to
save the system.

Another lie is that we can somehow avoid or escape the virus.
Eventually, almost everyone is going to get it, it’s just a
matter of time. Hope that a working vaccine can be developed in
less than a year is deluded, and given the terrible results of

previous attempts by governments to rush vaccines
into
production, I think I would rather take my chances with Covid. Even
medical tyrant
Dr. Fauci himself admits
that a vaccine will not be fully
effective and that the virus may be around for many years to
come.

So, why are we beating around the bush? Why are we shutting down
the economy? Why are we giving up our everyday freedoms? Who are we
saving? No one. The people that are going to die from coronavirus
are going to die from it sooner or later. If we are going to get
into a discussion on the so-called “greater goodâ€, then let’s
really be logical about it.  The decision is not all that hard when
you set aside the propaganda and think about it.

Dragging the pandemic out over years with lockdowns hurts the
majority of people. It expedites an economic crash that was already
in motion and it will lead to massive poverty levels in the US as
well as a supply chain breakdown. It may even lead to full-on
collapse.

To be clear, I respect the private property rights of businesses
that want customers to wear masks or take other precautions in
their establishments.  I have the right to not shop at those
businesses if I don’t like it.  The problems arise when
government officials try to FORCE businesses to institute pandemic
restrictions or to close down completely.  An even bigger problem
arises when governments try to force pandemic restrictions onto
individuals in their everyday lives.  This is simply
unacceptable.

Government edicts forcing people to social distance or wear
masks or deny them the right to free assembly, once instituted,
will probably never go away. Once government has the power to
dictate your movements and behavior as if your moment-by-moment
decisions are a threat to “public healthâ€, they have total
power to do anything they wish.

Many of these orders are also being made at the executive level.
No state governor, no mayor, no president has the right to
unilaterally create laws and assert unchecked authority. It is the
job of legislatures to pass laws that affect the common public, and
often these laws must be voted on by the citizenry through ballot
initiatives. The governor has no more power to force me to wear a
mask than some lunatic leftist Karen on the street.

It’s not that I don’t care about the people who are
susceptible to the virus, it’s just that I’m not willing to
play a rigged game of sacrifice for those people. No, they aren’t
worth it, and I include myself in that statement in the event that
I am susceptible to the virus. Why should over 99% of people be
treated like prisoners so less than 1% of the population can feel
safer?  If you are really at risk then STAY HOME, shop online and
let the rest of us get on with our lives.

I would never ask the majority of people to sacrifice their
liberties for my personal comfort. Anyone who does is a coward.
