I get that and agree, but the businesses are already shut down. How much would all that really hurt? You still wouldn’t be able to open? The main objective would be to organize it where enough businesses do it at the same time. Then if all of that gets done to thousands of businesses at the same time it gets attention. We need a headline that businesses are re-opening. More would follow.
It sounds redundant, but they do have very huge influence. That is the reason why they should be first targeted. Its not a factor of people willing to do it, its the fact that these Big Tech companies have nearly 50%-80% influence on most companies that are not locally owned, and out of those owned are not large enough or influential enough to effect the changes at the local level.
Not saying it as an excuse, but that is the reality for most. The ones in Red States though should have much better time at this than blue. Illinois, for example, had the Governor and state Congress pass legislation that makes it so every business in the state has to pay/fined $2,500 for EACH person that enters EVERY TIME. In other words if a person decides to take their mask off meaning that if 300 people do that every week for just 1 month that is over $3 Million. That bankrupts even the Big businesses, but it is specifically designed to target small-medium size businesses. That is the case for Illinois, and it is a weak case in my view but I am not holding against the owners though even if they don't believe in the Covid-19 farce that situation alone will make them do that.
Exactly. Mass civil disobedience. Local governments do not have the resources to prosecute everyone. If they tried, the optics would be so bad that they would all be sent packing in the next election.
Who cares if your license get suspended, you get fines, etc. What's the alternative for most of these businesses? To lose their customers and income and hope they have enough in savings to make it until whenever we open up again, even then only to have a fraction of the customers come back?
And if businesses just allow this tyrannical overreach without any push-back, how can any business owner be sure this kind of nonsense shutdown will not happen again next year, or the year after that? How can any business owner operate when the local petty tyrant could shut them down on a whim and all everyone does is cry about what might happen if they don't bow before the tyrants? Who would sink their life savings and hard work into a business that could be taken at any time because of a bad flu season?
It really depends on the state you’re in. I think Midwest states are going to lead this, and have already begun. It will force the coastal states to open up by seeing states open and no mass death as well as seeing a mass exodus.
Where I live, there is a massive exodus from liberal states. And I’m actually seeing them all be conservative which is good. As the Midwest states open up, it will set the tone and pave the path.
I live in a state that rolled back the opening of businesses, a lot of restaurant owners just said fuck you and are open for business inside and out. Nothing happened to them and people are flocking there. It’s packed. Bars too
I’d say most never stopped outside of the cities and those that did just ignore it now. These “emergency powers by governors and mayors need to be stripped. State legislatures, city councils and court systems need to fight back. I haven’t seen one case of someone’s liberties being upheld in court For defying these “orders and laws”. If you have one please post it.
They only have the power we allow them to have. We have allowed it, because we're all scared of getting a bad cold. We still are. You still get looks of abject terror if you show up somewhere without a face diaper
Every lockdown in the world is to get rid of trump. We're the only country that has a trump so the lock downs are only worshipped like a religion here.
I never cared about the picture. The post wasn’t about the picture- it was about wanting AMERICA to do this. We have enough people on TDW to organize a real movement. THIS would be a great peaceful protest. Set a date, everybody get organized and get your friends in on it, and then follow through. That was the point of the post.
These are pro-democracy protesters in Belarus. Please stop spreading fake news - that's for Biden supports to do, not us.
For what it's worth, the UK has already managed to successfully re-open pretty much everything, including pubs. Largely because people have been listening to the scientists and following distancing rules.
How does that work in your mind? Its like they earned immunity or covid saw them being good so it got bored and moved on? Thats not how it works. If covid is still a thing, any relaxing of the rules would immediately lead to new outbreaks and a resurgence of cases. People seem to want to attach all sorts of moral motivations to this virus like it only strikes the wrong and wicked or some shit. If being at the pub 4 months ago was really dangerous, then its still dangerous today. Or maybe it was never dangerous.
Because it's not the pub that causes covid, but the number of other people in the pub with covid. By staying at home for months, we went from lots of people having it to not many people having it. Think of it this way - if one in a thousand chicken wings gave you explosive diarrhoea, it's probably a risk worth taking, but if it were one in five, you'd probably give it a miss.
Once you've got the cases down to a reasonable level, there's a balance to be struck. You can re-open stuff and still keep cases down if you take other precautions like partitions between tables.There's still a risk, but it's a very small one because not many people have covid to spread. There's no reason why most of the US can't re-open businesses right now if people take precautions.
Think of it as putting the needs of the country before yourself. It's no coincidence that the only places that have had outbreaks since we eased restrictions are shitholes infested with muslims who've ignored the advice and only care about themselves.
I never cared about where the picture was. It’s not about the picture- it’s about us starting a movement in America! That is why we need organization. We need to set a date, everybody and their friends get in on it, and then follow through on it. Power in numbers!🇺🇸
I never cared about where the picture was. It’s not about the picture- it’s about us starting a movement in America! That is why we need organization. We need to set a date, everybody and their friends get in on it, and then follow through on it. Power in numbers!🇺🇸
The point of the post wasn’t Britain, it was about US. I want to see Americans set a date and collectively open everything back up in large enough numbers that nothing can be done to stop us. THAT’s our peaceful protest and the way to end all of this. Open up your business! What are they going to do- shit your business down? Fine you and hurt your business?? Being shut down for a fake pandemic is worse than that.
It was never about the picture. I don’t care if it was a movie set. I’m calling for AMERICA to do this! That is why we need organization. We need to set a date, everybody and their friends get in on it, and then follow through on it. Power in numbers!🇺🇸
I’m glad to hear he’s well and that you had a chance to open the Bible today😊❤️ I just started Ecclesiastes. I always love Solomon’s wisdoms. It puts things in good perspective, although he’s much more cynical in Ecclesiastes than he is in Proverbs. And, on that same note, your dad being okay puts things in good perspective, too. I’m glad you got good news during crazy times. Have a blessed rest of your day!
LOL pepes tried that in MN low and behold got threatened to have their business license revoked unless they comply. Only way this works is an actual rebellion against the state government to remove the Leadership.
Life liberty and pursuit of happiness. Those are inalienable rights. It’s a violation of the god given rights of the people to require the government’s approval before starting a business. It’s basic as hell and somehow people roll with it.
Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness... as long as you have all the approved licenses and paperwork, and our annual permission in writing. Now pay me taxes, peasants.
Oh, no! License revoked?? Who cares?-They already aren’t allowed to be open for business! That’s exactly why the fight is worth it. That is why we need organization. We need to set a date, everybody and their friends get in on it, and then follow through on it. Power in numbers!🇺🇸
We have TDW. I’ve been calling for organization for months on here. We have plenty people in every corner of society on here to start a real movement. We just have to organize.
They needed to break into the government buildings and physically remove the officials that are destroying their lives. Get those crooks out is the only way. There is no way they could be arrested or stopped. That was their chance.
I’m thinking about putting up a webpage for this with a countdown, if everybody opens will they really fine everybody? What date do you all think would be appropriate to open up? Businesses need time to get ready, can’t just be Labor Day imo
I was thinking the exact same thing. It would have to be a day people remember with enough time to organize and get everybody TDW and their friends elsewhere in on it.
Looking forward, we need to examine the laws that give these local authorities the power to close down businesses. We need to elect officials willing to work to repeal/amend these laws. I think that is the long win.
I think we need to start encouraging and celebrating daily acts of disobedience. Go walking with your mask off, invite your neighbor over for some BBQ, play soccer with your buds. I think there are ways we can start to break the conditioning without Making ourselves an Easy target.
No one is an easy target if we can get enough people to join- but we need planning! We’d have to have a date set for everyone to go back to life as usual. Power in numbers. They can’t punish everyone.
I went into a home-goods yesterday. A young lady followed me and my wife in. She wasn't wearing a mask. The employee at the door said "Good morning ma'am, do you have your mask with you today?"
"No"
"Can I offer you one?"
"No you may not"
The employee walked off to talk to the manager at the registers. He shrugged and walked off to his office and they couldn't do anything about it. She walked around the store shopping for 30 minutes and left.
This is exactly what my family does. I have shopped at plenty of places with "mask required" signs and no one says a thing. Have never worn a mask since this started and both the state and county mandated it.
I have walked by plenty of cops and masked people and have never been yelled at or given dirty looks. No one wants to confront someone who walks around with a smile and good energy.
I've only been asked about a mask once and just said "No thanks" and kept on shopping. No big deal.
Our local news just released an article about the amount of complaints to the county health department and they straight up stated they are not allowed to pull any business licenses. The best they can do is "educate" them.
The whole scam really just relies on people blindly complying.
And, hell- if these masks are so fool-proof, other people can wear them and be protected if we decide not to. And if people are mad at is for not wearing masks, they can stay away from us. I want the mask Nazis to stay away from me anyway.
I mean there are indeed anti-lockdown protest in London. Just weekend past there. This is Belarus which is going through its own shitshow atm of which I know nothing about.
I know this might not be your picture looks like something from Facebook. Just watch out about news like this. They love using photos like this to do a bit of Fake News across the water.
I know, but the point wasn’t this picture- it was a post about America! I don’t care what Britain is doing. I want US to do this! We can do it. We just need to set a date and organize to all open at the same time (or enough of us to have protection in numbers).
And then your licenses get suspended, your utilities get shut off, and you get cited and prosecuted.
The answer is to overwhelm your local officials with complaints, protests, and political opposition.
They local petty tyrant is the biggest threat to liberty.
I get that and agree, but the businesses are already shut down. How much would all that really hurt? You still wouldn’t be able to open? The main objective would be to organize it where enough businesses do it at the same time. Then if all of that gets done to thousands of businesses at the same time it gets attention.

Big Tech.

EDIT: Typo
I was addressing what BarryInKenya was commenting in their first sentence.
That is why we need organization. We need to set a date, everybody and their friends get in on it, and then follow through on it. Power in numbers!🇺🇸
Getting fines on top of having no income would be devastating. The answer is class action lawsuits against state and local government.
And that’s how they win. Everyone is afraid. I never shut my business down, I still don’t wear masks, and I’m booming.
Tyrannical government employees only have the power we allow them to have. You treat them just like you do bullies. Fight back and don’t cower.
Call it a peaceful protest.
Exactly. Mass civil disobedience. Local governments do not have the resources to prosecute everyone. If they tried, the optics would be so bad that they would all be sent packing in the next election.

You know we've been cucked beyond repair when this kind of comment gets downvoted.
it's one downvote lol. idk why people here pay so much attention to one downvote
Alright Ben I apologise for bringing attention to the matter.
And if businesses just allow this tyrannical overreach without any push-back, how can any business owner be sure this kind of nonsense shutdown will not happen again next year, or the year after that? How can any business owner operate when the local petty tyrant could shut them down on a whim and all everyone does is cry about what might happen if they don't bow before the tyrants?

What state is this? Got a holiday weekend coming up and money to burn
Eh don’t wanna disclose
Then why bother mentioning it. Useless anecdote.
I’d say most never stopped outside of the cities and those that did just ignore it now. These “emergency powers by governors and mayors need to be stripped. State legislatures, city councils and court systems need to fight back. I haven’t seen one case of someone’s liberties being upheld in court For defying these “orders and laws”. If you have one please post it.
More and more, it seems city councils are also part of the problem.
I do not understand how they have the power to shut down businesses nationwide and force people to stay at home for several months.
They only have the power we allow them to have. We have allowed it, because we're all scared of getting a bad cold. We still are. You still get looks of abject terror if you show up somewhere without a face diaper
Not even a bad cold. My brother had it and ran a 5:20 mile with it. Never even had symptoms.
Well, I'm not afraid...and I've been working in the public this entire time (no mask unless in a store that requires it).
They don’t. I imagine there will be a boatload of lawsuits in the near future.
The Covidphobes need to stop demanding the rest of us submit to their mental abuse.
Every lockdown in the world is to get rid of trump. We're the only country that has a trump so the lock downs are only worshipped like a religion here.
Trump said the virus was vicious, and we have to shut it down. He also says wearing masks is patriotic. He has enabled the hype, and controlled it.
This is Belarus and not the UK. Don’t push this because you’ll look like a fool who fell for fake news.
I thought something was up
I never cared about the picture. The post wasn’t about the picture- it was about wanting AMERICA to do this. We have enough people on TDW to organize a real movement.

The conditioning works.
You ain’t lying holy crap

Source video?
It was just a picture, but here’s a video of it. https://youtu.be/txLqG-vSpa8
The picture in the OP is of the belarus protest. Not uk.
Why do people do this?
I never cared about where the picture was. It’s not about the picture- it’s about us starting a movement in America! That is why we need organization. We need to set a date, everybody and their friends get in on it, and then follow through on it. Power in numbers!🇺🇸
From back in May?
Also that video does not contain the image in the original post.
The point of the post wasn’t Britain, it was about US. I want to see Americans set a date and collectively open everything back up in large enough numbers that nothing can be done to stop us.

Agreed but I wanted to know what I was looking at in your OP and I am still not sure if I do.
That's belarus I believe
It was never about the picture. I don’t care if it was a movie set. I’m calling for AMERICA to do this! That is why we need organization. We need to set a date, everybody and their friends get in on it, and then follow through on it. Power in numbers!🇺🇸
Remember it was all about flattening the curve, to not overwhelm the hospitals??
When did we forget about that?
Just saw your comment. How did the visit go?
I’m glad to hear he’s well and that you had a chance to open the Bible today😊❤️ I just started Ecclesiastes. I always love Solomon’s wisdoms.

You as well😊
They can't arrest everybody!
Exactly!! Power to the people🇺🇸
LOL pepes tried that in MN low and behold got threatened to have their business license revoked unless they comply. Only way this works is an actual rebellion against the state government to remove the Leadership.
The secret is, a business shouldn't need a licence from the government to operate, nor their consent.
Life liberty and pursuit of happiness. Those are inalienable rights. It’s a violation of the god given rights of the people to require the government’s approval before starting a business. It’s basic as hell and somehow people roll with it.
yep, after watching Kitchen Nightmares, how the F did those businesses stay in business!
Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness... as long as you have all the approved licenses and paperwork, and our annual permission in writing. Now pay me taxes, peasants.
How else would corrupt govornment officials pick winners and losers!! That's the role of the government, right?
Oh, no! License revoked?? Who cares?-They already aren’t allowed to be open for business! That’s exactly why the fight is worth it. That is why we need organization. We need to set a date, everybody and their friends get in on it, and then follow through on it. Power in numbers!🇺🇸
The problem is that takes numbers, the only way it works is if too many people do it to punish. And big tech makes sure we can't organize.
We have TDW. I’ve been calling for organization for months on here. We have plenty people in every corner of society on here to start a real movement. We just have to organize.
Do you mean to say that this platform is also controlled by big tech?
cUKistan!!!!! takes a breath.
GOOD!
Brits grew a pair.
After this get together and do something about Sex Trafficking Grooming Gangs and "no-go zones".
Big tech. You can't organize a massive on-switch for society. Twitter/Facebook/Google will remove your effort.
And what about this website?
How many normies know about this site?
It's hard to say because it seems this site doesn't display a subscriber count. Or am I just not finding it?
They needed to break into the government buildings and physically remove the officials that are destroying their lives. Get those crooks out is the only way. There is no way they could be arrested or stopped. That was their chance.

Oi! You gotta loisense fur dat mask?
Looking forward, we need to examine the laws that give these local authorities the power to close down businesses. We need to elect officials willing to work to repeal/amend these laws. I think that is the long win.
Yes. They need to all agree to do so. They can't punish everyone. Or maybe they can because these fucking dummies decided to give up all their guns.
Just Do It
I think we need to start encouraging and celebrating daily acts of disobedience. Go walking with your mask off, invite your neighbor over for some BBQ, play soccer with your buds. I think there are ways we can start to break the conditioning without Making ourselves an Easy target.
