May 12, 2021\u00a0(LifeSiteNews)<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 On Saturday, May 15, people in more than 40 countries will participate in the second World-Wide Demonstration protesting the unprecedented COVID-19 restrictions that have severely curtailed basic human rights, calling for an end to \u201cubiquitous public incarceration.\u201d<\/p>\n

Since the spring of 2020, severe measures have been in place in most countries as part of an advertised bid to prevent the spread of COVID-19 infections. More than a year after the onset of these restrictions \u2013 which were typically introduced as \u201ctemporary\u201d \u2013 the number of people opposing them has grown substantially.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The May 15 event is organized by\u00a0World-Wide Demonstration<\/a>, which started as an action group in Germany in the spring of 2020. On the one-year anniversary of the start of the restrictions, the group staged the\u00a0first global protest<\/a>\u00a0on March 20. Cities across the world saw protestors march against lockdowns, mask mandates, and mandatory vaccines.<\/p>\n

Buoyed by that success, the second event looks to build on the popular support in a march for \u201cFreedom, Peace, and Human Rights.\u201d
\nIn a recently released press release, the group highlighted five \u201cimportant freedoms\u201d that will be the subject of the upcoming protests: \u201cfreedom of speech, freedom of movement, freedom of choice, freedom of assembly, freedom of health.\u201d<\/p>\n

The group stated that \u201cexcessive coronavirus restrictions must come to an end, and all state of emergency declarations enabling these measures must be repealed.\u201d<\/p>\n

Furthermore, it called for an end to the \u201ctyrannical suppression of dissenting voices,\u201d as well as the police response to such opposition, which was described as being \u201cviolently crushed\u201d by police and law enforcement.<\/p>\n

Clearly stating its firm and vocal opposition to measures such as mask mandates, mandatory vaccines, vaccine passports, and movement licenses, the group noted how its supporters would not tolerate such measures being imposed. \u201cWe cannot allow our Human Rights to be re\u2013packaged as Human Privileges, to be conditioned upon compliance with Authoritarianism.\u201d<\/p>\n

The group pointed to an \u201cInternational Freedom Movement\u201d that is \u201cbuilding alternatives to established power structures, and ways of living.\u201d Mentioning an exodus of people from populated cities, and societal resistance to the COVID restrictions in all walks of life, World-Wide Demonstration proclaimed that \u201csociety is pushing back against pervasive and restrictive socially enforced norms.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Light of Freedom cannot be extinguished. Throughout history, humanity has been tried and tested in difficult times, but in the end, Freedom Always Wins. We call on all opponents of the coronavirus restriction policies of their own government to participate in this World-Wide Protest.\u201d<\/p>\n

Germany\u2019s domestic intelligence agency\u00a0recently created a new section<\/a>\u00a0specifically for surveillance of a small number of people and groups protesting coronavirus restrictions. Meanwhile, the United States Postal Inspection Service, a law enforcement arm of the USPS that most Americans don\u2019t know exists, was\u00a0revealed<\/a>\u00a0to be spying on Americans\u2019 social media.<\/p>\n

Fox News\u2019s Trace Gallagher\u00a0told<\/a>\u00a0Tucker Carlson that this revelation \u201cbaffled\u201d legal experts \u201cfor two reasons: One, because by surveilling American social media accounts, the U.S. postal service is monitoring lawfully protected speech, which of course raises constitutional concerns.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd two, if Big Brother mailman is looking for criminal activity, that would normally be the FBI\u2019s job, and yet according to a memo obtained by Yahoo News, the U.S. Postal Inspection Service is running what it calls the Internet Covert Operations Program, or ICOP. And the primary objective appears to be collecting data about planned protests, in the document obtained by Yahoo.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gallagher continued, \u201cIn the document obtained by Yahoo, Big Brother Mailman was looking for inflammatory posts about the worldwide Rally for Freedom held back in March. That’s where thousands of people around the world protested COVID lockdowns. But instead of looking for potential nefarious behavior across the board, the main surveillance was of Facebook and \u2018right-wing leaning Parler and Telegram.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

\u2018We choose to live free\u2019<\/h4>\n

The May 15 protest is being held in multiple locations that include Australia, Argentina, Brazil, Canada, France, Germany, India, Sweden, Spain, the U.K., and the United States.<\/p>\n

Details of the event, with locations and times, are being shared on the social media site Telegram. World-Wide Demonstration\u2019s official page can be found\u00a0here<\/a>, in which details of all the events are listed as they are announced, along with a list of the various countries, cities, and group chats giving specific details.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe corrupt and contemptuous actions of governments and non-government organizations during the coronavirus pandemic is an international problem that calls for an international response,\u201d read the statement.
\n\u201cWe choose to live free.\u201d<\/p>\n
