There is no third option. There is no walking away. There is no hiding from it and there is no passive solution to it.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Joe Biden\u2019s recent declaration of a federal level nationwide vaccine mandate has all but ensured that conflict is inevitable. Why?\u00a0 Because it is the first major step towards a two-tier society in which the unvaxxed are cut out of the economy. The next step? Forced vaccinations under threat of fines and imprisonment, the threat of confiscation of one\u2019s children, or vaccination at the barrel of a gun. Needless to say, this was not at all surprising to me. In December of last year I published an article titled\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/alt-market.us\/if-you-thought-2020-was-bad-watch-what-happens-in-2021\/\">\u2018If You Thought 2020 Was Bad, Watch What Happens In 2021\u2019<\/a>, stating that:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201c<strong>There will then be a major push to require medical passports proving a person is not infected to enter into any public place. This means submission to 24\/7 contact tracing or getting a new vaccine whenever ordered to. Basically, your life will be under the total control of state or federal governments if you want to have any semblance of returning to your normal life\u2026..New mutations of COVID-19 will be conveniently found every year from now on, meaning the public will have to get new vaccinations constantly, and medical tyranny will never go away unless people take an aggressive stand.\u201d<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I have also mentioned often in the past that Biden WOULD institute federal level vaccines mandates and possibly even Level 4 lockdowns. We are not to the point yet of lockdowns by executive order, but the Biden Administration is trying to dive headlong into the control agenda with\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/covidplan\/\">an executive order<\/a>\u00a0stating that all businesses in the US with 100 employees or more must require those employees to provide proof of vaccination or demand employees show a negative covid test weekly (which will be impossible for most people). In other words, the Orwellian rise of vaccine passports has officially begun in the US.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Not only was Biden\u2019s announcement an utter violation of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, it was also condescending and vitriolic towards Americans who refuse to become guinea pigs for the experimental and untested vaccines.\u00a0<\/strong>Biden suggested that the establishment \u201cHas been patient, but their patience is wearing thin.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>I have to say, Biden is in for a shock if he thinks we care.<\/p>\n<p>I can\u2019t cover every single lie and logical fallacy in Biden\u2019s speech because that is not the purpose of this article. I can only once again point out some very basic logical conclusions and pieces of scientific evidence which debunk most of Biden\u2019s nonsensical blather. Since he seems to be so interested in why we are \u201chesitant\u201d, let\u2019s go through this ONE MORE TIME, shall we\u2026<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>1)<\/strong>\u00a0The median death rate of covid according to almost every single medical study and every official government tally\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.medrxiv.org\/content\/10.1101\/2020.05.13.20101253v2\">remains at 0.26%<\/a>\u00a0of the infected. Given that around 40% of all covid deaths happen among people in nursing homes with preexisting conditions, it is likely that the actual death rate is much lower. But let\u2019s just say that it is in fact 0.26% \u2013 Why is there any need to impose draconian medical controls over a virus that 99.7% of people will easily survive? Why not create a support fund for the 0.26% of people that are truly at risk so they can stay home while the rest of us get on with regular life?<\/p>\n<p><strong>2)<\/strong>\u00a0Throughout the course of the pandemic in the US the largest percentage of hospital ICU beds that have been occupied by covid patients is 17%. That is the PEAK of covid in the ICUs. For the past few months the percentage has been closer to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/nhsn\/covid19\/report-patient-impact.html\">an average of 8% or less<\/a>. This is according to the government\u2019s own stats, which the CDC now buries instead of posting openly for easy viewing by the public. So, when the corporate media or Biden claims that the ICUs are \u201coverwhelmed\u201d by covid patients, this is a lie<\/p>\n<p>A new nationwide study of electronic hospital records on covid patients also shows nearly half of covid \u201chospitalizations\u201d are actually\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theatlantic.com\/health\/archive\/2021\/09\/covid-hospitalization-numbers-can-be-misleading\/620062\/\">people that are asymptomatic<\/a>, not deathly sick people as the media often portrays.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3)<\/strong>\u00a0The experimental mRNA covid vaccines have NO long term testing to prove their safety over the long term. At least none that has ever been released to the public. The average vaccine is\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.historyofvaccines.org\/content\/articles\/vaccine-development-testing-and-regulation\">tested for 10-15 years<\/a>\u00a0before it is approved and released for use in humans. The covid vaccines were rolled out in mere months. Again, there is NO PROOF whatsoever that the covid vaccines are safe in the long term, and there are already a number of examples of lack of safety in the short term. Why would we trust an experimental protein spike vax that has nowhere near the same testing history as the majority of other normal vaccines?<\/p>\n<p><strong>4)<\/strong>\u00a0Multiple studies in nations with high rates of vaccination, including a recent\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.beckershospitalreview.com\/public-health\/nearly-60-of-hospitalized-covid-19-patients-in-israel-fully-vaccinated-study-finds.html\">study from Israel<\/a>, prove that there is no such thing as a \u201cpandemic of the unvaccinated.\u201d In fact, 60% of infection cases in Israel are actually fully vaccinated people. Furthermore, Israel has found that vaccinated people are\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.science.org\/content\/article\/having-sars-cov-2-once-confers-much-greater-immunity-vaccine-vaccination-remains-vital\">13-27 times more likely<\/a>\u00a0to get infected than people with natural immunity, and they are 8 times more likely to end up in ICU.<\/p>\n<p>These findings reinforce data released a month ago out of Massachusetts, where 5100 covid infections\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcboston.com\/news\/local\/more-than-5100-breakthrough-covid-cases-reported-in-mass-at-least-80-have-died\/2435719\/\">were fully vaccinated people<\/a>\u00a0and 80 of them died. In other words, the vaccines don\u2019t work so great, especially when compared to natural immunity.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5)<\/strong>\u00a0Data from the Public Health England and the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/assets.publishing.service.gov.uk\/government\/uploads\/system\/uploads\/attachment_data\/file\/1009243\/Technical_Briefing_20.pdf\">NHS shows that the vaccinated and unvaccinated\u00a0<\/a>have almost identical rate of infectiousness. In other words, a vaccinated person is almost as likely to give you covid as an unvaxxed person.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>Now, let\u2019s present some rational questions in the face of this irrational covid circus of fear:<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>If the experimental vaccines actually work, then how are unvaccinated people a threat to vaccinated people and why should unvaccinated people be forced to take the jab?<\/p>\n<p>If the vaccines don\u2019t work, then, again, why should ANYONE be forced to take an untested and unreliable vax?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Slow-Joe argues that the vaccinations are \u201csafe and effective\u201d against covid, but only seconds later in the same breath he claims that \u201cunvaxxed people are a threat to vaccinated people.\u201d He promotes the lie that this is a \u201cpandemic of the unvaccinated\u201d, then says the vaccinated are in danger. Even a child could pick up on the inherent contradictions in Biden\u2019s claims.<\/p>\n<p>As always, the issue of \u201cmutations\u201d is brought up in defense of 100% vaccination campaigns. But if \u201cmutations\u201d are the concern, then why isn\u2019t the government addressing the fact that a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/2021\/02\/09\/965703047\/vaccines-could-drive-the-evolution-of-more-covid-19-mutants\">vaccinated population is just as likely<\/a>\u00a0if not more likely to create mutant variants of a virus when compared to unvaccinated people? Why are the unvaxxed being singled out as the supposed menace to society?<\/p>\n<p>The biggest question is \u2013 Why should anyone submit to covid mandates at all? Mandates are not laws, they are\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.justice.gov\/crt\/deprivation-rights-under-color-law\">color of law<\/a>\u00a0restrictions without legal merit. The bottom line? Unconstitutional orders are not to be followed. This leads us to the state and local strategies for fighting back against the federal passport mandates. Let\u2019s get into it:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Simply Ignore The Mandates And Carry On With Life As Normal<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>How does Biden plan to enforce these mandates on businesses? If they refuse to go along to get along, what can he do about it? Who would he send to threaten or punish these businesses? Who would be dumb enough to follow that order? Does he plan to send the IRS, the FBI, the Health Department? Someone has to do it, right? And what happens when a business is threatened and a crowd of conservatives in the community come to its defense? What happens when local and state law enforcement get in the way of federal agencies? What is Biden going to do about that? Answer \u2013 Nothing, at least not anything direct.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Indirect Method Works Both Ways<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If Biden is confronted with solid resistance to the passports in communities and states, there is really only one path he has left, which is indirect pressure through economic penalties. Biden WILL attempt to force states to comply by cutting of federal funds and tax dollars. This idea might terrify some people because there is a percentage of the population in every state that relies on federal EBT and other programs for their survival. However, the federal government can be punished in the same way just as easily by the states. Let me explain\u2026<\/p>\n<p><strong>Confiscate Federal Lands And Resources<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Any state that is cut off from its rightful share of tax dollars can easily claim domain over federal lands and the resources on them. It is the EPA restrictions on these lands that have been unfairly used to kill numerous industries across the country. With proper management, these resources can be used to revitalize state economies and offset any federal funds lost.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Offer Businesses Federal Tax Exemptions If They Relocate<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Red states can also punish the federal government by stopping IRS tax collections within their borders and turning the tables on Biden. Numerous businesses would be itching to escape Biden\u2019s high tax rates and would bring jobs and wealth into red states, leaving the conformist blue states in the dust.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Boot Federal Agencies Out Of The State Or County<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Local law enforcement is refusing to enforce mandates in many places, which is a good start, but eventually sheriffs and communities may have to remove federal presence entirely in order to stop violations if civil liberties.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Offer Safe Havens For Military Personnel That Go AWOL To Avoid Forced Vaccination<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A large percentage of soldiers say they will not comply with federal vax requirements and this is completely understandable given the evidence I just presented above. It would be to the benefit of red states to offer protection for soldiers that leave the military based on the principle of health autonomy. Perhaps they could even help in forming state militias\u2026<\/p>\n<p><strong>Reduce Restrictions On Medical Treatment Facilities \u2013 Start Vax Free Clinics<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>30% to 40% of medical professional depending on the state say they will not take the experimental vax, and they are willing to lose their jobs in the process. Why not get these people with valuable medical skills to come to red states and counties and let them set up clinics outside of suffocating federal regulations? This may even reduce the prices on medical care in many cases.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Form Trade Relationships With Other Free States<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Conservatives and constitutionalists need to organize and unify, and the best way to do this is to start with trade. It is likely that Biden will attempt to interfere with imports and the supply chain when it comes to red states, so they will need to stick together economically in order to prevent disruptions to the availability of goods. We need to rethink how states interact with each other and build more independent production and trade instead of relying on overseas suppliers. We will also need commodity backed banks with commodity backed currencies, because the buying power of the US dollar isn\u2019t going to last much longer anyway.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Unify For Defense<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If Biden and the globalists continue to push for medical tyranny in states and counties that do not want it, there will eventually be calls for secession. There will also be attempts by blue states to restrict the travel of people from red states using covid passport checkpoints. We all know this is coming. All conservative counties should be organizing localized security through public militias, and state governments should be thinking along these lines as well. If there\u2019s one thing authoritarians HATE more than anything else it is suffering the existence of free neighbors. They will try to stop us from being free, and we must be ready to answer their violence with our own.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Finally, I would like to speak to Joe Biden directly, since Joe was so keen on personally addressing us:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Joe, let me clarify this in the simplest terms possible so that you can grasp it \u2013 You are not important. You are not a lawmaker and you are not a ruler, you are an employee of the American people, that is all your are supposed to be. And though you may wish to be a dictator, that\u2019s not going to happen. We will not allow it. I realize that you are a puppet and that your globalist handlers make most of your decisions and write most of your statements for you, so you can pass this message on to them as well: WE WILL NOT COMPLY. It\u2019s not going to happen. Get used to the idea.<\/p>\n<p>We are peaceful people and always have been. Our tolerance of your trespasses thus far is proof of that. But do not mistake our peacefulness as weakness. If you keep coming after us, you will regret it. We will teach you an important lesson in humility; a lesson you and your elitist friends sorely need and will not enjoy.
