Bongino talks about a parallel economy in this piece that locogringo posted on Honeybee's thread. It is inevitable that a parallel polis develops here in America as it did in Czechoslovakia, during the Soviet occupation, as discussed in this 2017 article in The New Yorker.

As this movement gains momentum, the liberal cabal will become weaker and weaker. I think they know it and they are scared and that is why they have become more violent and oppressive?

I have a cheap but very fuel efficient run around car, and I'm displaying my patriotism on it with a couple of bumper stickers. You know where I live and so far so good.

I'm done being intimidated, but I fully understand your position.

On a side note...........we use simplisafe and they are about to get an earful from me.

Watching people trying to use a viral epidemic as a revolutionary weapon - and all the lying - it's all terribly frustrating. But - screw them. Their game is almost up. A couple of weeks ago I came back from a trip to Portugal. They had all kinds of rules, masks in various public places… all the usual nonsense. But, their fatality rate was about 5 people a day - out of a population of about 10.3 million. Right now, I’m visiting in Nassau county NY. Population is about 1.2 million. Their recent average death rate from CoViD was just about 1 person daily.

As far as CoViD is concerned, it is no longer a huge, scary public health concern - that is over. It’s in the rear view mirror.

I have a pretty good understanding about what’s going on with the vaccines (outside of the vicious - and likely, illegal - pressure from our authoritarian rulers). Half a year or so out, the vaccine still offers some protection against getting the disease - and fairly significant protection against getting the disease in a severe form. The claim that 100% of the public have to be vaccinated in order to control the epidemic - is a dumb lie. So is the claim that the vaccines are better than natural immunity. People should not be forced to be vaccinated - that’s probably illegal. As it is unnecessary from a public health POV. Parents who want their kids vaccinated should be advised about potentially serious side effects - as well as about the rather questionable risk / benefit outcomes.

All those mask and vaccine wars served as a distraction from the border issues, Afghanistan… and other worrisome news.

I don't know what the Amish numbers look like.

But they've all got horses, right?

Being people of faith death hold no terror for them. Unlike their fellow Americans who think death means oblivion. And shiver with every breath.

I think its safer to have unvaxxed travelers enter the US since they have a better chance of having robust natural immunity that has not been impaired by the vaxxes
