Isolation techniques—Quarantines, social distancing, isolation from loved ones, and solitary confinement.
Monopolization of perception—Monopolizing the 24/7 news cycle, censoring dissenting views, and creating barren environments by closing bars, gyms, and restaurants.
Degradation techniques—Berating and shaming (or even physically attacking) those who refuse to wear masks or social distance, or generally choose freedom over fear.
Induced debility—Being forced to stay at home and not be able to exercise or socialize.
Threats—Threatening with the removal of your children, prolonged quarantine, closing of your business, fines for noncompliance with mask and social distancing rules, forced vaccination, and so on.
Demonstrating omnipotence/omniscience—Shutting down the whole world, claiming scientific and medical authority.
Enforcing trivial demands—Examples include family members being forced to stand six feet apart at the bank even though they arrived together in the same car, having to wear a mask when you walk into a restaurant even though you can remove it as soon as you sit down, or having to wear a mask when walking alone on the beach.
Occasional indulgence—Reopening some stores and restaurants but only at a certain capacity, for example. Part of the coercion plan is that indulgences are given, then taken away again.
It is time to ask ourselves some very pressing questions. Is it reasonable to expect government to eliminate all infection and all deaths? They’ve proven they cannot, yet we keep relinquishing more and more freedoms and liberties because they claim doing so will keep everyone safer. It’s an enticing lie, but a lie nonetheless.
Sooner or later everyone must decide which is more important: human rights and constitutional freedoms, or false security. The good news is that many are starting to see the writing on the wall; they’re starting to see we’ve been had, and are starting to choose liberty over brutal totalitarianism in the name of public health.
Remember what Ben Franklin once said: “Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.”
