A 'we will not comply' movement is slowly formulating across social media, spurred by Donald Trump's renewed focus on mask mandates and COVID-affiliated lockdowns that he initiated at the pandemic's inception.
Trump, in a video posted Wednesday on X, formerly Twitter, vowed to reject any "fearmongering" of new coronavirus variants and if elected president pledged to cut federal funding for entities like schools and airlines that follow such protocols.
Trump was the individual who set the original mandates and lockdowns in motion, however, when coronavirus cases escalated exponentially starting in March 2020. At the time, he urged individuals to avoid bars, restaurants and other areas where 10 or more people were gathered in the hope that the virus would dissipate by that summer.
"'Do not comply' means your [sic] not going to go to work if your employer requires a mask as part of the 'mandate' not law; your [sic] not going to wear one at the Dr, Dentist, restaurant or stores," wrote one Facebook user. "Imagine if everyone did not comply how that would hurt our government or economy.
"If every American did not go to work or buy anything at all for one or two days things would get real. We are all slaves to our Government until we stop conforming to the demands and dollar."

I never complied with the last one. I am sure as hell not going to comply with this one.
Media letting Dems know that they need to cool it.
Dems are going to war against Russia to lock everything down anyway.
And when elections are being done, the Dems will say, “The other side wants us to lose! They’re traitors!”
Then they’ll try to imprison people for being against the war.
These people back off when someone calls them out, but then they push back twice as hard.
The first thing the article mentions is Trump. Lockdowns and masks were done by states and local health departments.
This is getting ridiculous.
I as well.

Trump never did mandates, those started with the Democratic Biden regime. Note that when somthing is "urged" it is not a mandate, only a suggestion. Neither is it a "mandate in motion". To contrast, Biden used a mandate to force all large business to shove the vax into the arms of employees, with some exceptions for religious and medical reasons.
As they charge Trump with interfering in the election, the DemoMarxists interfere in the election
Exactly. I noticed the same thing.
Typical. The left always accuses us of what they are doing.
Uh. No. It was individual state governors. He would only have control of federal facilities.
Trump never had anything to do with mask mandates nor is he pushing for them now.
They are the ultimate hypocrites. Like these Proud boys and the other Jan.6th protestors sentenced to long prison terms, the one Proud boy sentenced to 17 years today. For WHAT? For taking a guided tour of the capital?
Can you think of one Antifa or BLM member getting anything even close to that? Those guys were throwing Molotov cocktails into cop cars, blinding cops permanently with hand held lasers, bashing cops over the head with bats, destroying property, burning the Federal courthouse in Portland, taking over a cop station in Portland, plus 4 years of riots in every major city for 4 years causing billions in damages and not a peep of a trial.
And then we get into the Russia collusion hoax, spying on Trump. These are the people pointing fingers?
Oh, it will be MUCH worse than that.
I intend to inflict physical pain and financial loss.
Also, Trump still says that the vaccine was one of the greatest accomplishments in human history.
The 15 percent who never complied are laughing. I know, I am one of them. The 85 percent who kneeled to the vax are already gone. They will never stand.
Ask yourself where were you Easter of 2020… obeying trumps lockdown or worshipping corporately with their fellow believers.
He empowered Fauci to rile the country, so I’d say he did. Fauci didn’t Hire himself.
Well, if I’m voting for Trump again, I can’t keep faulting him for the crooks, liars, idiots and tyrants he hired. Just have to hope he learned something and won’t put people in charge again who will let or make those things happen.
