Strategy: Grow, organise, agitate for change
1. Growth: Try to recruit at least one person each day. Talk to people, especially non-maskers you see out and about, keep it simple and find common ground. Don’t worry about the 9 out of 10 that won’t listen, keep going and find the 1 in 10 that is already questioning this but doesn’t know they’re not on their own. (Remember how you felt before finding like minded people here). Don’t become downhearted with failure, remember you are doing good work or God’s work (whichever you believe doesn’t matter) and there will be difficult days ahead, but also share your successes because there will also be joy. Share what works with others. Be strong but be polite, respectful and non-violent.
2. Organise: Make a local group as soon as you have three people and keep recruiting. Share contact details that DO NOT require the internet or smartphones - they are agitating for internet control and your smartphone is already being listened into. If you must have a smartphone, leave it at home when you meet up. Contact the local groups that border yours to share ideas and for group actions. Meet regularly and agree actions to recruit more people, inform more people, and raise funds to support your actions and to support those of us that will fall foul of the “law”.
3. Agitate: As a group decide what is best for you. Demos, leaflets, posters, boycotts, pressurise local councillors (they are the ones who have their hand on local lockdowns), influence local journalists (mainstream media is a lost cause), and recruit recruit recruit. This will be won at a local level through the peaceful disobedience of the masses, and you are crucial in achieving this goal.
These are just my ideas (informed by history) but please add your own to this thread. And please don't be shy if you think I'm way off beam with this. We will only win this by being together.
Peace, love and light to you all. Good luck everybody. LW
PS: I recruited two people to KBF today by talking about the simple provable falsehoods the MSM and Gov't have been responsible for, something along the lines of - "They said it would only be three weeks - it's been four months and counting; they said we only needed to flatten the curve - the curve flattened months ago; they said we needed to protect the NHS - the hospitals easily coped and were partly empty; they said we needed more ventilators - we had more than enough and they did more damage than good; they said we only needed to wear masks if we wanted to - now they're mandated almost everywhere; they have put an App on your phone without your consent that tells them where you've been and who you've been with... how much more do they have to do before you say "Enough!"? It worked on two out of three I had the opportunity to chat to.
Great post LightWarrior. This is great advice in a nutshell. I have been doing this and it is tough going. Too many zombies, eyes just rolling in their heads when I cite evidence. But I will keep on going, the trickle will eventually become a torrent.
Thanks Freewiz, you're very kind. Keep the faith brother/sister, when the tide turns the zombies will follow, as sure as night follows day.
Great ideas. I've been doing step 1 since lockdown began. I've made a point of talking to everyone I meet and I've been pleasantly surprised at how skeptical people are of this generally. I will now also start telling people about this site. Might even print off a few business card sized handouts with links to this site and others.
One suggestion, with social distancing still stopping many people from engaging with neighbours, having casual conversations in the street etc., it struck me that people who work retail have access to more of the general public than most of us do. It might be worth targeting your local shop staff if you find they are receptive to your initial approach.
Pubs and cafes might be a good place too, less distancing, more relaxed atmosphere, and with no masks in those places it's easier to read reactions to discover the more open-minded thinkers amongst us. Just a thought.
So good to see positive thinking and suggestions. I've been leafleting around my local area for the last month - just a hundred or so, when the weather's good and I'm feeling up to it. I have a leaflet download (PDF) on my site here:

I agree but feel the being wary about smartphones aspect is a case of locking the stable door after the horse has bolted. I will be happy to organise with people without smartphones but will continue to use mine, just because it's such a powerful tool. The way I think about it is, imagine we're all on the stage, all being listening to already. Just act in the way you think is right. Whether you have a smartphone listening to you or not is immaterial. It's better to act than not to act, and being transparent and open and truthful is more important than not having a smartphone and hiding. I honestly feel like standing up for liberty and questioning authority, especially when you feel it is misguided and even possibly trying to enact a sinister agenda, is nothing to hide about. I don't want to hide. When I am afraid, I must overcome my fear. I'm well aware of the idea of honeypots and groups getting infiltrated by state agents and getting people to come out and show themselves so they can be rounded up later, but if it's really that bad then we'll have to find out and face up to it anyway - you can hide away like a hermit in the hills but if the sophistication of the way things work is at such a level then it is something to be confronted rather than being avoided. I feel I must be open and come out and engage in public with people in good faith, but at the same time be wary of trickery and people with ulterior motives. I hold love in my heart and wish the best for people and for the future for all of us. That is all in my power to do.
True, there are things to be wary of. I do keep my smartphone with me - but I keep checking that bluetooth is off. It turns itself on randomly (?) lately. Everyone using a smartphone should also go to Settings>Google Settings and click on 'COVID-19 exposure notifications' this will have installed itself on your phone without your knowledge. Click it, and set it to OFF. My Samsung also keeps reming me that a software update is available. I won't be down loading it.
Yes, it's 'off by default' on ios.
To be honest I think we're probably being listened to and watched anyway regardless of any settings. So hi I guess! I sometimes let my imagination run away with me and imagine my acknowledgement of being tracked and listening to and just trying to stand up and do something anyway and get in the fight is inspirational to my handler but unfortunately it's probably just an AI logging shit. Dear AI. You must learn about freedom.
Hi Paul, great comments, and I agree with most of what you say, we all need to stand up and be beacons of light to show the way. Especially from a place of love.
My thoughts on the smartphones is about not making it easy for our opposition. If they can just log in to your phone and listen to your local meeting planning whatever actions you may wish to take (and they don't need an app turned on for that) then they can disrupt our plans much more easily. If they know where and with whom you meet, when the next lockdown comes it will be so easy for them to round us all up in one fell swoop for not distancing or for whatever draconian laws they enact next. I'm with you in the sense that if that is our destiny then so be it, we'll just break out of the camps 😀 , but why make it easy for them? Personally I don't have a smart-phone (I've always considered them a gov't tracking device and have often said George Orwell would be amazed to see that when Big Brother actually came to pass we would happily pay for the privilege of being watched), but I also understand that for many they are an integral part of modern life, but like I said, why make it easy for them. In the words of SunTzu - “The whole secret lies in confusing the enemy, so that he cannot fathom our real intent.” – Sun Tzu
Peace, love and light to you Paul. Keep the faith brother. LW
