"Control Your Soul's Desire for Freedom"

Apr 21, 2022

In Shanghai, the Chinese government has placed metal locks on high-rise apartment doors trapping residents inside. People are leaning out of their windows, screaming for food and lifesaving medical supplies ... and more.

While people are begging the government to end their forced starvation, the government sent a drone to deliver a chilling message broadcast repeatedly in Chinese: “Please comply with Covid restrictions … Control your soul’s desire for freedom. Do not open the window or sing.”

There’s virtually no coverage by the media. That’s because scores of media outlets received the 1-billion-dollar payout from the Biden administration to run only positive articles about the COVID shots. Restrictions and lockdowns are spreading to other cities. In America, Arizona just partnered with Apple to launch the state’s digital driver’s license, and Arizona already offers digital COVID shot verification. What could possibly go wrong?

After weeks of a brutal, deadly lockdown, more than half of the 25 million people living in Shanghai are reportedly still under lockdown. Because the doors are locked in their buildings, people are reduced to opening their windows, banging empty pots and shouting to get attention as they beg for food.

One man called the police and asked if he did something to be arrested, would he be fed in jail? He was told no, the police would just return him to his home—which has no food.

Recently, a 65-year-old man desperately needed medical care for his 90-year-old parent. He was forced to jump out of a second-story window to try to obtain the necessary treatment.

Others were unsuccessful.

  • “Prof. Yu Huizhong at Shanghai-based Fudan University died, aged 79, on April 15, after experiencing a 4-hour wait for medical care.”
  • “[V]iolinist Chen Shunping ... committed suicide due to denial to care for an unendurable acute pain in the abdomen.”
  • In addition, “securities veteran Wei Guiguo ... died from delayed access to care following a cerebral hemorrhaging.”
  • “Wu Zhongnan, 78, from Shanghai Jiaotong University, died on April 9 after waiting for two and half days for proper treatment at the Renji Hospital’s emergency room.”
  • Credible reports keep rolling in from China. Some estimate as many as 3,000 people may have died from this lockdown.

These current events prove again in chilling fashion how deadly it is for a government to restrict your freedom and control your life.

Meanwhile the World Health Organization (WHO) is pushing a China-style Vaccine Passport globally and in the U.S., 25 states and the District of Columbia have launched or are considering Vaccine Passports.

The Biden administration, the CDC, the FDA and many state and local governments have acted unlawfully for more than two years. The damage is incalculable. It doesn’t take much to see how Vaccine Passports will be used to restrict your freedom, including your ability to buy or sell. Make your voice heard before it is too late by sending faxes to state and national leaders to stop Vaccine Passports.

There are about 400,000 foreigners living in Shanghai, and many of them are students whose dorms don’t even have tools for cooking in their rooms. Yet they are restricted from leaving.

Some people are even being forced to test in 2-hour intervals.

Now, the cities of Zhengzhou and Xian are telling people to stay indoors and work from home. These cities are home to a combined 24 million people.

While grocery delivery is supposedly available, the service is glitchy and blocks people who are trying to order. The lucky few who are able to actually place an order run into problems too. One person had his delivery delayed for six days! Meanwhile, there are trucks filled with boxes of rotting food because they are not permitted to deliver to these desperate people.

When a government is given too much information and control, this is what will happen. Remember during the church lockdown in California where the Los Angeles mayor threatened to turn off the water and other utilities of churches that dared open their doors for worship? If that mayor had the power that a Vaccine Passport provides when combined with other information, he or any other lawless official could switch off the church, the pastors and anyone who dared to worship.

The push for control through a digital health passport is much bigger than COVID. This is a path for total and complete government control.

Arizona just launched a digitized form of driver’s license for TSA checkpoints and other locations.

In addition, CO, HI, MS, OH and Puerto Rico plan to offer driver's licenses and state IDs in the Wallet app. Apple also said that GA, CT, IA, KY, MD, OK and UT “remain committed to supporting the feature, but no timeframe was provided for these states,” according to The New York Times.

Can you imagine if your driver’s license could be turned on and off based on your records and vaccine status? We need to stop this now.
