It's easy to condemn people for following the mask rules and other dictates foisted upon them by their governors, county, and local officials, but the reality is that for those of us who live in blue states, counties, and cities flouting the rules can get you fined, fired, jailed, beaten up, or worse. And these repercussions don't stop with you. They can affect your spouse, children, friends, employer or employees as well, causing them to lose their jobs, homes, businesses, custody of their children, and other extreme consequences. So for most conservatives, who are often those most inclined toward law and order in the first place, the rational response is to follow the rules, or at least follow them enough to get by. That doesn't mean that they are not calling their officials, writing letters and editorials, and fighting in other quiet ways. They simply have too much to lose to go full-on rebel, and have chosen to live to fight another day.

As disappointing as this might be to those among us who want a full out revolution, it is, in fact, the rational response, at least at this stage of the game. I am fighting in ways in which I can retain my anonymity, and at least for now am trusting that there really are white hats with a plan to end these clearly
unconstitutional actions by the Democrats and their Deep State handlers and right the many other egregious wrongs this country and the world are being subjected to. I have seen enough confirmations and impossible coincidences that I am maintaining
faith, at least for a few more weeks. After that, sign me up for the revolution. There is a very fine line between being patient and being sheep. And when it is crossed there is no turning back.
