Italy on Brink of Civil Disobedience as Public Defies Absurd Virus Decrees
Businesses joined a pact to reopen together, defy Maoist shutdowns
The revolution of mass civil disobedience starts tomorrow in Italy. As a domino effect it will then spread to all other countries. The hashtag is #IoApro or #IOpen in English.

Italy adopted a three-way system of restrictions shortly before Christmas and has since been changing up measures on a regional basis depending on the latest coronavirus infection rate data. Restaurants and cafes in several regions have been forced to shut down or operate as takeaways only to avoid people assembling in large groups indoors. But several businesses across the country have begun to protest demanding “clearer” and fairer rules from the Government.
Rome restaurateur Max Vietri kept his pizza restaurant open despite the anti-Covid measures currently in place in Rome.
Speaking to Euronews, Mr Vietri said: “If this civil disobedience – because that’s what it is, it’s civil disobedience – is successful, I would like to stay open.
“I have always wanted to stay open. I don’t want to close anymore. Either all business close, as we did last March then that’s ok with me but you cannot force me to shut down and leave other businesses open.
“You must have clear rules. This is a Government that changes the rules every week. That is absurd.”
Fellow businessman Armando Minotti said he is willing to be fined but wants to keep his restaurant open after months of forced shut down.
Mr Minotti said: “We can’t do this anymore. This is what we could call a polite protest.
“Surely the guards will come but we will let them in. We will get a fine but we are have decided to stay open and we won’t close anymore.
“Because it’s impossible to go on like this.”
Reports from local newspapers highlight repeated acts of defiance from across the country, with partygoers fined for attending a maskless celebration in a restaurant in Milan.
Francesca Lazzerin, a restaurant owner in Turin, reported she was forced to shut down entirely for five days after taking part in the “I’ll Open” protest earlier this week, serving dinner to customers despite lockdown order.
Restaurants, pubs and cafes across Italy have been allowed to remain open to the public in those regions designed as Yellow zones but have been reduced to takeaways or delivery-only in all Orange and Red Zones.
Five Italian regions currently fall under the lowest level of restrictions, while 13 are mid-risk. Lombardy, Sicily and the autonomous province of Bolzano will be moving to the highest level of restrictions from Sunday.
Students have also been lamenting the ban on attending classes in-person, with several pupils organising sit-ins outside of school to demand funds for additional protective measures to resume lessons.
Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte has warned Italy is on track to experience the third wave of the pandemic unless social distancing measures are observed.
Speaking after announcing the latest changes to the restrictive measures, Mr Conte said: “A surge in infections is coming to us too after Great Britain, Ireland and Germany.
“It won’t be easy, we still have to make some sacrifices.”

As long as they wear the mask the powers really don’t care. The mask indicates your obedience to them and your stupidity to a obviously mislabeled disease.
As shown in this article, governments are using the COVID-19 pandemic as an excuse to dictate rules for our most intimate lives:

The Cult of COVID is alive and well.
All respects and cheering all of you on!
This is what is needed in the USA!
I wonder why most people don’t seem to think for themselves. I’ve been telling people and give them the evidences about the so-called virus and they still believed the “virus.” ??? I’ve talked to people including some “Doctors” and knew many were stupid, but never thought it could as bad as it is now.
