Which would you choose?

After reading the post about Nelson getting the Covid vaccination made me wonder what I would do if given the choice to A) Go along with the church and it's slow journey towards Babylon. Or B) Maintain my belief in various freedoms and the "old beliefs" of the gospel
What I mean is what if the church cracked down on those who keep speaking of freedom, America, whatever you like. Recall the church purging the survivalist in the 80s/90s. Or the ordain women group today. If they demanded us to quit participating in forums such as this or face disciplinary council what would you do. Fall in line and humble yourselves or continue your outright rebellion and suffer the consequences? I for one would maintain my beliefs as I do today. I understand the teachings that whatever the priesthood binds on earth is bound in heaven. Do I believe that if I were excommunicated that somehow my marriage would become invalid in the eyes of the Lord? Absolutely not. If men, including the church leaders, make mistakes as mortal men then their decision to kick me out for some sort of rebellion is also not valid in heaven. So what are your thoughts? There is no right or wrong. Would you submit to the leaders and give up your "extremist views," or would you raise your own Standard of Liberty and raise a giant middle finger?
