"Judge not lest be judged" is followed by "For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again." "Judgment" in that sentence is any type of punishment or penalty, not just discernment. What Jesus is saying not to do is not to punish people for something you think is wrong that they are doing or have done. He is not saying to disregard discernment or not to voice protest of a wrong. One needs to consider the whole paragraph to have the whole context and not just one part of it like many people do with the verse "Judge not lest be judged" (Mat 7:1-3).

JUST SO! Without judgments/discernment, we are blind sheep led to the slaughter by the evildoer technocrat wolves!
