Bringing in to line refers to the act of getting people or things to conform to a certain standard or expectation. The antonyms for this phrase would be rebellion, nonconformity, and resistance. When people or things rebel, they refuse to follow the established norms or rules. Nonconformity is the act of going against the usual or expected behavior or opinions. Resistance means actively opposing or going against something. Rather than conforming and falling in line, these three antonyms are all about going against the grain and refusing to comply. While bringing in to line suggests a sense of order and control, these antonyms convey a sense of disruption and opposition.
