Seriously... If y'all want a general strike, we need:
* 2 weeks' notice to plan
* Conditions for when the strike ends
Assuming this even got enough traction to catch on, one 3-day weekend isn't going to do anything.
This almost feels like "corporate manipulation": Let the slaves "have a day" to cool off and feel like they've accomplished something, then get 'em back in the mines!
- llbbdd 9mo agoThis is all strikes. People love to point to the strikes that got us forty hour work weeks and women voting but they forget that the other side has had time to respond. So now we waste our time with this instead - and look at your proposal seriously. What kind of strike give two weeks notice to the entities you're striking against?
- embedding-shape 9mo ago> * 2 weeks' notice to plan Here you have two more further in the future: https://www.fiftyfifty.one/ https://www.fiftyfifty.one/ > February 17th: Impeach, Convict, Remove, Defund > March 28th: No Kings Out of those two, I'm guessing the "No Kings" one will be the larger. > This almost feels like "corporate manipulation": It is indeed! Manipulating the corporations by showing that people can actually decide to stop working, and it generally scares all the executives because they realize (yet again) that it's actually them who depend on the workers, not the other way around.
