I welcome the attempt. A general strike takes a fuckton of organization, and we struggle to even get small workforces unionized. We will be working against efforts by strike busters and the massive far-right propaganda machine to disrupt our efforts and to divide us.
And then, we’d need someone to chart out the comprehensive demands, and then figure out a way to enforce them when the ownership class decides nah and retaliates with paramilitary force instead.
It’s going to be very difficult, and there are going to be a lot of setbacks.
For the moment, the way I see it, Americans are glad to be miserable and have ICE killing Americans for a little bit longer so long as they get to verify their masculinity, own the libs, put immigrants in torture prisons and deny to trans folk gender affirming healthcare.
But I would be delighted if the people of the US, who totally betrayed me (and themselves) in 2024, are now willing to fight back by the tens of millions.
How bout this? Let’s do a general strike and test it out.
