    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.
