Another tool in the toolbox: When large, rich corporations incorporate AI and start firing workers, maybe it'll finally be time to strike for a shorter workweek (not just less time, but less work too) at the same pay, and force them to hire those fired workers back. Keep people employed so we don't wind up with 50% percent unemployment or worse.
Black Out The System! November 25th - December 2nd. A boycott. A general strike. Don’t buy corporate! No corporate food, no corporate buying. Buy before and after, only at local community stores. Mom and pop stores. Then no shopping. Boycott corporations, support your community. Defeat fascism, defeat the oligarchs. We have the power!
I kind of like the total walkout the women did in Iceland fifty years ago. It seems quite a lot of progress was made, and it was remarkably better for them after that. There is a documentary, “The Day Iceland Stood Still”, 2024, floating around Europe and a few select film festivals in the US. We need that film aired everywhere in the states.
A national strike would also screw with the billionaire corporations during that same time period. Doing that has forced regime changes in other countries. It would send an even stronger message to those same billionaires that djt needs to go. Money talks and bullshit walks! They will stop dumping money into the candidates that he endorses. One candidate that comes to mind, in particular, is Vivek Ramaswamy running for Governor of Ohio. He needs to lose and lose big.
A general strike and boycott is what this country needs to make shock waves.
They have forgotten WE HOLD THE POWER OF THE PURSE: OUR PURSE.
