‘Organize a general strike’
You mean the thing they quash here with prejudice? The thing the US will build a jail on top of you for? The thing that they’ve prevented a majority of Americans from even attempting with the fucked social net and the paycheck-to-paycheck existence, dangling you just above homelessness (which they do nothing to fix or help people who are)?
Maybe in another part of the country I could feel that my neighbors and myself would provide and help one another, but I can’t even get these people to pick up their dog shit, let alone vote in their own best interests, or god forbid, take on the government that’s telling them I’m the devil and my cohorts are demons.
I agree with the want for one, but I think people’s wants and wishes get in the way of the colder reality. I used to think things like the trail of tears would be impossible to happen in the modern day here with technology and social mediabl, but honestly?
