13 posts13 participants1 post today

Thank you to our organizers across the country spreading the word: we need more than just voting and protesting to overthrow fascism. We need a #generalstrike because under capitalism, our greatest strength is our labor and our right to refuse it. GeneralStrikeUS.com to get the count to 11 million so we can take power back into the hands of working Americans. 🌱🌎✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽

Go follow @the.whisker on TikTok for more.

I've been thinking a lot about how we here in the U.S. can #Resist #fascism. I have an idea.

Start planning now for a simultaneous day of #resistance and a #generalstrike for #mayday.

In addition, I propose that you find your own way on May Day to commit an act of #sabotage. Because #FuckDonaldTrump.

Spread the word. Get organized!

Take care, be safe, be well.

If the record-high levels of voter participation in the last three elections are any indication, Americans are more engaged — even if they don’t know more — than they ever have been. If the close elections of 2016 and 2024 are any indication, the public is deeply divided. And if Biden’s uniquely decisive win in 2020 is any indication, Trump is just not that popular, despite the intensity of his cult following that can make it feel like the whole country loves him.

They don’t. He can be beat. But he is not just going to lie down, and the institutions are not designed to stop him.

So we are going to have to at least try. Or we will be lying down. #resist #resistance #uspol #politics #protest #trump #generalstrike open.substack.com/pub/jeffreyf

"one doesn’t see exactly where or how to move. Believe me, this is true. Each act, each occasion, is worse than the last, but only a little. You wait for the next & the next. You wait for one great shocking occasion, thinking that others, when such a shock comes, will join with you in resisting..."

In case you haven't signed up yet, don't forget the impending General Strike!
generalstrikeus.com/aboutus #generalStrike
Yes, #SROP will be striking when the iron is hot enough.
Meanwhile, this is your reminder that the #SROP business model is anti-economic, "free books to good homes, always", so don't hesitate to ask. Follow the bread crumbs. Check our Red and Green catalog pages.
Make sure you have enough books to last for the duration of the strike! #bookstodon #books

The General StrikeWho Are We? — The General StrikeThe General strike organization is dedicated to creating real change by striking against The System. This country still does not work on behalf of its people. By striking we deny the corporations their greatest power - IT's labour.

Rep Jim McGovern calls for a nationwide General Strike. This a mainstream Democrat, asking the public to break the law. Yes, General Strikes have been illegal in the U.S. since the 1947 Taft-Hartley bill, written in the wake of the 1945-1946 strike wave, the largest strike wave in the history of the U.S., when literally millions of workers went on strike, from steel, electricity, automotive, to coal, electricity and numerous other industries. This strike wave included General Strikes in Lancaster, Pennsylvania; Stamford, Connecticut; Rochester, New York; and Oakland, California. In total, 4.3 million workers participated in the strikes. It was the closest things we've ever had to a nationwide General Strike since the Great Upheaval, 1877.

Also, remember that the 1968 upheaval in Paris, which spread throughout France, was students AND workers, included a General Strike, and forced Charles de Gaulle to flee the country as his government collapsed

PortsideRep. McGovern and a National StrikeIt’s not a lot of laughs being a Congressional Democrat these days. Their party is a mess. Partisan loathing is on high boil. If you’re a veteran liberal like Rep. Jim McGovern (D-Second District), every day brings the dismantling of something you spent years building.
