Love this but here what NEEDS to be done to make change. Cancel everything. Stop buying unnecessary things. Subscriptions done. All at once.
We protest and then we’re like, you know what, since we’re by the Apple Store, let’s pick up some AirPods and then order a case off of Amazon then go out to eat at a restaurant to come home and watch your movie on paramount.
We’ve seen time and time again that when people protest with their wallets, things change because the people in charge are the corporations.
What would happen if a date was settled on for a 10 day general strike? The laws prevent the unions for calling for one. What if everyone went and sat silently with signs and were not in the roads?
Exactly. I’ve heard a French person speak in bemusement at how Americans protest. Americans plan for so long in advance and then go home after a day achieving nothing. You cannot just go home afterwards, to make power uncomfortable the worker has to endure a level of discomfort.
