@GhostOnTheHalfShell@masto.ai This is our country without resistance.
How hard is a general strike, people? You literally don't work!

@grumble209@kolektiva.social @GhostOnTheHalfShell@masto.ai For people who earn less per hour than a loaf of bread or a gallon of gas…a general strike is impossible. We don’t have the ground resources to support feeding people. For a general strike to succeed it has to be a societal endeavor, and will require the middle class to join ranks with the worker class, and we have to have plans to feed and prevent evictions for those who join. That said, the food crisis that is coming is likely to start full scale revolution with looting, and at that point, all bets for peaceful protest start to look out of reach.
