    You could start with a general strike and stop funding this corrupt, pedophile protector administration. Just do it properly, not for the show for half a day.

      True. A general strike is great. We don’t have a good foundation for general strikes and worker protections right now, though. So, we’d probably have to get that structured first. Funding is a little harder to control. That would require some sort of tax withholding, which seems harder to do, but I’m not an accountant. A lot of our taxes are taken out by employers, but you could argue about a federal income tax strike or something. I’ve heard people considering it.

      But, you see, that’s a lot harder to see on its own. Those aren’t ways to accomplish them. Right? I think pushing people to set up mutual aid groups and such is going to help coordinate that planning. You’ll need food, housing, and money for a prolonged general strike, as well as a means to coordinate. People have to work together, and that takes talent and dedication.
