General Discussion
Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsWe are not ready for a general strike yet but boycotts are a good idea and do-able.
I've been discussing a general strike. I heard people talking about it at NO KINGS.
Today I saw a very realistic, rational, thoughtful video about what a general strike requires from Americans and how we are NOT there, at least not yet. Boycotts (especially at the holidays) has been mentioned a lot in the comments. I've realized they are correct and wanted to share this info with DU.

Besides, their HEro said we should do without, and that American kids can make do with "two dolls instead of a dozen."
So let's do that. Come Black Friday and The holidays, fk the retailers.
And btw, maybe those in the service industry can start dishing out shttier service to those elites who don't mind shutdowns, and layoffs, and firings, and NOT PAYING people, yet expect everything to go on as if none of that is happening. fk them too.
