  2. I am looking forward to the general strike that is being organized to happen in 2028: thenation.com/article/activism

    This strike has real major unions behind it, so it's actually a serious ordeal. It's not one of those frivolous calls for a general strike on the internet that happen every now and then. This is real, and it has momentum.

  3. I've heard 28th Feb and March 15th for general strike and / or economic shutdowns.

    Do NOTHING on 15th of March 2024, where possible. Any change is more impact than none. mindly.social/@manvsxerox/1139

    Spend nothing on 28th of February 2024 except in cash with small businesses, where at all possible. Anything is more impact than no change.

    Similarly, remember or look into the one planned for 2028.

  4. Some quick thoughts about a #GeneralStrike -

    If you’re in a union, go to your next local’s meeting, and ask about setting up a strike fund. Some unions already have this, but some don’t. There’s no paycheck when you’re on strike, so plan for that.

    A lot of unions hold meetings in shared buildings or labor temples. Politely ask other union leaders if they’re willing to coordinate efforts in a general strike.

    I was all about #GeneralStrike2028, but I don’t think we have that much time.

  7. @samiamsam I’ve been told that if the railroads were to go on strike, some power plants would run out of coal in just a few days. Fuel distributors will run out of gasoline in a week. If there’s a general strike, and the railroaders get on board, we’ll be back in the Stone Age within a month.

    As a railroader myself, I am DOWN with #generalstrike2028! #solidarity #labor #UnionStrong

  8. I just want to hug Cory Doctorow!

    "Fain led the UAW to an historic strike [...] then called upon every union to bargain for contracts that run out in 2028, because if every union contract expires in 2028 [...] when the next presidential election rolls around, it’s going to be in the middle of the most militant moment in a century of US labor history. That is an opportunity.

    Labor movements fight fascists. They always have."

  11. @WorkingFamilies BNSF Railway - the world’s most profitable railroad, which Buffet owns - made roughly that much money last year. They’re cutting workers. #GeneralStrike2028

  12. Sorry #UAW, but 2028 is FAR too late for a #GeneralStrike.

    That's 4 more years of the elite and powerful letting #COVID cull the population. None of our governments will go back to doing the right thing — the end of COVID protections PLUS the ongoing #gaslighting around it just like HIV / AIDS in the '80s and '90s — is making that loud and clear. Even the most holdout of nations are abandoning protections under the immense pressure of the U.S.A. to pretend that the world is normal. Don't underestimate my country's reality distortion field.

    Stop showing up. It's time to flex that power so that at least politicians are reminded of who they serve, and where the wealth generation really happens, and how #billionaires will need to begin to redistribute that wealth lest we go from work stoppages to working on guillotine construction.
