    💯

    That's why we need #GeneralStrikes right now.

    Dems also need to use this DHS shutdown to require a suspension of ICE activity during the week of the election.

    Trump doesn't need to take over the polls. He can just shutdown the streets outside major Dem-leaning polling stations with ICE raids.

  5. Yes!

    More #GeneralStrikes against the MAGA regime.

    It's the best way to split the oligrachs from the fascists

    One brief #GeneralStrike in Minneapolis and Trump and MAGA are backpedaling (Dems have started to act too)

    We need to keep pressing. #GeneralStrikes are the way to split the oligarchs from the fascists.

    I saw that Guardian post.

    But American democracy is not "on the brink". It's gone. The foxes control all areas of the hen house. They are blatantly ignoring all the rules, have destroyed the Constitution's checks and are bringing in more foxes every day.

    We are now in a fight to restore democracy (or at least get back to the more-democratic state before the MAGA oligarchy seized all three branches). Time to move to #GeneralStrikes

    Sad, but #ThisIsAmericaNow.

  8. @czarnarewolta

    Please don't spread this talk of US violence.

    If you want to break the MAGA stranglehold, have rolling #GeneralStrikes and cut off the donor and grifters' money.

  10. @cdarwin

    Yes!!

    Trump and his oligarch backers are never going to yield control willingly.

    It will take a rolling series of #GeneralStrikes to get the oligarchs to break with Trump.

    🤞 the Chicago mayor is just the first to call for a #GeneralStrike

    Mass protests won't be enough - oligarchs trust the military and judiciary will break them.

    Mass mobilization requires rolling #GeneralStrikes . Oligarchs need the workers - and the military/judiciary won't help there.

    Where are the unions?

    Why aren't they leading a series of rolling #GeneralStrikes ?

    #DemocracyInAStranglehold

    (1/n)

    "I'm in the "I hope we can resurrect democracy in all of the countries including our own" camp and general strikes are coming."

    A few years ago, there was this book about the #US, #DemocracyInChains.
    In the #US, the next installment is in the streets, #DemocracyInAStranglehold, the same holds true for #Israel, and, increasingly, #India.
    In #China and #Russia, it has already been choked to death.

    Yes, #GeneralStrikes, as they would...

  19. @GatekeepKen Oh, I know. The main reason I posted the story is to show folks that #GeneralStrikes can send a message to those in power.
