And advocating for a general strike is ILLEGAL and a very easy charge in Trump’s America at this point.
I’ve been rolling around forums and whatnot to see the interest for such topics, and they seem high, but no one is talking about what I’m supposed to do to pay for my pets and apartment when I have 0 support structures in a deeply red state. They don’t treat the homeless very well here, and it’s freezing half the year.
Not that you’re saying it’s easy, you rightly pointed out food too. I just wish there were more resources, or ways to get connected. My community does the No Kings protests, but most of them balked at the Kirk shooting so they’re not quite radicalized enough for the other actions that a not-entirely-peaceful protest would bring.
I have a little, it’s to try and get me and my partner the hell out of this state. Not enough for a house, but enough for a used car and a u-haul and first and last month’s rent somewhere else.
A lot of us are living paycheck to paycheck, we’re lucky to be a bit above that and not have kids. Almost all the people we know from high school and college are in worse boats than us.
Personally, I think more of use should do little things, like damage government buildings, infrastructure, etc. primarily of right wing assets. You can get a used paintball gun pretty cheep, and in the dead of night from far away you could pelt a building with red paint relatively quiet.
Paintball guns are not exactly quiet and don’t have sufficient range to even allow you to stand outside the parking lot of most Federal buildings and still reach them, let alone outside of the purview of their security cameras. When you’re caught you’ll inevitably be holding a Gun Shaped Object, which is unlikely to go down well. I admire the spirit, but I’d advise you to think about that one a smidge harder, if I were you.
If you’re going to sabotage, then sabotage. Don’t go for middle school level vandalism pranks.
Yeah but Netflix has some shows I need to watch and I can’t do that from jail, soooo… fascism I guess.
More like food is expensive as hell and so I can’t really afford to loose my pay check. Which is why organizing often starts as mutual aide.
People who can’t afford to unionize cannot afford to not unionize.

So have no savings?

I’m waiting
Paintball trebuchet it is then
I’m down. How many 55 gallon drums full of 'em are we chucking?
Nah, it’ll be gym balls
I like the cut of your jib.
Apropos of nothing, I may be able to get my hands on a piano.
Good, some music should boost the morale of the trebuchet crew
Give me an example of an act that would meet your qualifications
Creating a security incident at a federal facility and then getting away. You don’t even have to do anything, just cause the alarm. For Example:
Drone “bombing,” meaning just fly a normal drone into a federal facility.
Puncture the tires of Federal Vehicles.
Post CEO home addresses online.
