It makes literally not a single difference if all of us here boycotted them or not. It’s meaningless.
Just lemmy users? Sure, but you don’t stop with just lemmy users.
These billionaires are making more money than they ever have in human history
Honest to god do you think that money magically appears in their pocket. We can still claw it back. Unionize, boycott, collective action is our strongest pressure against them and IT DOES WORK.
People who can’t afford to unionize cannot afford to not unionize.
On god please. However,
Start with taking back schools as safe places from gun massacres. If you can’t do that you can’t do shit. It’s a basic litmus test for a functional society.
Is not even close to true. There’s far more important issues to tackle that kill more kids. Focusing on that as the baseline when it’s tiny compared to the damage companies environmental damage and car do to kids is mixed priorities. We can focus on multiple things, but the priority should be on what’s killing the children in far greater numbers compared to the much smaller totals of school shooters. Focusing only on the sensationalist headlines instead of the greater dangers is misdirection from what truly is at the root of the damage to our society .
Which also makes it interesting you point out all Americans have is lies, when you yourself were fed the lie that the most concerning danger to children is guns, instead of cars, or pollution
My husband has always said immigrants fleeing their country should stay behind and fight and now he’s looking at countries that would accept us.
That’s interesting. I’ve always agreed with that logic. But I’ve decided to stick it out no matter what happens.
I signed the strike card at the general strike website but it’s taking too long before they call the strike. I fear that website will get raided and all the sign ups will be lost. 😞
Unfortunately that’s not how strikes work. They need critical mass or it will do nothing. It needs to have everyone on the list willing to risk their house, home, and livelihood to make it happen. And to you need to realize not even close to enough people are willing to do so.
If you haven’t already, try getting a union involved in your workplace, as a unionized workplace will allow far more successful organization of such events. Align a union you create yourself with your coworkers with UAW’s mass strike line, join their cause
It’s always been a department of war.
