You mean like the one that the No Kings organizers are planning for May Day?
You can keep coming up with reasons why it’s never enough, or you can show up, be a part of it, boost for visibility, collect names and numbers/emails for your org, network with other orgs in your area, and contribute to the collective effort and momentum that’s underway.
But if you prefer to be a naysayer and always move the goalposts, then, well quite frankly I don’t have the time or energy to try convincing you otherwise…
i am interested in their general strike, though i do think that spacing it out so far from a protest is hurting the effort, for a dramatic “may day” but a general strike is more in line with what i was thinking would be necessary.
I think it’s a delicate balance they need to walk. They need to maintain widespread appeal to keep engagement up without exhausting everybody participating.
Every small victory builds momentum, but it has to be sustained. Trying to go all out all at once is a recipe for failure.
