And to strike
I would join one if it happens. I feel like one of the best ways to strike is just to stop buying shit. The economy thrives on American excess and consumption.
So you think people are going to pass on the last Christmas of We The People of the United States of America? You’re not wrong in your method but it’s like trying to get your workplace to unionize when they’re running on inertia, fear, and conflict avoidance.
Most people you know are conflict avoidant, sadly.
Christmas is a losing battle for a consumer side strike. We gotta pick our battles, and that ain't one of them. Pretty much any other time of the year would be fine, because for the most part people would only be personally sacrificing consuming things for themselves.
