What about those of us who have to work to put food on the table? Attending a protest or rally is one thing, but participating in a general strike is something else entirely.
Your life is yours, and how you participate is up to you.
I can’t just call out of work for this, but if another protest is planned a bit more in advance I will totally go. I think there are a lot of people like me who would attend these protests if they were a bit better planned.
It’s ok. You don’t have to, this may not be for you. It’s really not difficult to plan for, but that’s my opinion. People protest not because it’s easy, but because it’s important to us.
You can sick out.
If you can’t do that, I for one understand.
I have regretted every protest I skipped and none of the ones I attended, for what it’s worth.
That’s all of us, homie
It’s not calling for a general strike
It’s literally calling for a general strike on Feb 28 and March 15. No work, etc. on those days.
If you want to count 1 day as such then sure, but then you don’t get to act like taking 1 day off is some big ordeal that will impact people
If it got 10% of the workforce participating for one day, it would make the powers nervous.
30% participating or more than one day would make them panic, like the Hong Kong protests.
A one day outage does nothing. Even people supporting that day will get their shit done the day before or the day after.
Christ, look at Portland, 100 straight days of protests did nothing.
