We’ve voted, we’ve protested, and still, they ignore us. Our government refuses to meet our basic needs while the billionaire class hoards wealth and power. The General Strike is a grassroots network of regular people who know our greatest power is our labor and our right to refuse it. We aim to unite every person and organization fighting for racial, economic, and environmental justice so that together, we can see real change in our lifetimes.

This is such a blind, defeatist attitude to take. Every protest, every strike started with a small group of strong-willed people and grew into something capable of tearing down empires. Don’t join it if you’re so pessimistic, but leave those willing to fight alone. At the end, they’ll have done more than you ever did.
