@thewokebloke: There are organizations somewhere near you doing this work, and you’ll actually like this work #leftist #communist #mayday #socialism #politics

vegan :

Socialism is the only way to give the power back to people! Good video!

Zelda :

This is the kind of communication we need. There's a reason so many of us don't know what a strike really is, and those who do are understandably impatient. Seeing you out there and making this gives me hope. 💜

farzad :

this is not a general strike. a general strike continues until demands are met. like the one Shawn Fain and the UAW are organizing for 2028. but this can help advertise for that real general strike

Solidaridad

Brady :

I worked the Tucson May Day it was great

xxvi :

garr :

Hell at least it’s during the work week 😅

Burgernaut :

ayo where is this??

Common Sense :

It will grow

Brick Meatcastle :

It also shows power structures that you aren't bluffing. If they see multiple, large scale strikes, they'll take threats of striking more seriously. It's small, but it's something

☭ LesbianLeninistStalinist ☭ :

“Strikes occurred in Russia in the seventies and sixties (and even in the first half of the nineteenth century), and they were accompanied by the “spontaneous” destruction of machinery, etc. Compared with these “revolts”, the strikes of the nineties might even be described as “conscious”, to such an extent do they mark the progress which the working-class movement made in that period. This shows that the “spontaneous element”, in essence, represents nothing more nor less than. consciousness in an embryonic form. Even the primitive revolts expressed the awakening of consciousness to a certain extent. The workers were losing their age-long faith in the permanence of the system which oppressed them and began... I shall not say to understand, but to sense the necessity for collective resistance, definitely abandoning their slavish submission to the authorities. But this was, nevertheless, more in the nature of outbursts of desperation and vengeance than of struggle. The strikes of the nineties revealed far greater flashes of consciousness; definite demands were advanced, the strike was carefully timed, known cases and instances in other places were discussed, etc.” What is to be Done chapter 2 section A. “The Beginning of the Spontaneous Upsurge”

gerard :

protest during working hours, if you want results you HAVE to halt production/services

Phil 🇨🇦 :

One day is also a threat of more days.

🏳️‍🌈carebearstare🏳️‍⚧️ :

to the critics: I'm sure that you're building alternative systems right now in the meantime so that when we do a massive strike with no end, people will be fed, sheltered, clothed, etc. If you want to shut it down, we have to have the alternative systems in place.

This. Will no kings and other sanctioned protests cause a sudden revolution? No. But those moments are where you meet others, join and support other organisations and do the menial tasks needed to BUILD up to revolution.

Khan-40k :

Socialists seem to be out of touch with reality and no, 99% of the time these protests don't accomplish anything 😂.
