We need a general strike in the USA. Let's make a list of demands, pick a date, and threaten to withhold our labour and crash the economy on that date unless the demands are met. Organize general strikes across multiple industries, boycott anti-union companies, maybe even do bank runs and deliberate attempts to crash the stock market and weaken the US dollar. Get the campaign to trend and go viral on other online platforms. Organize concerts and art fairs to raise money for strike funds to support the striking workers.

here's my ideas for demands to start

Demands:

Medicare for All
4-day work week
$15 minimum wage
Unionize Amazon, Walmart, and Starbucks

good strike dates:

may 1 - international workers' day
july 4 - independence day
sep 1 - labor day
nov 28 - black friday

Me taking the day off every time someone makes a post like this and writing "general strike" for the reason.
