Good moment to join a union by yourself (and/or a socialist org like the PSL) and ask or directly organize yourself together with such orgs!

Is there no union or organization locally that you can ask? Protest isn’t an individual action, it’s a social organized action, so you ideally should get involved with local orgs or your work’s union for this

Don’t you have a student’s union or representative? Get informed locally on your rights and possibilities.

I’m also in the EU, and I’d much rather get some posts calling for grassroots political action than the constant “elon said something Nazi again”.

Organizations like the PSL do have lists of demands and are actively building a movement around this to gain momentum. You should check them out :)

How does this affect anything?

It’s a momentum thing. one general strike won’t change the world, it’s the start of a much larger movement to get people to organize in socialist organizations like the PSL (remember socialism has always been fascism’s greatest enemy) and in unions. A one-day general strike is not a “perfect is the enemy of good” logic, it’s simply materially impossible to get everyone to rally in one week, or one month, or likely one year. It’s just a start and a show of strength.

There are such thing as medical personnel strikes. Typically, public sectors organize so-called “minimum services”, so they leave a minimum of people to stay in the hospitals / trains / buses for obvious reasons, and the rest go out to protest. A day with fewer nurses and doctors may be bad, but fascism is lethal too.

Yeah but I’d shift the phrasing from “nobody wins from war” to “carpet bombing of civilians by an imperialist power is evil”

Hey Cowbee, I’m back after deleting my account referencing your name lmao. I appreciate you bringing up your knowledge about the two counter-revolution events in Hungary and Czechoslovakia.

Would you be interested in me doing a review of a book by Radoslav Selucký (economic advisor during the Czechoslovak counterrevolution attempt) called “El modelo Checoslovaco de Socialismo” (the Czechoslovak model of Socialism, printed in West Germany and later translated to Spanish and published in Fascist Spain)?

Nobody wins in war

The Vietnamese won, as a matter of fact, and liberated themselves from colonialism as a consequence
