I'm thinking we need to bring a lot. Like NOW.
One day of boycotts on the 28th wasn't even close to enough.
It needs to be a near total economic blackout except for stocking up on staple foods combined with a General Strike. We don't just need Depression Era recipes, we need depression era recipes aimed at cooking and feeding hundreds at once. It's going to take that level of commitment of mutual aid teams cooking for their community all day every day.
Look, violence is coming anyway but we don't need to demand the violence first. We can make great headway with non-violence and that gives us time to organize and prepare and have people ready to stand watch and protect when the violence comes.
50501 is doing state capitol protests again tomorrow I believe, and there's a Ukraine protest at the House office building in DC, and there's a No Kings protest tomorrow at I think the Capitol ahead of his address to congress. There's a lot going on, but none of them are big enough and not enough people know about them.
A. That one day was not all that is on the plan. 2. You can't get people to do a general strike with out starting from somewhere. See point A. C. Time organize, prepare, etc.
