Have you thought about cordinating strikes or something similar? Just stop crucial parts of society. Refuse to work as a union. That’s what we in Europe use to do, if something is completely wrong with our leader.
Yeah, that doesn’t really work in the US. You kind of need worker protections for that to work. We, the liberals of the US, have been fighting for them for decades but haven’t been very successful across the board, only in a few states. The US has more people than it has essential roles for the most part, unless I can convince a majority of people in my work sector to agree to strike it won’t really mean anything.
EDIT: My work says I can take leave, after that I am no show, after two strikes of no show at work without cause (protesting isn’t a cause) I can be terminated. So following your model I lose my job and nothing changes unless everyone else does it at the same time. No, we do not have a union.
“Unless everybuddy does it at the same time.” - that is the point… everyone does it, at the same time.
You think our work protection would protect us in a case like this? It wouldnt. But we are a much more connected people apparently, who shares the same values. We wouldnt just let this go on. Even if it meant I would loose my job, this would be bigger than me. This is for our childrens future.
