Gas and groceries will have minimal impact because people will still need them. They'll just buy it another day
Realistically how do you expect this to work? I didn't hear anything about it until today, and it's going to be real hard to get people to do a general strike en masse with such short notice especially without them being actual members of organizations. Are there even unions supporting this? I appreciate the energy but doing a shitty attempt at a general strike (on a Saturday no less, when many people aren't working to begin with) will just make the resistance movement look bad
This could be effective if it was done twice a month
Literally no. It only works if you stop consumerism, full stop. food and necessary gas are fine to buy. But if you stip buying most things the economy will slow. And they'll notice. But people don't know how to properly boycott. They want their cake and to eat it too.
About labor unions endorsing this, they will not want action this weak. If they're going to commit it will be a full commit, not some half hearted BS
For a full week at least
We gotta figure out food and medicine, but IM on board. We need labor unions to jump in on this though. We have to make this much bigger than a lemmy post.
If 100 people do this, doesn't mean much.
A true patriot would join in this movement of their fellow American working class peers. Let's see some chaos!
