‪Stop blaming strikes for economic damage. Strikes are a logical response to overreach and greed from corporations and the wealthy. If there is resulting economic damage, look to those who drove the workers to strike in the first instance.‬ https://universeodon.com/@georgetakei/110735742133200337

They’ll keep the culture war going
Because they all believe they can hold that off for the next generation to deal with. They don't think it'll happen now.
I think general strikes like those seen in 1919 might come first.
