The Jan 23 MN strike was the most successful such effort in the US in…decades, maybe almost a century? And it was baby-sized compared to what we’re talking about here.
I don’t know who needs to get on board to make a national strike a real possibility. But I do know that we should all be thinking about it now.

@inthehandsPaul Cantrell I think the most important of your thread is the "right now" part. If people decide it necessary and jump on board in the weeks leading up to the election, it will be too late to have maximum effect, and may even deepen the crisis by ratcheting everyone up to 11 when they're already likely to be on edge.
