    I am in the EU. There’s no reason why I should know this. Keep the US in the US-related communities, thanks.

        Depends on how much we (finally) detach from them and start acting as a world power.

      I’m also in the EU, and I’d much rather get some posts calling for grassroots political action than the constant “elon said something Nazi again”.

        I get all of those already. Don’t need them in a general advice community.

      or you could have some common decency and join the strike in solidarity instead of being a whiner

        Tell me how I could do it from here (that is not sofa activism like “like and share”) and put THAT in a YSK.

          if you’re not in a Union join one, ask around your national unions what it would take to organize a solidarity strike. international strikes are pretty common around the globe

            Strikes are organized against one’s own government on topics for which the government has skin in the game.

            That’s why Italy, Germany and France see protests against the genocide of the Palestinian people: because those countries sell weapons and buy security systems from Israel.

            Now tell me what exactly you think any of those governments could do against the decades long fall into fascism and plutocracy that the US is experiencing, while the same billionaires fund our own local nazi parties.

            The only thing that we should keep saying is don’t touch the sick corpse.
