This has been all over lemmy, but… of course the corporate channels most people pay attention to wouldn’t cover it.
Comment on People’s Union USA Calls For National Boycott In A ‘Feb 28 Economic Blackout’

So, you have to give a little more than 48 hours notice when you decide to organize a large scale national protest action.
Look to be planning for the event to be somewhat out in the future, to give time for the plan to be spread and heard by the masses. When you just throw something like this out with two days’ notice, you’re not going to make any change larger than 0.00000001%… not enough people possibly hear about it to be able to participate.

I remember reading about it last month… Not sure what it will accomplish but it’s easy to participate when one can’t afford anything beyond food, shelter, and transportation despite working 40 hours per week plus mandatory overtime, at more than four times the minimum wage.

I’ve been hearing about this since January.

I had it in my calendar weeks ago to get my shopping done for the weekend done today. Where have you been?

Perhaps you need to plug into better sources.
This personally hit my “if I hear about this one more time I’m going to scream” level of exposure
