That’s only effective on the blahaj instance.

Join the union and find out. Most unions are still following the old ineffective strategy of advocacy instead of organising. But they are usually somewhat democratic so you do have a say in that.

Jane McAlevey No Shortcuts: Organising for Power in the New Gilded Age is a great book to learn about unions and union strategy
- Comment on What keeps Americans from being mad about the state of their country? 6 days ago:
A strike takes a lot of preparation, most of which is unionising and convincing your coworkers to join the strike when it’s time. A strike at a workplace is only successful if 75% of workers join in on it. Some US unions are ready for it, but a lot aren’t. If you want to contribute, join a union or start unionising. Resistance is built from the bottom up and strong unions are the most effective method.
Read Jane McAlevey No Shortcuts: Organising for Power in the New Gilded Age to learn about how to make a successful union and how powerful a successful union can be.
- Comment on Why isn't free stuff (public domain/noncommercial) discussed as much as paid stuff? 1 week ago:
Paid services profit if they reach a broader audience so they pay people to post on forums and other social media about their services.
- Comment on I'm just like some ordinary dude upset about what the government is doing. Doesn't anyone with any sort of means or influence care? Where are those guys? 1 week ago:
Anyone with any sort of means of influence has a way to profit off of the situation. Resistance needs to happen from the bottom up.
