We are taught that #Gandhi and his #nonviolent protests won #SouthAsian countries their freedom. What, then, of the #RoyalIndianNavyMutiny from #ThisDayInHistory in 1946? 78 ships, 20,000 men, widespread rioting & #GeneralStrikes on shore, and a savage (& expensive) suppression.

That's why we need #GeneralStrikes right now.

Dems also need to use this DHS shutdown to require a suspension of ICE activity during the week of the election.

Trump doesn't need to take over the polls. He can just shutdown the streets outside major Dem-leaning polling stations with ICE raids.

Yes!

More #GeneralStrikes against the MAGA regime.

It's the best way to split the oligrachs from the fascists

One brief #GeneralStrike in Minneapolis and Trump and MAGA are backpedaling (Dems have started to act too)

We need to keep pressing. #GeneralStrikes are the way to split the oligarchs from the fascists.

I saw that Guardian post.

But American democracy is not "on the brink". It's gone. The foxes control all areas of the hen house. They are blatantly ignoring all the rules, have destroyed the Constitution's checks and are bringing in more foxes every day.

We are now in a fight to restore democracy (or at least get back to the more-democratic state before the MAGA oligarchy seized all three branches). Time to move to #GeneralStrikes

Sad, but #ThisIsAmericaNow.

Please don't spread this talk of US violence.

If you want to break the MAGA stranglehold, have rolling #GeneralStrikes and cut off the donor and grifters' money.

@thetnholler.bsky.social the protests are going to have to be right in front of the Sinclair and the Fox offices who perpetuate and steadily increase the horrors, and people will have to escalate to a series of #GeneralStrikes

Yes!!

Trump and his oligarch backers are never going to yield control willingly.

It will take a rolling series of #GeneralStrikes to get the oligarchs to break with Trump.

Security Guards & Disability Workers fight for a Fair Go

Today three stories. We go down to the Public Housing towers in the inner Melbourne Suburb of Fitzroy to hear from MSS Security Guards covered by the United Workers Union taking industrial action for fair pay and conditions. We find out why the Australian Services Union has called a national day of action for the 23rd of October to protect fair wages and conditions for workers under the Social Community, homecare and disability services award. and we find out more about the how Italian Unions were able to successfully manager two general strikes within weeks of each other in support of Gaza.
