Call in. Do it tomorrow, nationwide.
Prove that you can do it for just one day.
Post your stories here.
We are almost out of time.
Now is the moment.
The line has been crossed.
—Edit, in response and due to requests from comments:
We need a one day nationwide flex tomorrow.
No. It's sadly can't wait.
Yes, other general strikes can also be planned, however—tomorrow needs to happen in a big way.
This admin is not waiting for us. Those that can should do what they can now. One day (tomorrow, 5/15) is approachable, and remember: while we all debate the how and why—letting perfect become the enemy of good enough—they are moving faster.
They are moving faster than congress. Faster than the protests. Faster than the press. Faster than your states. Faster than you or I can digest the last bit of news. Faster than the courts.
Nobody debates on if they have crossed the proverbial line anymore.
We cannot wait any longer. We need a powerful one day nationwide flex in response.
They are not waiting for us to organize better.
Read that last line again.
EDIT 2-
I still think we have to change the rules.
They will not be waiting for us to organize.
If social clout and reach is important, share this post. Get a member of congress to share it today. Someone in 50501 has connections.
I'm done explaining away why something can't be done now.
Let's not be like everyone else on up the chain.
Make an example of yourselves. Use your connections, and if you are the only one striking, well at least that's you
But this constant need to get buy in, get approval, seek timelines, plan out future dates is our Achilles heel. It's what Europe talks about in disgust when they perceive Americans as just going along with it.
We've got to start now
As news spreads, let them join us
Anything else will be easily countered by this admin.
They don't stop and plan stuff out.
Sure, plan for next week. Or month. But ALSO tomorrow.
Because, frankly, I think 50501 is in real danger of being crushed once the admin has their pawns in place.
Our time is almost up.
Tomorrow we need to start with us.
Spread the word.
Final EDIT- (gotta get a break!)
To the naysayers and peeps worried about reach / turnout / effectiveness:
My first 50501 protest drew 5 people. We're a small town.
This last one drew 1500. Once again, we are a small town.
Movements start with you and me.
Let's begin the work.
