French Translation

I have a lot of native French speakers in my area. Had anyone made French translations of posters yet? I have Spanish flyers ready, I just want to cover my bases.

One Modification to the Demands

It might be a good idea to change the "25% Corporate Tax" to "25% Minimum Corporate Tax" akin to the Alternative Minimum Tax. Might make a clearer demand and marks a point at which the corpos can't weasel out of paying their taxes.

Stop it with the "15% Corporate Tax" that is RIDICULOUSLY LOW

The "15% Corporate Tax" that is RIDICULOUSLY LOW. I am tired of seeing this 15% Corporate Tax slogan on General Strike posters. I realize some corporations pay nothing, so it would be an increase for them, but the US corporate tax rate is currently 21 PERCENT.

You are protesting for a LOWER corporate tax rate, which was near 40% only 4 years ago in the USA.

This strike has to be CLEAR about messaging, that protesing for LOWER CORPORATE TAXES IS INTOLERABLE!

I propose an idea

We occupy our workplaces and where we live
We take it back. Full stop. Inhouse strike and reorganize.

How do we know if the strike goals are met?

These are the strike goals, but how do we determine they've been met and the strike can end? Congress must pass a bill, and the president must then also pass it?

25% corporate tax rate (No loopholes)
Universal Healthcare for all
12 weeks paid parental leave
$20/hr minimum wage
4 day work week
Net zero emissions by 2030

Has any union decided to join this yet?

I curious if any have joined or not, has anyone approached them? Or members and have them ask their leadership?

National General Strike Facebook Page

I've created this Facebook Page (I have money run ads from this page). The name currently reads XYZ Business, but it should be updated in a few days.

$17 is less than our demands, but you get the point.

Strike termination laws

I am a young worker in the mechanic business and I’m fed up with selling my time for basic necessities and I will be striking on October 15th. I am worried about the employment repercussions when it comes to striking. Does anyone have any knowledge on the rights I have to strike?

Why only 1 day?

The reality of the situation is that striking only 1 day will not do a damn thing to these multimillion dollar corporations. We need to really make them hurt. We need to make them feel the struggle that we have been feeling for so long. Most importantly through all this, we really need to look out for and take care of each other. Buy only from your local farms or your neighbor who makes soap on Etsy. We need to STARVE them as we have been starving for so long. I propose we Strike not just for a day, but for a whole month. And if our strike hasn't had the desired effect after a month we must keep going. They expecting us to just phase out and walk away like Wall Street. We must hold strong. We must realize that standing up for what we believe in,has consequences and for that we must be brave. We must not let them threaten nor intimidate us.. because they will try. They will do everything they can to make us meek, obedient slaves. Realize this is our time. We are no longer in the Matrix. Their system is broken. Our system is broken. It's high time to create our own beautiful world. And I propose we make them strike out all taxes period. We deserve to keep every fucking penny we earned. I propose term limits on ever politician of no more then 4 years. After that, they have to get a real job. I propose community College be completely free. And I propose, we make them stop ignoring the issue of homelessness as every human being deserves love and decency. Who's fucking with me???!

Informing Employer about the Strike

I am a young worker planning to strike in October, I am wondering what I should tell my boss about the strike. I am also curious as to how long we think the strike will last. I have never been part of large scale collective action before so I don't really know what to expect.

Mutual Aid

If y’all are actually serious about this strike and don’t intend it to be a useless one day thing, start saving your fucking money. Lots of people aren’t going to last a single week without pay and there goes your strike. Pooling resources together is going to be as essential as getting the numbers needed to affect any actual change. Start a fund to pay for rent and food for those who won’t be able to afford it without any income. If not, delete the fucking subreddit because this is grandstanding at best and a psy-op at worst.

Hi, channel owner here. This is currently my opinion of the October Strike. That said, I think that anyone who takes interest in strike movements should take time to join the IWW and attend the OT101 training. That training will give you the tools to organize your workplace, and, ultimately, the tools to go on strike.

All power to the workers.
