I'm not sure I understand what you are implying. Care to elaborate?

The solidarity and mutual aid brigades(?) will keep people from being evicted, make sure nursing homes are running perhaps more efficiently than ever before, that crops are being picked but instead of going to market they would go directly to the people.

Strike Funds are generally used to take care of workers basic and essential needs during the strike. If the General Strike is wide and effective enough, perhaps those funds will be unnecessary.

I think a way to inspire people to consider the General Strike as a viable action we need to feed the imagination of what we all can and will need to be doing during the strike. All the different ways we will need to spring into action. How we will protect the vulnerable, feed and defend.

We have to actively prepare our communities to strike. This means becoming reliant on each other rather than corporations.

Free fridges, community potlucks, food distribution, community gardens. Direct cash resources to help people pay bills, childcare, etc.

Pro(tester) Tip:

If you march at a busy intersection, use the crosswalk and erupt in thunderous noise as you cross. Then, let cars go, wait for the next signal to erupt again. Repeat

Blocking traffic gives police an excuse to stop you, _and_ letting cars go gets the word out to more happy drivers!

And it was what the people did during the strike/boycott, all the solidarity and mutual aid and organizing that was happening that made it all such a successful and empowering action.

...and if we want to not only survive but thrive in an uncertain present and future times we need to learn to be more flexible and comfortable with uncertainty, and that means becoming more knowledgeable but also flexible in what we think we know and open to new ideas.
