Help us bring more people in. The more support we have, the quicker we can mobilize to build infrastructure, to strengthen mutual aid, to create food distribution solutions, to build up strike funds and the resources to publicize the General Strike more effectively. #GeneralStrike

I'm struggling to get over what we saw today.
The amount of gaslighting, cruelty, ignorance, abject cowardice, arrogance, indifference to human life, and deceit we saw from Trump and Vance...we saw behavior we associate with enemies of the United States inside the Oval Office.
That's traumatizing.

He’s been co-POTUS for 4 weeks. Not even a month.
And they’re already calling for the likely future leader of the Democratic Party—a nonwhite woman—to be put in a cage. Twitter has many tweets like the one below.
Everyone needs to understand: America is on very limited time now.
Fascism is here.

I see too many people fall into fatalism or resigned. Don’t. Fight
Remember: If we allow ourselves to fall into fatalism, or wallow in disappointment, or become resigned to what is rather than what should be, we will lose the long game.
The greatest enemy of positive social change is cynicism about what can be changed.
