Lack of grassroots, well-structured organizing to kickstart a movement in an economy of 250 million workers.

The fact that a general strike hurts smaller and less-wealthy businesses first and hardest. It only further consolidates wealth and market share into the hands of mega corporations.

Loud, terminally online leftists need to stop romanticizing Eastern Europe in the 1950s and address the landscape in front of us today. Economies and the culture we face now is distinct from those in the past and require different tools to dismantle.

People in more precarious positions than now organized and that's how they got every concession ever. The conditions may be different, but it will only get worse without organizing and striking.

Ukw, fine. Perish. We don't care about Americans if they can't be bothered to care about themselves. Y'all won't even get off your fucking couch to do the bare minimum, and will come up with bullshit excuses to discredit the sacrifices others made to build something better.

And before you talk about Eastern Europe, no American that has ever stepped foot in an American political institution has even HALF the dignity, Integrity, and will power of an average Eastern European communist that built a socialist project with nothing to use as a frame of reference.
