It's time for a wide spread, old school "blue flu" style strike. On Nov 23, call in sick to work. The more people who do this, the more impact this will have. This is especially true if you work in service industries such as fast food resturants or box stores.
If you can get the day off without getting fired and losing your only source of supporting yourself, then join a one day strike against corporate control and the exploitation of the working class. If you have a job, call off for the day. If you run a small business, shut it down on 11/23/11. Don't go shopping, close out your bank account.
The economy is powered by the workers. We have the control. The ownership class has forgotten that for too long. Remind them.
SPREAD THE WORD
General strike on Nov. 23
Show the world that we are powerful
Fuck stalinists.
Have you considered the Anarchists, as was suggested? I guess it's a pretty broad definition, and look at Chomsky- he isn't going on the barricades, he is arguing and pushing forward his cause purely through the power of the word. Check him out.
And one more thing: Haters gonna hate.
Well. I may not be allowed on the forum much longer. For those of you who actually tried to explain your position and help me learn, thank you. For those who jumped at every baited question, thanks for playing. For those who think I'm an asshole...well ya got me.
I thought you spoke quite a lot of sense in your ''I'm not a leftist, leaving thread''. I just want to say that we are not all like the people you describe - but those sort are quite prevalent on revleft.
