MikeDunnAuthor<p>Tens of thousands of workers marched throughout Italy today, while a General Strike brought transportation to a halt, and schools &amp; universities were closed, during a nationwide protest to end Italian support for the Genocide in Gaza.</p><p>If they can do it. Everyone can. Bring down the fascist Israel government and end the Genocide!</p><p>And we can also do it here, in the U.S., not only to end the Genocide, but to bring down our own fascist government. But here it'll be tougher, Require grassroots and wildcat organizing, since the unions have been blocked from engaging in General Strikes since the 1947 Taft-Hartley Act and have, for the most part, shown an unwillingness to support Palestine or resist the Trump administration.</p><p><a href="https://www.politico.eu/article/italian-workers-strike-support-gaza-palestine-state/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">politico.eu/article/italian-wo</span><span class="invisible">rkers-strike-support-gaza-palestine-state/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/generalstrike" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>generalstrike</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/gaza" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>gaza</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/freepalestine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>freepalestine</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/italy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>italy</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>workingclass</span></a></p>

Max Gregroom<p>(Maybe) hot take: a nationwide unsecured debt strike would be far more achievable and effective than a general strike.</p><p>Getting people to walk out of their jobs, risking their livelihoods, food, shelter, and so on is really difficult when so many people feel like they’re on a knife’s edge. Heck, even the No Kings protests are on weekends because they know people won’t participate on work days.</p><p>But getting everyone to say, “Hey, credit scores are bullshit, and we’re all fucking sick of the way the financial class has enabled fascism and manipulated us on a national scale, so we’re *all* defaulting on our unsecured debt at once?” *That* could work, plus it would actually materially benefit much of the populace.</p><p><a href="https://retro.pizza/tags/morningthoughts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>morningthoughts</span></a> <a href="https://retro.pizza/tags/generalstrike" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>generalstrike</span></a></p>

MikeDunnAuthor<p>Today in Labor History September 16, 1945: 43,000 oil workers went on strike in 20 states. During WWII, most of the major unions collaborated with the U.S. war effort by enforcing labor “discipline” and preventing strikes. In exchange, the U.S. government supported closed shop policies under which employers at unionized companies agreed to hire only union members. While the closed shop gave unions more power within a particular company, the no-strike policy made that power virtually meaningless. When the war ended, inflation soared and veterans flooded the labor market. As a result, frustrated workers began a series of wildcat strikes. Many grew into national, union-supported strikes. In November 1945, 225,000 UAW members went on strike. In January 1946, 174,000 electric workers struck. That same month, 750,000 steel workers joined them. Then, in April, the coal strike began. 250,000 railroad workers struck in May. In total, 4.3 million workers went on strike. It was the closest the U.S. came to a national General Strike in the 20th century. And in December 1946, Oakland, California did have a General Strike, the last in U.S. history. Overall, it was the largest strike wave in U.S. history. In 1947, Congress responded to the strike wave by enacting the Taft-Hartley Act, restricting the powers and activities of labor unions and banning the General Strike. The act is still in force today and one the main reasons there hasn’t been a General Strike in the U.S. since 1945.</p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>workingclass</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LaborHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LaborHistory</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/GeneralStrike" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GeneralStrike</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/oakland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>oakland</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/oilworkers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>oilworkers</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/union" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>union</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/strike" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>strike</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/strikewave" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>strikewave</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/worldwartwo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>worldwartwo</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/tafthartley" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>tafthartley</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/uaw" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>uaw</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/coal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>coal</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/railroads" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>railroads</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/inflation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>inflation</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/steel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>steel</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/wildcat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>wildcat</span></a></p>
