I think it's time to go back to the old ways of striking, back when workers would take up arms against the company and get in shootouts with private security. If they don't want to play by the rules they made as a way to get workers to not take up arms, then what is stopping us from just not playing by the rules either?
Exactly. “Rules” only exist for the working people. The rich have never had any rules, so they’ve kept taking more and more, and now it’s feeling pretty brink-y out there. There is more power in a general strike, but we can’t even get half the country to agree what the ocean is called anymore, so smaller scale guerilla tactics may prove more effective leverage.
Difference is the police now have modern military equipment, from mass surveillance to literal tanks. General strike is the answer. My last union agreed to never strike.
You forget, the police are cowards. Remember Uvadale Texas? One man with a gun and none of them would even get close. Now imagine 100 men with guns, the cops won't even bother to show up.
