Good work being done by MIRAC, join if you can on Tuesday 8/5 - details in photo

You're fired up, but we haven't called the strike yet...what to do?! Channel that energy toward getting ready by nourishing the connections that will sustain you during a strike, getting the word out, or creating your strike plan - what other ways can you think of? We'd love to hear them!!

Important quote: “they were treating us exactly as they would treat BoP prisoners, and they told us that.” We need prison abolition. Detainment conditions right now aren’t new, they didn’t just appear in November. Activists have been calling for abolition for a long time. And this is why.

We are calling for working people to stay home from work on 8/1 in protest of these horrific attacks and human rights abuses. Confirm your plan to participate in the Anti-ICE sick-out here: cryptpad.fr/form/#/2/for...

There is some chatter about how we shouldn't deter anyone from organizing a general strike. That's 100% true, and we are interested in learning from or collaborating with any other group who is working on making this happen. But there are issues with just setting a (very close) date. 🧵

this is still happening today!! we’ll also have a limited amount of masks since the AQI is so bad

Piling on a man who is screaming for help is unacceptable. Make no mistake that this brutality is not "public safety" as several news outlets are framing it. We can come up with solutions for public safety that don't involve killing people in crisis. Nothing justifies this. Enough is enough.

Sick of ICE? Us too! Let's tell them!

They fear our power because it doesn’t beg it organizes. We don’t strike just to protest, we strike to build the world we deserve. Every step we take, every action we plan, brings us closer to seizing what’s been stolen from the people. Build power. Strike back. #GeneralStrikeUS #Strikeback

This looks like a great combination with La Cultura Del Mundo's August 1 event. Time to get planning! laculturadelmundo.org/la-marcha-de...

Read news, op-eds, and analysis, not AI summaries. Create your own art (even if it's messy) or hire an artist to do it. Do your own homework. Talk to people, not chatbots. Keep your thinking and skills sharp and cherish our messy humanity. That's the new punk rock.

Universal basic resources and universal healthcare are some of our demands. Come on over to the welcome packet and have a gander! drive.proton.me/urls/XRYMYQE...

Strike card update! Within another 2 days or so, we have gotten about 2k new signatures and are closing in on 400k! We need each and every one of you to make this happen! Let’s goooooo!!! #GeneralStrikeUS

Why did you pick the one thing that obviously doesn’t apply to you. Do what you can, is the point. Watch someone’s pet while they protest even. It’s a community pulling together to support each other through this, that’s all.

If you're a member of an organization that wants to get on board, review our open letter. generalstrikeus.com/openletter

Missing from this of crimes is Amazon’s role in Israeli apartheid in occupied Palestine: jacobin.com/2023/08/amaz...

It turns out the secret to wildly successful anti-establishment campaigns is to... Listen. Who do we know in Minnesota doing this or working on it? 👀

we call it MA here, but some people call it MNCare or they just go by the PMAP they have and don’t call it MA at all.

Doing anything July 4th? Here's a way to do something and do something that matters. #July4 #GeneralStrike #SickIn #EconomicBlackout

Seeing some posts referring to Kilmar Abrego Garcia as being "kept safe" in jail. No one is safe in jail, fam. Incarceration strips years off people's lives and manufactures premature death. It's very important to understand this, especially now.

Some trainings to help you feel confident organizing for a general strike ‼️ The outreach teach-in will cover how to represent GSUS in conversations & organizing spaces. Join us on July 3rd at 5pm PST / 8pm EST to learn how to connect with others & grow the movement! meet.jit.si/GSUSOutreach...

tech companies prove time and time again they have little to no understanding of how boots on the ground medical practice and hospital administration actually works, but National Nurses United do and they want absolutely no part of this www.nationalnursesunited.org/press/nation...

Part of resisting fascism is resisting digital surveillance. There are many guides, like this one. EFF also has tools, and Privacy Guides also has tools - @eff.org approaches it like you know almost nothing about technology (it's okay, we all start somewhere!). www.eff.org/pages/survei...

Mutual aid shout out! Thanks @riotousmuse.bsky.social for reposting!

The reinvesting demanded by Defund The Police works to reduce crime. The concern was budgeting that vastly prioritized pumping money into policing with a history of abuse of power. www.mprnews.org/story/2025/0...

⏬ Education is part of organizing. ⏬ Make sure people know about this and the Supreme Court rulings yesterday. Get to know your neighbors.

This is one of a few options - July 1st, there's also the July 4th-6th economic blackout and July 7th #sickday. We encourage you to participate however you can in #solidarity!

👇Please read the whole thread I wanted to share more about what happened in the Supreme Court yesterday. Credit to JC Frias on Instagram. Couldn’t find their BlueSky #generalstrike

They zip-tied disabled people for speaking out against Medicaid cuts. That’s not a glitch, it’s the system working as designed. Our comrades showed courage, and the state responded with fear and violence. Strike Back! Volunteer to prepare your community. #Generalstrikeus

I think it's because I'm older now and also lived through 9/11 in this country but I just find USian Islamophobia extremely pathetic and I think that the Islamophobes are losers, lol. But I imagine younger Muslims are definitely fed up with this current virulent manifestation.

Pride is a great opportunity for this!

Looking for a way to resist in Minnesota the weekend of July 4th? In partnership with @mn50501.bsky.social we're doing an economic blackout and sick-in! #July4Blackout #GeneralStrike #Resist

NYC got it done. We can do it in Minneapolis and everywhere else - by organizing, having each other's backs as neighbors, and yes, biking together. We can beat the rich haters.

Dear young people, you are allowed to enjoy when horrible people lose for at least a few hours. Revel in it. Tomorrow is soon enough to start picking everything apart. lol.

As we watch to see what happens in New York City, a reminder: Rank folks that aren't rich sex pests and care about making things better for all - not other rich people. In short, if you're in New York City, go vote and:

The idea of going after 'gangs' and 'criminals' is propaganda designed to divide. The solution is coming together in unity - networking with one another to find a better path. That's most of what #GeneralStrike is about.

Remember when people were saying: “the courts are the last line of defense!” There was never a long-term line of defense. With the Supreme Court compromised, and we know that it is, major decisions like this will continue to happen. If you aren’t preparing for a general strike, start now.

We can't give up. We must use the skills we have in our communities to network and make a difference, from mutual aid, sewing, food, digital skills, writing, creating, and more - you have a skill that can be useful to resisting fascism.

We are posting this placard at all of our offices and asking our union contract farms to post as well. We encourage our friends to put up similar placards at their business as immigration agents do not have the right to go on private property without permission.

We've gone through THIRTY FIVE cases of Gatorade in 2 days, wow. It adds up! So grateful we have so many hands to come schlep for justice ❤️

Feeling overwhelmed at the lawlessness? Get involved locally. Concrete, real-world resistance to fascism in your own community is better for you than doomscrolling.

We are working on organizing a general strike :) The goal is that everyone will get connected and involved in their regional, state and/or local chapter. As chapters become more robust and built up, they finally have enough people to begin engaging in mutual aid.
