then you're oddly commenting on a thread about striking.. which is secondary to the important step of building organizations and support structures. Its hard to near impossible for people to strike who depend on that pay check to clear debt, pay rent, etc. Participating in regular organizing events is the right advice, and you got off on the wrong foot asking first for people to strike and only when asked questions you revealed people need to organize. without the proper support structures and alternative means of income in place, it is near impossible to convince people to strike. They need the strike because they don't have financial security to stop obeying their boss. You're ignoring the initial situation. That's creating a perception of you being about only what you think needs to happen without considering others.
Edit: I did not mean YOU specifically asked people to strike first but you get the point. I am reacting to "we need to strike" as a sentence on its own.
you answered to the wrong person.
