A one man fight is essentially banishment. Too many of our countrymen are brainwashed to believe that working yourself to death is a point of pride, and here we are. Many of us want better for ourselves and especially our kids, but bootlickers keep us all in shit city.
Not only that, the powers that are in control of the country have intentionally limited our ability to collectivize, they have reduced our wages as much as they can to keep us desperate, they have reduced our time off to keep us tired. They do not want us to fight and they have structured it such that we won’t until we are all entirely broken.
Work from home is an issue because we realized we can have lives again, and maybe we could even work less!
But then we have more time to focus on things that matter, like protesting and unionizing.
and ALL media is completely in the bag
You're assuming too much of Americans. We exist in late-stage capitalism and are desperately trying to survive.
it's more of a competition fetish, and disgust for any cooperation
