It’s a serious question because the president is elected so it’s not just “hey you need to step down”.
- Definitely Musk shouldn’t be a part of things.
- Definitely the courts should be listened to (but what that means as a demand I don’t really understand)
- Definitely reign in the presidential orders, reduce their scope or number or SOMETHING
I mean, I’m not the guy to do this. But what exactly kind of things could be done to control this crazy ass situation?
EDIT: I’m taking about how we can restore and reform the United States, not visions for a new entity.
A general strike isn’t the end goal - it’s just one tool in a larger movement for a fairer society. Without deep structural change, any victory will be temporary, and moderates will be swept aside just like in the Russian Revolution.
The real fight is against a system that: • Turns housing into feudal lodgings • Keeps workers powerless through debt, low wages, and job insecurity • Uses healthcare as a profit engine instead of public infrastructure • Pushes every aspect of life toward privatization and financialization
A successful movement won’t just demand small fixes - it will challenge the entire system that allows exploitation to continue.
Okay and I’m trying not to be contentious here but the question itself was if we have a general strike and it’s successful what will be the demands?
This was not a general question about what is needed in the USA. It was a specific question about the end goal that a general strike would have.
I was asking people to answer that question.
