General Strike! Archived Message

If so many people support the idea of the lockdown (ie don't want their mum/kids/self to die), maybe some sort of general strike could happen if/when they start to force more of us to work before it's safe, or just in solidarity with non-key workers who are still being forced to work (even if i thought 'it's just a bit of flu', it's something to support). I'm alright as i get full pay and can work from home (for now). More likely, as we speak the innermost minds of the great unwashed are being massaged with herd immunity-friendly memes, and yet again the 'massess' will clamour for the very thing that's in the narrow interests of the scumbag elite (or whichever oh-so different splinter of it we're talking about now) as if it's a hard won freedom. Though i think they have been trying that all the way through, and it doesn't seem to have gone as well as their previous propaganda - hence why boris dropped the superman bullshit.
