This is why ice is just arresting whomever they feel like and then releasing a couple of weeks later. It's a wealth transfer scheme that of course doesn't bother the Epstein class

    I've been thinking about these 1 day strikes and no shopping days we've been having. The economic blackouts seem to not have much effect, I've seen it compared to a day of bad weather like we recently had with the snow and ice. Likewise, the 1 day strikes aren't achieving an actual loss of revenue that is enough to lead to change. Most Americans can't go on strike long-term as we live paycheck to paycheck, we don't have savings and we don't have mutual aid networks in place. Perhaps doing a nationwide slowdown would be more effective as we would actually be decreasing profits for the rich. It is something that could pick up steam instead of fizzle out. We can combine this with very clear demands instead of a general I don't like this admin vibe

     

    Found this set of first aid manuals for protesters. There is a book as well as a street medic one-page and a field guide. Field guide comes in English and Spanish

    "Riot Medicine is a full-length textbook that covers everything you need to become a medic. The 486 pages include organizing, medcine, equipment, and tactics. It is written for those with no medical training and no experience at protests, but medical practitioners and seasoned protesters will still find it useful."
