We Should All Ditch Work and Go on Strike for the Climate
All workers in all industries stopping work at the exact same time? It’s exactly what the planet needs.
Remember the IPCC report which gave us 12 years to sort our shit out? Well, now, we’ve got 11 and a half. That’s why Greta Thunberg and 46 other young activists have called for a general strike against climate change this September:
“We have learned that if we don’t start acting for our future, nobody else will make the first move. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for,†they wrote in the Guardian. “But to change everything, we need everyone. It is time for all of us to unleash mass resistance…â€
School strikes are one thing. They’ve been responsible for putting immediate action to prevent climate change onto the agenda and further radicalising a generation. But a general strike is a big escalation. It involves all workers in all industries stopping work at the same time. At the start of the 20th century, when workers were just figuring out how to use a general strike, socialist leader Rosa Luxemburg argued that it was “the living pulse of the revolution, and at the same time its most powerful driving wheelâ€.
Good luck making this happen.
If workers are a bit smart about things, and say that they’re refusing to work because of the serious and imminent threat that climate change poses to their health and safety, that might give them some legal cover and further reduce the likelihood of reprisal. But there’s a big difference between a hypothetical general strike and an actual general strike. At the moment, no one seems to have agreed on a definite plan of how to get from A to B. We could end up thinking that 2019 was just a missed opportunity, just like 1926.
And then those workers get replaced with people who want to do their jobs, not be SJWs.
Of course, if these Warmists did go on strike the workplace would probably have a better environment, since everyone else wouldn’t have to listen to the insane ramblings of unhinged wankers. But, really, think about your own workplace: how many people do you think would walk out and how many would be wave their hand dismissively and get back to work?
That’s the thing about activists. They have never had a real job so they don’t understand that people willingly do their jobs so that they can get paid. No work = no pay. It’s like a one-to-one relationship. The exact opposite of being an activist where you get paid just for complaining about how people don’t understand how serious your activism is.
TEACH: “And then those workers get replaced with people who want to do their jobs, not be SJWs.”
And where will the nation get millions of skilled workers on short notice? Immigrants!!
No, there are no skilled workers among the illegals. They’re just a bunch of Indians straight from the jungle who don’t even know what toothpaste or soap is for.
If you’re talking skilled workers among immigrants, you’re talking white people fleeing the Moslems in Europe.
But Jeffery forgets that Americans are legendary hard workers, happily holding 2 or 3 jobs so they can get ahead.
He also forgets, every day we find out how many administrative jobs can be eliminated, thanks to technology.
Send the Lefties out on the picket lines for a while and let them learn about true social justice.
“And where will the nation get millions of skilled workers on short notice? Immigrants!!”
Not illegal immigrants we won’t. Illegals are a bunch of wetbacks dragging their children through the waters of the Rio Grande to get FREE SHIT FROM TAXPAYERS HANDED OUT BY DEMOCRAT COMMUNISTS TO VOTE FOR THEM. It’s sedition, corruption and slavery pure and simple.
Trump 2020 Stop the DemComs from murdering immigrant children!

Democrats only care about slavery that ended in 1865, not actual modern slavery that is still going on.
