10 ways to aid the Resistance in Trump’s America
After one of the most turbulent weeks in American history, this morning I read an Op-Ed by Nicholas Kristoff titled ‘A 12-Step Program for Responding to President-Elect Trump.’ It read to me as exemplary of the well-intentioned but impotent liberal political thinking that frankly has lead us to this terrible situation in the first place. To repeat the world’s most tired and overused cliché, repeating the same actions and expecting different results is the definition of insanity.

How to Protest if You're Socially Anxious

General Strike Jan 20 2017

[sasha_feather]

General, nation-wide (US*) strike on 20th January, 2017, anti-inauguration day
*other countries / people welcome to participate

Don't go to work or school
Don't patronize businesses (try to plan ahead if you need to buy things)
Go to a protest event if you are able

From the facebook group:
The logic of the general strike is simple. On January 20th, 2017, each and every one of us refuses to comply with whatever orders the economic establishment has given to us. We walk out of our homes, our places of work, and our schools, and we join our fellow citizens in the streets and online in a peaceful display of resistance and solidarity. In this way, we defy the establishment. As Mario Savio said during the 1960s student protests:

"There’s a time when the operation of the machine becomes so odious, makes you so sick at heart, that you can’t take part! You can’t even passively take part! And you’ve got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels, upon the levers and upon all the apparatus, and you’ve got to make it stop! And you’ve got to indicate to the people who run it, to the people who own it, that unless you’re free, the machine will be prevented from working at all!"
