At least 13 people were injured, five critically in two separate mass shootings at homeless encampments in Minneapolis, Minnesota on Monday. The first shooting took place at East Lake Street and Interstate 35W around 11am local time.

      So how do we stop them? Law’s not gonna do shit, but fox news did incite multiple mass murders here. What kind of consequences can be applied?

          So, like, anything between a gently worded letter that never quite asks explicitly but strongly implies what you’d like and full on accellerationist posadism?

          So, a ‘strike’ has come to mean ‘work stoppage’

          And historically that has been the most mild of its possible meanings.

          Sabotage of machinery and doing work as normal but dividing the product up among workers or giving it out for free, lying to suppliers, and all sorts of more aggressive tactics have traditionally been included in what that word meant. A lot of that doesn’t take a lot of people.

            Yes. Also back in the day there was no fast food or Starbucks. No Amazon. No Walmart.

            The Machine has changed.

            Congress won’t shut it down. The workers can shut it down. If we want to fix the machine we have to shut it down and fix the Republican sabotage first.

            Protests warn people there is a problem. Protests can be ignored. People not getting their fast food can’t be ignored. Daily inconvenience can’t be ignored.

            Just look at all the panic work from home caused or when road transport of goods was slowed down.

            Rich people pay attention to their money and the average person will pay attention when they can’t get a cheese burger or latte.

            Remember what happened when Trump forced China to hit the off button on rare earth metals that are required to keep modern society above complete and sudden collapse?
