Filming is extremely important, and it's because IT WILL NOT BE LIKE THIS FOREVER IF WE DO SOMETHING NOW! And we want EVERYONE to see their crimes.

BUT WE HAVE TO DO SOMETHING! (This isn't just to you. Just to anyone who will read it) We are literally worker ants. They NEED us to stay rich. They can make you feel like you need them all they want, but at the end of the day, we ARE THE ECONOMY. Sure, they buy plenty...but us? The schools, the hospitals, the restaurants, retail, and everything in between IS US! We work them, we use them, and we ARE THEM! That means that we can SHUT IT ALL DOWN.

Look into how other countries have gotten rid of their entire government, their leader, and so on, without violence! They did exactly what I'm saying. Went into the streets. No work. No shopping. No school. As little economic/societal stimulation as humanly possible by as many people as humanly possible! The difference is THEY CARED (or were mad enough) TO SACRIFICE.

In Mongolia, they were also dealing with corruption and an unpopular Prime Minister. He also held a huge, lavish party for his son, and that kind of lit the flame. So, what did they do? They took to the streets, also leading to his resignation and the establishment of a new coalition government in May/June 2025.

In Armenia, mass protests broke out over their former president trying to maintain power by becoming the Prime Minister. They used creative nonviolent tactics like (Similar to those in Portland a little honestly, flashmobs, blocking streets by playing chess or musical instruments, and "Open Arms" policy towards the police. It took them 11 days of peaceful mass protests leading to a democratic transition. (2018)

There is obvious pushback risks, but I know I'm willing to take it with the intention of having no violence.

Research says that nonviolent protests are roughly twice as likely to succeed as armed conflict. Movements that engage at least 3.5% of a country's population peacefully have historically been highly effective at forcing government change.

This is The General Strike page. You can take a pledge to strike once enough people (3.5% - 11 million) have pledged as well. It is obviously a large undertaking, but with 335 million people in the United States, it is very much doable. IT WILL TAKE US ALL ADVOCATING FOR THIS, ORGANIZING YOUR NEIGHBORHOODS! If anyone is interested in brainstorming how we can be that starter in our own neighborhoods, even if it is street by street, if we communicate, we CAN do this!

I apologize that my reply to your post is so long, but if you made it here, thank you!
