Liberals laid the groundwork to prevent Trump from doing far worse. Without courts and checks and balances, Trump would never have left power after 2016 and women, trans people, and minorities would all be literal slaves.
I agree a general strike will do far more than voting, but don’t lose the plot of what’s realistic and possible in pursuit of your idealism. It’s a problem of scale. A general strike is many orders of magnitude more difficult than winning an election.
I’ll be there to strike when the general strike is supposed to happen, but until the general strike happens, if it ever happens, you calling for a general strike does zero material good.
