Antiwork

We recently got new management, I’ve been with this company for 3 years next week. I have never been in any sort of trouble until last month. Since then I’ve been written up three times over nothing. I was in management at a healthcare facility, part of my job is to adjust my own hours to ensure that my responsibilities are taken care of.

In a completely hypothetical example, say we managed to secure solidarity across the working class to all strike at once… what if, instead of gathering to protest, everyone just stayed home? There wouldn't be riot police showing up to mass protests to arrest and beat the hell out of people to strongarm/scare everyone back to work, so what real consequences are there that don't already exist with…
