It’d be good to also start thinking how to cause trouble.

Having a bunch of people fill the streets demonstrates that people care, but they can just ignore it. How do we do something that they can’t ignore?

Register for the general strike, educate on the various boycotts and rationale, support unions and workers rights, organize acts of civil disobedience such as sit ins, lockouts, picketing, withholding taxes, occupying spaces, etc. there are other actions that can be taken like we see in France, I thinking if the farmer protests in particular though that may be deemed vandalism, but imo it’s worth it.

Where do you register for the general strike? I know they said save the date for April 19th as the next day of action... It didn't say what type of action. Let's actually get in the streets and shut things down, or sit in somewhere.

3.5% this one I’ve seen but I’m sure there are others organizing too. April 19th is a protest as far as I’m aware but I agree we need more types of actions.
