In 1973, hundreds of thousands of women took to the street to protest dramatic increases in the cost of meat. Grocery prices are growing at a much faster rate than they were 50 years ago. Why don’t we do the same?

    Bruh…

    You never heard of scabs before?

    A strike is personal pain for group gain. And doesn’t work when enough individuals choose to work without what the strike is trying to get…

    Like, youre completely backwards on this…

      Yes, but hyper localised. You’re fighting for your own personal, collective benefit. Not the greater good of society at large.

      Scabs being a thing of the past is true, but they used to be protested and vilified, and actually have to cross a picket line.
