For the demands of the strikers they could include a time period for example no funding of Republicans until 2034 as an example.

Regarding living paycheck to paycheck that’s why I mentioned the mutual aid network. I know most people can’t stop working for very long, that’s why there would need to be some kind of group to support this.

Regarding labels like socialism or communism, I’m not advocating for that. I just hope for better wages, working conditions and less corruption in politics.

I agree with you. Imagine if people built a mutual aid network designed to sustain people for maybe 6-12 months and the country just went on strike. People stop showing up to work everywhere in protest of the oligarchy.

If Project 2025 becomes a reality we might start seeing headlines which say “In the United States, couples who divorce will be sent to labor camps”.

Here is what I ended up sending to the moderators of politics@lemmy.world. I’m leaving this as a comment because my post is already long enough.

politics@lemmy.world has robust rules to protect the integrity of the community. Looking the most recent posts I didn’t see any links to Murdoch owned websites but in case this ever comes up in the future I wanted to mention I’ve observed that assets owned by Rupert Murdoch would often conflict with the rules of politics@lemmy.world According to Wikipedia "Many of [Rupert] Murdoch’s papers and television channels have been accused of biased and misleading coverage to support his business interests and political allies”. Content like this could be in violation of rule #4 which bans misinformation.

Moreover often times articles on websites such as the New York Post (nypost) and Fox News are nothing more than summaries of articles from other reporters with added bias. A New York Times article (archive link) has mentioned this practice. Rule #2 mentions “Links must be to quality and original content”. If it’s just effectively a summary with added commentary is it really original content?

I see the following possible actions that could be taking on the Politics community.

• The automoderator can reply to any link to a Murdoch owned website and issue a warning. The warning could be something like this:

The following website is owned by Rupert Murdoch. Assets owned by Murdoch have a reputation for bias and misleading coverage to support Murdoch’s business and political interests. Please use caution when reading and sharing the article and seek out more reputable sources. Consider using an adblocker such as uBlock Origin when visiting the link or use the archive link instead of visiting directly.

In the future note that it’s recommended when posting to Politics to use reputable sources. We discourage the linking of this website unless the reporting on the specific article you posted was original and verified.

• People should be encouraged to seek another more reliable source if possible unless the link offers unique and verified reporting.
• People visiting the link should be encouraged to use an adblocker such as uBlock Origin
• Instead of linking directly to the website an archive link should be visited.

Wikipedia has a list of entities that are ultimately owned by Rupert Murdoch:

• https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_assets_owned_by_Fox_Corporation
• https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_assets_owned_by_News_Corp
• https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:News_Corporation_subsidiaries

I hope you will consider taking a stand for journalistic integrity and truth and consider deprioritizing Murdoch owned assets. Thank you so much for your time!

No country is safe from Elon Musk’s election interference. It’s urgent that we boycott Twitter and Tesla. If you have a Twitter account do the following now:

1. Send a DM to your favorite accounts and urge them to stop using Twitter.
2. (If you haven’t already) register for Bluesky.
3. Make a Tweet saying you are no longer using Twitter.
4. Tell your friends to follow the same instructions.

These could take as little as five minutes of your time but it will make a huge difference because of the ripple effect. When one person leaves it will automatically incentivize your friends to follow you. You have the power to make a difference.

This is a lie. People just spread this to trick you into not voting so the Republicans win.

You understand how things work! Ignore the apathy trolls. They are trying to silence your vote. Here’s what actually happens if you vote for the lesser of two evils. You’re rights are protected and next time use the primary process to pick someone even better.

Yes boycott all his companies! Also most important is to urge businesses, government and institutions to boycott his companies. This will have a bigger impact.

According to https://library.ucsd.edu/dc/object/bb0000819h yes it’s real and the year it’s from is 1941 more specifically 1941-07-08. You can view what I think might be all or most of his political cartoons here: https://library.ucsd.edu/dc/collection/bb65202085
