This is all great but what does this really do everybody keeps demonstrating and protesting and we still every day lose more and more and more so what does this really do we need our White House back go to the White House steps and take back our white house that would be doing something

One day makes an impact but not change World history shows peaceful protest works if it is massive & SUSTAINED Day after day after day It’ll be difficult & personally costly but not as costly as life under fascism. If you can, just don’t shop (except local/as little as possible) for all of May

If only people of the United States would do this EVERY DAY the world would certainly be a somewhat better place. But here we are, once every few months white people (still majority electorate) comes out of their comfortable lives to stand up for the rest of us. Ty🙏 ty, God bless the white people

New Deal 2.0 Universal basic income, universal healthcare, education, corporations and wealth paying their fair share of the tax burden to include paying down the National Debt their abuses of power created. Paying to rebuild the infrastructure they allowed to decay. Eliminate corporate personhood.

Question from my adult, employed kid: is taking PTO cheating on the day of disruption? Or must he walk out for maximum impact? He's an engineer in a factory.

Taking PTO is fine and helpful! It slows down business and helps make the point that everyday people are the ones who actually make everything run in this country, and we’re sick of this regime of bullies bought by billionaires.

I’m a teacher. If I called out, I wouldn’t see the students perform in the play that many have been working hard on. Call out and let my students down? Or go to work but don’t buy anything and wear a support slogan? Kids need support, too, so I know where I will be.

I think one day if done by millions of people not buying anything and disrupting the oligarchs money making will hint at what is possible in the future. Never been tried in USA on this scale. Nonviolent stoppage is the next escalation. We are doing it on May Day for the working class.

Hmm, to the naysayers, the #PowerOfThePeople definitely works. I have observed over the last year how peaceful protests and boycotts have help, I.e., Kimmel back on air, stop purchase of ICE warehouses, pressure on ICE Agents, crashed Tesla, #EpsteinFiles being released. #KeepUpThePressure

MAKE THE DEPRAVED BILLIONAIRES FEEL YOUR POWER! It's more clear than ever that we have a sociopathic billionaire class who have entirely too much power, $$$ and zero respect for human dignity. THE TIME IS NOW! THE PEOPLE ARE FED UP AND READY! RISE UP! GET LOUD! FIGHT BACK!

If you must work, for fear of repercussions, then work. It is for the rest of us to not shop, in person or online, not eat out or order delivery. Do not spend a dime. Do not be tempted by “one day only sales”. Make employers pay staff they are requiring to work. If no customers, no profit.

I will be striking on May 1st. Shut it all down! Screeching haul to the American economy. We have to show corporations it's not profitable to work against the best interests of American people. No one work! No one shop! No one buy gas! Let's show them our voices and choices count!

Well-said Hope!!! The point of electing the RIGHT people is that they'll use our tax dollars to actually support WE, THE PEOPLE. Not the fucking 1%!! Eat a tax loophole today!! VOTE LIKE OUR LIVES DEPEND ON IT!

Congress is simply too corrupt to protect us.

Enough! Congress is simply too corrupt to protect us. We are not a democracy We are not a republic We are not practicing capitalism Congress did it Who in Congress can show us their books and who needs the right to remain silent? Jail the criminals Thank the rest Fix the bugs Replace them all

Anybody remember “Hands Across America”? If you don’t, Google “Charity fatigue”. 😂 (Hint: Hands Across America never quite generated as much mania in the 80’s as USA For Africa, namely because most of the public saw it as a big fat commercialized marketing stunt cashing in on better causes.)

HELL YEAH FUCK TRUMP AND HIS ENTIRE RETARDED ADMINISTRATION. DO NOT WORK DO NOT GO TO SCHOOL DO NOT SHOP no amazon no walmart no microsoft no meta no stock market MAKE THE BILLIONAIRES FEEL YOUR PAIN AS WELL PUT BARRON IN A UNIFORM & GET HIS ASS ON THE FRONT LINE.

Americans could learn a few things from Georgians (the country, not the state) about how to protest.

A large crowd as always at the weekly march in Tbilisi. Georgians have been protesting in 8+ cities every day for the last 507 days.

Keep going Americans. It's hard it's a slog but protest needs consistency commitment and patience. You are getting there the pressure is real and you are affecting what they do in response. If you do get pissed off from trying you do all have guns I believe. Resist it isn't futile

I already boycott target, Home Depot And some larger corporations. But people,ask yourself if you are happy with this country and its president. It’s time it’s past time. Trump must go, the whole administration must go. ALL THE DAMN SPINELESS GOP MUST BE VOTED OUT. It’s time
