Letters: Readers respond to an article about quitting the rat race, with some saying their generation was handed an untenable position and others saying the struggle is nothing new
Slightly less obnoxious, but equally ineffective; vote with your hands, your eyes, your feet. Don’t let them steal your labor your attention your time your anything. You can be passive and hold a strike. You van be active and strike back. I think a mix of both would be a lot more effective than just one.
But whatever you do, if its not just useless theatrical bullshit (which isn’t to say all theatrical bullshit is useless; just the useless kinds) its going to be illegal, and will face state retribution, even if its explicitly legal and protected in your local constitution.

You can also strike without striking. There’s a huge fuss over “quiet quitting”/“work to rule”, where people are striking by only doing exactly what they’re paid for, rather than adding in the extra that has become the norm. They’re not adding extra hours or pulling extra duties.

When I say ‘strike back’ the labor actions that come to mind all involve machine guns.
