A civil war has begun. Red states are sending troops to blue states. We need national strikes and boycotts ASAP. Where are the unions? The leaders? Anyone know how we can help make this happen? (r.50501.chat)

We didn't defeat the Nazis the first time with strikes and boycotts. Don't get me wrong - do those things. But also get armed if you can. Guerrilla tactics will go a long way toward opposing a hostile government takeover.
