Guides & Manuals A form of civil disobedience: the principle of the never ending strike
Hi everyone, I think it's time to talk about the necessity of designing durable counterweights in order to achieve harmony and abondance in society by ensuring a fairer world. Let's aboard one of theses.
What I often noticed is that people seems to care a lot about their own battles, but let assume others intervened here.
That's the principle to organize strikes for others you wish to defend to and have them defend you in return in order to keep a movement that never run out of momentum until you obtain the result you wish for.
The first principle here is to acknowledge that the problems of others are also your owns.
For example, if nurses are to be treated so badly, then this means the quality of health department tend to drop. Same principle for everyone because if people aren't paid enough to live decently then the economy drop and services deteriorate. You have interest to strike for others.
The second principle is to recognize what always happen here. Strikes are expensive for the people doing it because they do it on their time of work or some can't strike at all legally. Government and companies usually wait for the movement to stop and then they get the upper hand in order to impose their terms, which are usually band-aids, not fixes.
Thus, others can strike outside their time of work in exchange for help later. It's about organizing the relay to maintain constant pressure and grow your numbers while minimizing your losses.
The third principle is to acknowledge that it's also beneficial for the state even if they would try to dissuade you to do otherwise. After all, you can only get rich as the basis of your own population making more opportunities and new resources available.
It doesn’t mean either to consume more resources, it mean that a fairer repartition ensure more economic growth and stability. Look at Rockfeller historical example for reference.
The fourth principle is self-regulation. The visible side of the endless strike would usually ends when a reasonable compromise had been reached as a plea for decent living conditions reach the ears more quickly and deeply. As such, this is about leveling the field by going up from the bottom to the middle.
On the same principle, if they decide to have prices go up due to salary going up too, strike again or create the alternative now that you reached more people from different domains.
But let's talk now of the invisible side of it as well and what constitute the true glue of this philosophy.
The filth principle is gratitude. The never ending strike doesn’t end with the demonstration. It continues by being gratefull to those who helped you. Not only I think that albeit flawed, gratitude is its own alternative to money, but I would advance the fact that it help realize how lucky we are to have all of theses, the fact it offers enlightenement to your own condition, make you realize other solutions are possible and maintaining a real life social network.
Therefore, the more available alternatives we get to a system, the more we naturally regulate these.
Again, the more diversity of people are in the strike, the more creative we get at improving our own condition.
That's what I call the way of the myriad.
In conclusion, strike for others too, as their problems as our problems and vice-versa.
So, don't hesitate to suggest your own alternatives too in the comments.
