Experienced Organizers?

EDIT: Typo

Hey y'all,

So I just heard about the general October strike around a month ago and was excited for it until I did some digging and found that there were criticisms of the movement for not being thought out enough or for not having given enough time for experienced organizers to prepare.

So my question is: where are the experienced organizers and what are they saying? Is there any chance to get this "train" back on it's intended course? Should we cancel? Does the date need to be reassessed? Are there any specific websites or directories we can reference?

I'm sick of this unnatural way of living via capitalism. We gotta do something about this.

PSA: If you see a "short staffed" or "no one will work" sign ⚠️ DO ⚠️ NOT ⚠️ SHOP ⚠️ THERE ⚠️. 🚫 Do NOT be a scab. 🚫 Do NOT ignore the strike. 🚫 Do NOT cross the ghost picket lines.

October Strike was essentially an op, and COINTELPRO tactics are and were still in use to smother enthusiasm for labor action. Also, the FBI is responsible for TERFs. Unrelated but still related.
