So, they want a new country?

I’m all for each of these things, but trying to have them happen all at once is ignorant. Do they think that making all these changes will make people glad? People hate change, and that’s one of the main reasons Trump was elected.

This strike feels like the 2016 election all over again, where left/liberals try to push for too much change and the population recoils into voting for regressive bigots.
