Its simple if you have to go to school you dont go.

I meant how is not going to school a protest exactly? They're already dismantling education, this kinda plays to their favor. Not buying anything and messing with the economy makes sense, but avoiding school shouldn't bother them in the least.

Unless I'm missing something else, which is what I was trying to get at.

Its a total blackout day. If your kid doesnt go to school and pay for the Cisco shitlunch then this also takes a stab at the economy. Its less useful as the rest unless you are in college. But what it really demonstrates is WE have the power. WE can stop everything, not you, Mr President. Its a power play relying on unity and cooperation.

Sounds more like a pack your own lunch kinda thing.

I get the sentiment tho.

Sure, or you could deprive every physical location of the bodies that give them purpose.
