A General Strike Farm

I’m thinking about strikes. I’m thinking about sustaining them. I’m thinking about how there’s already an established logistical model for food distribution outside of the capitalist framework (in the form of operations like Food Not Bombs, as the first example that comes to mind) but I’m not aware of anything like that for food production. I’m thinking about how my time in the infantry taught me that supply lines are worthless without supplies.

1. A strike is far more likely to succeed if it’s backed up by a strike fund.

2. A general strike will not have that critical component available if carried out in our current social order.

3. A federation of mutual aid networks can function as a de facto strike fund.

Therefore 4. I need to radicalize and organize with other “small farmers” in my area to lay a foundation for what we called “sustainment of force” operations when I was a grunt.

There’s a lot more to it that I hope to be able to add to this but for now this is a placeholder.
