I mean you can support striking workers in other of ways that doesn’t invoke going to the actual picket.

You literally said everyone should join the picket line….

I’m going to assume that was hyperbole lol

If you could, sure, I think you should do it. If not, I think people should support the people in their community who strike in other ways like spreading awareness, maybe donating to a strike fund, honking a horn when you go by, something, anything. Working people in this country are fucked in so many ways, we all need to support each other because it seems like each other is all we really have.

Yes and then they said there are other ways to support a picket line. You're allowed to say multiple things, crazy I know. Saying I want a million dollars, and then later saying I want a yacht, doesn't mean I no longer want the million dollars. I wish people would get off of the "AHA BUT YOU SAID A DIFFERENT THING AFTERWARDS, SO IT CANCELS OUT 🤓" mindset. Also, saying everyone should join a picket line is obvious hyperbole, its something you would've learned about in middle school. They're obviously showing support for the strikers and encouraging other people to show support. If I have a bad day at work, and say "I wish everyone would leave me alone", doesn't mean I want everyone in the world to magically stop interacting with me. Do better
