No Mercy / No Malice: Resist and Unsubscribe

I'm Sky Galloway, and this is No Mercy No Malice. The deaths of two Americans in Minnesota has sparked outrage across the country. However, this administration doesn't respond to protests. It doesn't respond to citizenry. It doesn't respond to Congress or the Supreme Court. It responds to markets. A national economic strike for the month of February is the best weapon we have to counter the government's occupation of our cities and its assault on our values. Resist and unsubscribe as read by George Hahn. Don Lemon, the former CNN anchor, was arrested today. Targeting journalists is not about enforcing the law, but shaping reality. History reflects a brutal truth. When you begin arresting journalists, your nation becomes angrier and poorer. After the killings of Alex Preddy and Renee Goode, many people feel powerless. Praised by tech CEOs, surrounded by sycophants, emboldened by multimillion dollar settlements, and enriched by his return to the White House, Trump marches on unchecked. Americans, however, have overlooked a potent weapon of resistance. First, we should recognize that the president is unfazed by outrage and unmoved by protests. What does he care about? A, the markets. The best strategy is to opt out. We're asking you to join a month long national economic strike, a coordinated campaign that targets tech and AI companies and inflicts maximum damage with minimum impact on consumers. Protesters are playing a critical role in challenging Trump's war on the enemy within and documenting the activities of his masked, heavily armed, and poorly trained paramilitary force. But until the Republicans lose their grip on Washington and the president's acolytes can be held accountable and, in some cases, put on trial, the opposition needs bold new methods. We're not talking about a labor strike. It's easy for me to tell other people to stop working and take the risk of getting fired. That kind of walkout would only hurt small businesses and probably lead to more job losses. We're also not urging local businesses to sacrifice sales and close their doors for a day, a symbolic but ultimately ineffective tool. We're proposing something quieter and less cinematic than a protest that will run all day on cable TV, but much more disturbing to the Trump administration. A one day slowdown is irritating. A one month slump is terrifying. With support for abolishing ICE growing and a bipartisan backlash prompting Trump to at least feign a more conciliatory approach in Minnesota, this is the moment to exert pressure. If you need inspiration before joining the movement, look at photos from the September meeting at which tech industry CEOs, including OpenAI's Sam Altman and Apple's Tim Cook, took turns fawning over the president. These are the leaders who have his ear. A modest reduction in their company's growth could have a substantial impact on valuations priced to perfection. Small changes in consumer behavior, starting on the February, could have an enormous ripple effect, one that extends all the way to the White House. We …
