And the most important prediction (which you don’t give, but should): less than 0.02 that this will actually happen
That’s an interesting question for sure, I haven’t thought much about it. However, I would argue ‘could something like this be incentivised’, and ‘would strikers have leverage to actually achieve anything’ are separate questions. I’m personally more interested in question two.
Seems like something to consider pretty strongly. Why did you pick youth school disattendance as your subject in the first place? Why not youth housework strike, or daily congregation to disrupt traffic or commerce? Or an adult strike of some sort? Or a mixed-age strategy?
When I read this, I assumed the specificity had some reason behind it. That would be the first part of the question to explain and predict.
Why did you pick youth school disattendance as your subject in the first place?
Because this is already being done, just on a much smaller scale. ‘Fridays for Future’ has that name because some students decided to start taking Fridays off and protest instead.
