      As an individual and as a group.

      1. Join A Union - if you are on a salary of any level, join a union. Unions are a force for equalisation of power, a proper seat at the negotiating table and a “third space” of discussion of grievances, finding common ground, resolving worries and deciding on action.

      2. Involvement in local politics, local becomes state, becomes national.

      3. Until, public holiday, mandatory, and ranked choice voting is introduced (if ever), after you advocated for as much change as possible, you voted for the best candidate in the primaries, vote for the candidate that has a chance of winning. Not voting or protest voting does worse than fuck all.

      4. Do not give up on set backs. Get involved. Demand better.

        Actually, I’m kinda doing all of that. One exception: I’m looking into how to CREATE a union. It’s a little daunting but I persist.

        Excellent advice in general, friend.
