To the people thinking that this won't change anything, govs and corps simply don't care about us, I reply: yes, this won't change anything in the immediate, in the current governments: but that's the nice thing about democracy, governments change.

Maybe the strikes won't change a lot, but the media and social coverage will raise awareness to the issue, which will, in turn, convince more people to vote for parties that will actually do somemething about the issue (which, I think, is the main reason why the strikes are so close to the European elections).

I know they convinced me, I hope I can do the same for you.
