Lin Wood is very busy these days, giving MAGA world instructions on how to be. That’s in order since he is a bit of a luminary in that universe, but the problem is that none of his instructions make too much sense, even to other MAGAs. Yesterday Wood told MAGAs that they needed to stop shopping for food at Walmart and shine on Amazon, because these big corporate conglomerates are out to swallow the little guy up — not to mention that the food is poisoned. Today Wood is announcing that not only should you not shop at Walmart, if you listen to him, you won’t be able to shop there — or anywhere else, because you’re not going to have any money.
Wood wants you to quit your job and then, hilariously, sell your stocks. Ummm….Lin? Could we talk a moment? Only half the country even owns any stocks and it’s not the half you’re talking to. You’re talking to the food stamps and Medicaid crowd — not that I diss them for that, merely saying they’re a different group from the ones who read the Wall Street Journal every morning.
In any case, these are Wood’s Six Commandments. Maybe he’s going to come up with another four and carve them in stone, but here’s what we’ve got for now. Number one is “Quit Your Job,” or perhaps it should be “Thou Shalt Not Work.”
Strike Back For Freedom!!! This sounds a lot like that whacky Lt. Colonel in the Marines, Stuart Scheller, who has managed to destroy his entire life in a week’s time, with a single, ill advised video, telling his superiors how they botched the Afghanistan withdrawal. What is the “freedom” these people seek? As Janice Joplin so correctly observed, “freedom’s just another word for nothing left to lose.” So you quit your job, but Lin Wood wants you to use cash? What cash? Oh, excuse me, the cash from selling your stocks. What if you don’t have any stocks? Well, uh….dunno about that one.
I marvel at this admonition to sell one’s stocks. I thought Wood was out of it before, but this is a new level of delusional that I didn’t see coming at all. “Go to cash” is a great idea. Certainly saves hefty credit card interest. How it’s possible without an income beats the hell out of me.

That does not bode well for September 11. And September 18 is the date for the Justice For J6 rally at the Capitol. This is the 20th anniversary of the 9/11 attack and it’s going to be commemorated by striking MAGAs?
This is off the website.
What could Airbnb have possibly done to the MAGAs? I guess we’ll find out. Remember how their boycott of Starbucks was going to wipe out that company? Looks like it’s still in process, or at least it’s still on the drawing board.
So they’re advocating ‘cancel culture’ ?
It’s chilling to see how freely they use the word, “enemy,” without actually defining it. Just like right-leaning media (lookin’ at you, Faux “News”) use the undefined “they.” It’s implied that Democrats are the enemy, but any viewer can fill in their own personal bogeyman.
Personally, I think that’s just rude. I mean, I have no problem telling these louts that they are my blood enemies, always have been and how I am looking forward to them being ground into dust by the unpersuadable march of time and rot. If you’re going to hate on somebody, you owe your opponents at least THAT much honesty.
I bet all those companies are surprised to learn they’re “left-wing”.
Someone needs to haul Wood in NOW and lock him up for mental-health evaluation.
Right? I thought we were boycotting some of those companies because of their support for tRump and right-wing causes. Now I’m confused! Someone needs to come pick this guy up and haul him off to a padded facility, and soon please!
I can just imagine the reactions at red-state unemployment offices (especially in the “right-to-work” and “at-will employment” states) when these MAGAts show up saying they were fired for threatening to strike.
And it’s so funny that the companies in the graphic are described as “left-wing” when quite a few of them go out of their way to prevent their workers from unionizing (I’m looking at you, Walmart and Amazon).
But, one thing I don’t get about this “manifesto” that Wood’s proposing: How the hell will he–or any of the other grifters–make all their money if their sheep/victims/supporters have no way to get money to them? I mean, sure–they can always mail in cash (though the Postal Service STRONGLY discourages it*) but you can’t very well fleece your supporters with your online contribution scams if they have no bank account or credit card number from which you can take their “regular monthly contribution.” We’ve read the horror stories of people who’ve had their bank accounts and credit cards charged every month by these grifters after they’ve (usually) unknowingly failed to read the “fine print.”
*As a postal employee, I can personally attest to seeing hundreds of dollars in cash getting separated from the letters and cards they were sent with because the envelopes don’t survive the machine sorting process–and that’s not even taking weather-related issues into account. The greeting card industry’s insistence on using recycled paper for their envelopes certainly hasn’t helped things (it often takes four to six envelopes to have the same weight as a single card; at one time, the envelope was as thick as the card itself). But, the Postal Service also relies on a collection process that exposes a lot of mail to the elements and exposure to rain (and snow, to a lesser extent) leads to the possibility of wet mail and those recycled envelopes do NOT like getting wet and there is very little personal handling and sorting of mail nowadays so wet mail (unless there’s just a whole lot of it, in which case it’s separated out so it can dry out) will usually wind up through the system till it hits the machines that sort the mail through all levels, and those machines have all sorts of belts and turns and spring-operated diverter gates (running anywhere from 10 to 50 pieces of mail per SECOND) so the least little problem with an envelope–unsealed flap, bent or snagged corner, too thick because of coins and small pencils!–can lead to the envelope getting stuck and torn and the contents strewn in the machine.
“Walk off the job even under threat of being fired.”
Sounds like a problem that’s going to take care of itself, if you ask me.
Lin Wood can’t run a law practice. What makes anyone believe he knows how to run a revolution!
Yes, please register your seditious self on the StrikeBack website! Please make it easier for the feds to track you down.
As Matt Gaetz has proven, all Wood needs to do is use Venmo and the Feds will know everything.
