On March 15th, 2025, the working class of the United States will cease to serve the capitalist ruling class. We will continue this shutdown until the demands of the people are met.

The Shutdown315 Movement started as a small group of individuals on a Signal group chat on the eve of January 18th, 2025; in the moments before Tiktok went dark. Since then it has grown into a decentralized national movement across the US, with some people requesting for the movement to go global. We have no formal leadership structure. We have participating people who are ambitious and ready to do what it takes to take care of their fellow Americans. We have individuals who step up and take action to meet the demands of the movement and our immediate communities. This movement soley relies on the direct action of all it’s participants.

A study of 323 uprisings against repressive regimes yields stunning insights.

•No democracy movement has ever failed when it was able to mobilize at least 3.5 percent of the population to protest over a sustained period

•At that scale, most soldiers have no desire to suppress protesters. Why? Because the crowd includes their family members, friends, coworkers, and neighbors.

•With a population of 327 million, the U.S. would need to mobilize about 11.5 million people to assert popular, democratic power on the government. Could that happen?

Here's the deal:

Border Patrol can verify citizenship within 100 miles of a border or "external boundary." This includes coastlines, so NYC, Philadelphia, and all of NJ are within the 100-mile zone.

Border patrol can only ask brief questions about citizenship, and they cannot hold you for an extended time without cause.

You always have the right to remain silent. You do not need to answer their questions.

A declassified World War II-era government guide to “simple sabotage” is currently one of the most popular open source books on the internet. The book, called “Simple Sabotage Field Manual,” was declassified in 2008 by the CIA and “describes ways to train normal people to be purposefully annoying telephone operators, dysfunctional train conductors, befuddling middle managers, blundering factory workers, unruly movie theater patrons, and so on. In other words, teaching people to do their jobs badly.” 

The guide’s intro was written by William “Wild Bill” Donovan, who was the head of the Office of Strategic Services during World War II, which later inspired the creation of the CIA. The motivating factor for writing the guide, according to a passage within it, is that citizen saboteurs were highly effective at resisting the Nazis during World War II, and the Office of Strategic Services wanted to detail other ways sabotage could be done:

Over the last week, the guide has surged to become the 5th-most-accessed book on Project Gutenberg, an open source repository of free and public domain ebooks. It is also the fifth most popular ebook on the site over the last 30 days, having been accessed nearly 60,000 times over the last month (just behind Romeo and Juliet).
