If you live in the U.S.A., (and Canada, apparently), you might not know why the first of May called Labour Day in some parts of the world, or why it’s not called that in those two countries.

Fortunately, Thoughtslime is here with an important – and very relevant – history lesson, and a bit of info about the movement for a general strike.

You should watch this video, check out the sources in its description, and consider supporting Thoughtslime on Patreon.

Unfortunately, life costs money, and my income from this blog has yet to meet minimum wage for the time I put into it. If you can afford to, please consider pledging a couple dollars per month or so through my Patreon. This will help me continue creating and improving this blog by keeping a roof over my head, and food in my carnivorous pets so they don’t eat me. Crowdfunding requires a crowd, so if you can pitch in a little, it would help a great deal!
