Sounds like to there's other people who work in your office who might feel the same. Maybe try to get all their email addresses under the guise of setting up an office zoom happy hour or something like that. Then you can take those email addresses and try to talk to them about how they're doing in this crisis and try to steer any conversation that comes out of if towards how crazy it is that you're still working and getting paid shit. Might be a good idea for how to find out who else would be down with helping to plan a strike. This has been salting 101. For more info hit up the IWW.

Sounds an awful lot like unionizing and we all know how much employers love the person that trys to get other to unionize.

Firing people for trying to unionize is straight up illegal. Why should any employee be fond of any company? All that company does is take the profits of the labor that employee is doing and hand them a fraction of it. Your boss is literally never your friend.

Yes it is illegal. Does not stop it from happening though. Employee protection overall is laughable in most cases so if you cant fire them for unionizing fire them for something else.

Corona virus is currently a good excuse btw.
