>This wasn't a strike, it was a political protest. What's the difference??

  I think we could all agree by calling it a work-stoppage. To me they're basically all the same but a strike is generally a work stoppage intended to force management to in some way improve the employment environment whereas a political protest can and usually is directed outwards and occurs for any number of reasons.

    > a strike is generally a work stoppage intended to force management to in some way This is also a political protest. Just because it's not against the U.S. government doesn't make it less so.

      There's nothing political about a contractual dispute between two private parties.

        Yes, there is.
