Once unemployment hits critical mass, there's a pull like a siphon. Enough people around to just, always make life hell for those in charge and that usually makes thing change. Then those trapped in employment all go on break at once, adding to the crowds. Happened before, will happen again. Almost happened during covid (thus the push to reopen business). This time we gotta push for a safety net and an end to fascism.

Oh, and since the fascists are in office it will be... bloody. That usually pushes people to act. Just gotta trust those around us. That's why you should go to protests. So you bring it closer to critical mass, the point, in numbers, beyond where the local cops are willing to escalate.
