Problem with threading and multiprocessing in python, how to use?

Question

Python

There is a ready-made code that launches the command line and performs operations, logging them along the way. I'm trying to set up threading python for faster and more optimized work, but when I specify a parameter, nothing changes. Code attached. Can tell you what parameters to prescribe.

import threading
from multiprocessing.pool import ThreadPool as Pool
import argparse
import requests
import os

parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
parser.add_argument(
    "-t",
    "--threads",
    help="amount of threads (default: 1000)",
    type=int,
    default=100,
)

args = parser.parse_args()

lock = threading.Lock()

def main():
    with lock:
       .......

if __name__ == "__main__":
    if not getInternet():
        print(bcolors.RED + "No internet connection")
    makeDir()
    threads = args.threads
    pool = Pool(threads)
    for _ in range(10):
        pool.apply_async(main)
    pool.close()
    pool.join()
