Work Reform

A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.
Our Philosophies:
- All workers must be paid a living wage for their labor.
- Income inequality is the main cause of lower living standards.
- Workers must join together and fight back for what is rightfully theirs.
- We must not be divided and conquered. Workers gain the most when they focus on unifying issues.
Our Goals
- Higher wages for underpaid workers.
- Better worker representation, including but not limited to unions.
- Better and fewer working hours.
- Stimulating a massive wave of worker organizing in the United States and beyond.
- Organizing and supporting political causes and campaigns that put workers first.

Look, I get it. Jeff Bezos will keep hoarding. That makes sense in that selfish, nihilist worldview. What I can't understand, is why all fucking people are voting against their own fucking self interests to allow this bullshit. If people didn't just vote against their fucking better interests we would be in a much better situation.
thats because people are temporarily embarrased billionaires thats why.
because voting is not issue based, in the US. it’s “sports team” based, us vs them, etc. it is nothing but distractions while capitalists keep getting richer.
Red-staters seem perfectly fine with punching themselves in the face if it means they can stumble back and bloody the noses of the durn libburuls standing behind them.
If leftists didn't refuse to vote "on principle" we would be in a much better situation.
Yes Amazon didn't exist before Trump and they didn't pay the other side of your duopoly.

If americans weren't such losers endlessly voting for one of those you would be in a much better situation.
But I see you're another one of those campist clowns.
You're all pathetic and a lost cause, so keep crying.
You deserve it
It's amazing how easy it is to "win" an argument that exists only in your imagination
I'm so fucking glad that I don't live in 'Murica.
If only we got more of those DNC ghouls in office they could have slowed down some of this a bit!
Couldn't be that the "other party" just absorbs every complaint, atrocity, demand for real change and delivers none. It's probably those annoying leftists who are messing up progress!
FWIW I vote as often as I can. It's not hard for me to tell who is more evil and what levers are available to me at the moment (I also don't disparage others with thoughtful reasons to do otherwise).
Your take sucks and smells like a real Reddit-ass analysis of why things are going badly.
Shut up you bigot!
If they voted for Copmala Iranian schools and hospitals could've been bombed by trans people and immigrants.
You have denied them of equal opportunities!
Same for if neoliberals gave up the delusion that chasing conservative voters is going to get them a higher turnout. But I have no doubt they will continue to try the same thing and punch left when they fail.
what principal do you mean? asking harris to say genocide is bad? asking the dem party to cut the horseshit with primaries? asking biden to leave a year before he did?
anyone who voted third party is not why trump is in office, their numbers plus harris’ would still have lost to trump. sadly.
but cut the thick shit pushing horseshit rhetoric like your reply. grow up. stop supporting genocide too.
