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.

For the first time you lot have consequences for your imperialism, and yet you still refuse to learn a lesson from it. You get zero fucking sympathy from me. Ineffective, weak leaders is what leads to fascism. Those are the consequences of your actions. You can cry all you want, but all of those deaths are on YOU for consistently voting for leaders that haven't changed their strategy since the 90's and sabotage anyone trying to run on their party for positive change.

Also, you wanna learn something? Republicans now get significantly more votes from low attention, low engagement voters. Saying "We're not Trump" doesn't do anything for them. They don't have loyalties. They don't even bother researching. That's why Trump was so popular with them, he had a direct message that reached them. Most Democrat voters are already highly engaged, and that isn't enough to win elections anymore. As long as you refuse to court low engagement voters by actually delivering a message, you'll keep failing.
