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.

Ok, except your wealth comes from a transfer of wealth from the labor and resources from where I live. Your wealth is based on the super exploitation of the rest of the world. You are enemies of the global working class and you're not going to ever be revolutionary or do anything to change where you live because your material conditions are dependent on your empires continued exploitation of the rest of the world. At best people who live in the imperial core will use labor organization to secure themselves better welfare under the system you live in, you're incapable of changing it because you are the perpetrators of it and your material conditions are dependent on it. This is why Americans are useless babies and why you live in a country that is run by someone like Donald Trump, he perfectly represents you. This is why "tankies" support literally any country that fights you, because you are the actual global villains in your banal servitude to the empire.
Oh, you're just a racist garbage person. Xenophobia does not become OK simply because the target are Americans.
Well, if I guess if I'm irredeemably evil simply because of where I happened to be born, then you have no room to complain. I'm just doing what I was born to do, apparently. I'll disregard your words, because they're irrelevant to an evil monster like myself.
FYI, this person told me to kill myself because I said they don't handle criticism well and tell people to kill themselves.
I can't report it because I'm banned in the community for saying China isn't perfect.

Thanks. Blocked and moved on.
Boohoo the multi-millionaire equity holding property owner in the country that is murdering little girls in the country I come from and threatening to invade the country I live in thinks I'm xenophobic, oh noooooo.
All your wealth was stolen and you're part of an imperial machine that is no different than the Nazis. I already know you're racist garbage person, because you are American. You're not working class, you are exploiting the working classes wealth and hording it in your retirement account. If there was a revolution, you would turn your back on it as soon as the empire gave you more crumbs. You'd drop the rest of the world in a second when they dangle medicare for all there. Racist loser Americans have done that every. single. time.
The burden isn't on me to accept you richy rich, the burden is on you to actually do something about the shithole you live in.
