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.

The fucker is actively cratering the once biggest economy in the world
and his constituents cheer.
I hope every one of you 'genocide joe' objecters who stayed home feel crushing guilt as you watch the country collapse due to your misplaced ideologies
I'd like it if Joe and Kamala felt some of that crushing guilt for giving missiles to the "blowing up Palestinian children with missiles brigade". Why is your gripe with the people who wouldn't vote for someone committing genocide and not, you know, the people committing genocide?
Just saying the democratic party could've not done that. Could've changed course on that at any time. And yet every chance you get you angrily point the finger at people who wouldn't vote for someone committing genocide, and not the people who wouldn't stop committing genocide. Make it make sense ๐ the election is over, its done, why is your ire still directed towards people protesting against genocide and not the perpetrators of genocide who literally could've stopped at any point, any point whatsoever before the election, and yet never did, never once even came close to doing that.
Here's why everyone is angry. Seemingly at people like you, I'm assuming, who decided not to vote. Democrats weren't the ones committing the genocide!! They were absolutely enabling it. Supporting it. Israel was committing the genocide and we weren't voting for their government. And then, on top of that, it was absolutely evident that Trump would make the genocide worse and not voting against him was effectively voting for him. And that's on you. You did that. There was a slim chance that Kamala could improve the situation and Palestinian lives. Instead, your lack of vote ensured that wouldn't happen, ensured that more Ukrainians would die, ensured that Africans would die, ensured that American women would die, ensured that millions of Americans will die if there's a pandemic. And now instead of just fixing the Democratic party for the future, we're also fighting fascism. So fucking congrats. Your short-sighted high horse didn't take a harm reduction strategy and many human lives are now gone. You need to fucking own that.
I agree with you. But also a democracy with only one democratic party is already a failed democracy from my point of view. So not only one party should be fixed as you said, but the whole two party system. I guess.....
