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.

Vote in the primaries.
Don't blame the voters for the results of dishonest or nonexistent primaries.
"When I don't get the result I want I call the election rigged."
Who do you sound like?
Americans will point the blame at anyone other than themselves.
Democrats successfully argued in court that they do not have to run honest primaries. Democrats selectively protect centrist incumbents like Henry Cuellar but not progressive incumbents like Cori Bush and Jamaal Bowman. Democrats sued as many candidates off as many ballots as they could in 2024. Democrats denied us a primary in 2024.
It's a documented pattern of behavior. Stop gaslighting just because it results in genocidal shit candidates you like.
Welp.
Guess we'll just go with the felon rapist backed by a party of criminal traitors who are now destroying our economy, flagrantly violating the Constitution, and, oh yeah, executing American citizens in the street.
Seems like the smart thing to do when we're upset at Dems for, checks notes, not being perfect.
Gaslighting is abuse.
Look at what happened to Mamdani.
He... won?
Yes.
IN SPITE OF THE DNC TRYING TO TORPEDO HIM WITH ANDREW “SEX CRIMINAL” CUOMO.
When Democrats say “you should have voted in the primary” what they mean is they’re going to put their thumb on the scale to get their candidate nominated and expect you to vote for them even if they don’t have a single progressive position.
No one owes Democrats their vote. Democrats need to earn votes. You can do that, by, I don’t know, running a progressive candidate. Progressive policies are wildly popular and will win elections. Liberal Democrats won’t. Especially the ones constantly chasing those elusive centrist ~~donors~~ voters.

Oh but those aren't "real" Democrats eh?
Fucking lying bullshit.
I mean, no, they’re DSA. Part of the wing establishment Dems have repeatedly say they hate more than republicans.
Speak of the devil, here’s a real democrat:

But yes, vote blue no matter who! 🤪
Givesomefucks even gave you the DNC chair endorsing mamdani but keep going off morons.
"Real" Democrats. Stupid dividing bullshit.
They’re laughing at you. They do nothing for you and you vote for them anyway.
That’s literally a metric politicians use among each other — how little can they do for their constituents and still get re-elected.
They mock fellow politicians who do anything for their constituents to get reelected.
I’m not joking.
