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.

Did you see this post? Its not about voting in primaries. It's about not participating because the ball is going to be pulled out in front of you. Yes, vote in primaries. Also, vote in the general for the best candidate.
You say everyone already votes in the general, but that's blatantly not true. There's an especially rampant trolling effort to get people not to vote who would vote against Republicans. It's strategic apathy. It happened last time, and it's happening now. If you don't see this, you're blind.
@Cethin @SalamenceFury
The Democratic party's support for genocide makes it really hard to tell where the legitimate criticism ends and the trolling begins.
And that's nobody's fault but theirs.
Really showing off that American education, "instead of voting for the less genocidal platform I'll enable the much more genocidal platform because I don't understand civics or harm reduction!"
@edible_funk
Just saying, when you support genocide, some people will take a stand, and you won't always like how they do it.
. . . not to mention lying about it, calling opponents of genocide antisemites . . .
I'm sorry if you still can't see how some people would look at all of that and realize that both sides want them dead.
And a grade school understanding of civics should inform you that not voting is a vote for republicans, so you still made a choice and that choice was directly for everything that's currently happening. Principles aren't really relevant when the results are obvious.
@edible_funk
Republicans weren't committing genocide in 2024 -Democrats were.
Imagine having this poor of an understanding of anything.
