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.

The fact you think people aren't voting in the primaries right now is actually hilarious. Progressives are doing it, and you're still butthurt about people criticizing corporate dems. And that's not even getting into the fact that the Dems will genuinely try to rig primaries to prevent ANY progressive from getting elected in the first place, so morons like you can run defense for them when they put forth shitty, weak candidates with no message that lost to the most unelectable person in the planet twice.
If progressives voted we'd have a progressive dem party. Pretty simple.
The reason it hasn't happened is because the corporate dems have sabotaged every progressive candidate that has ever shown their face. The only reason they're winning now is because of the corporate wing being so absurdly ineffective that people are voting for ANYONE that shows a spine, and it's DESPITE the fact the corporate dems are ratfucking them at every turn.
Oh yeah that's why mamdani lost oh wait you're full of shit.
Mamdani won despite TWO DEMOCRATS RUNNING FOR THE OFFICE TRYING TO PREVENT HIM FROM WINNING. Democrat higher-ups REFUSED to endorse him. It's always "vote blue no matter who" until it's someone that can actually make change who wins the primary, then it's "fuck party loyalty".
We're tired.
So mamdani won the democratic primary because democrats voted for him is what you're saying. The fact he won disproves all your shit. Fuck off tankie, you're not even American so you don't have jack shit for understanding of our political process in the first place.
Well get with the program or get ready for a lot more fuckin cuz what you're doing is gonna get it.
