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 average maga voter isn't the mind behind the propaganda they parrot.

This is exactly the point.

They live in a controlled information environment; much like the Russian people who think Ukraine is full to the brim with Nazis.

They have been force fed hate and bigotry for decades at this point. They are not blameless, but also they don't deserve all the hate that is projected at them.

As pointed out, the education system is gutted, thus they are not curious and checking their biases; it is normalized for them to be hateful toward "others"; their whole world is small and full of fear.

I pity them their small pathetic lives, and dislike them for their shitty views. The only thing I hate is that the stupid bigotry seems to be spreading around the world.

I mean, I agree with you on all this, but I have a very hard time seeing how this is relevant to my comment. The topic was conservative propaganda techniques, not hating conservative voters. I despise them, but hate is too strong a word for me to feel for any person.
