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.

Keep pushing back. Don't let these disingenuous, self-righteous Lemmy users skate by without addressing the actual argument.

For the record, I don't support the Republican Party, MAGA, or Mitch McConnell.

I just find this kind of rhetoric frustrating because it gets reflexively upvoted. It gives people the warm feeling that they're standing up to oppression without requiring them to engage with whether the claim is actually true. It's more about reinforcing the group's narrative than critically examining the argument.
