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.

Yes you can. Its not easy, but it can be done. Nothing stopping it from being reinvented, if the circumstances that initially gave rise to it don't change, but you can kill an idea. Especially a stupid one.
This isn't an ideology. Its an identity. They're not the same.
You've never met a zio. You've never dined at the table with one. You've never heard the songs they teach their young. You do not know what the fuck you're talking about. You are irresponsible, and I suspect you can only continue acting like this because you do not consider Arabs to be people.
The zios need to be stopped, and nothing short of extermination will stop them. We've fucking tried everything else. We fucking tried.

No you can't. The whole world is watching. You can't just quietly sweep millions and millions of human lives under the rug and expect everyone to nod along. Sympathy and empathy are inherent human emotions; someone will view them as martyrs, someone will feel remorse.
There is zero evidence that erasure of an idea can be accomplished by brute force. Hell, look at the attempt to wholly dismantle German martial nationalism after WW1 to see the opposite effect at play. You have to deconstruct it on multiple fronts: removal of its loudest advocates, counter messaging, education, remediate material causes, etc...
I mean.. Your bright idea to combat a belief system who's core tenet is a paranoid delusion of extermination is to validate it with attempts at an actual extermination...

So we're looking at a set of beliefs based around an assumption of ethno-nationalist superiority, which builds up to atrocities such as genocide. Gee whiz, it certainly sounds like zionism is an ideology to me.
Sounds like a strong belief in zionism can be a core part of someone's identity, but a human being is a complex creature with multiple defining facets. How much of a man is the zionist, how much is the musician, how much is the doctor, how much is the father...
How do you propose to root out these zionists? Ask them politely with a gun to their head? Kill anyone with some Nth degree of relation to known zionists? Polygraphs? The Thing-style blood tests?
How many false positives are acceptable? What percent of eradication is necessary to excise the cancer? What degree of confidence do you need to ensure this mass blood letting will definitively "stop the killing"?
I have. I have. I have. I know "what the fuck I'm talking about" because this vein of hate and violence is not new and your reaction is not a novel or useful solution. I have strong connections to Arab family and friends and have had these conversations, and I know for a fact they would be ashamed to have any association with your vitriol.
Please see a therapist because these thoughts are both counterproductive and self destructive. It's clearly an important and (probably) personal topic for you, which is all the more reason to tackle it seriously and not default to your base instincts. There are real and tangible differences you can make to improve the world and none of them start with a baseline of mass murder. It's not a matter of "taking the high road" or "being better than them", it's about taking practical and realistic steps to combat the deeply rooted violence of our civilization.
The fascist accuses you of what they are doing so that when you accuse them they can gaslight you. Fuck off with your doing their defensive work. How many more humans will die to try and coddle zio filth?
Bro replied in 2 min and didn't even read my comment. Deeply unserious.
Go scream into your pillow or something because that's all you're doing here while also making a fool of yourself. There's no logic or coherent thought to your arguments.
Best of luck champ, hope you get well soon 👋
I replied in 2 minutes because that's how long it took to write. I did read most of your comment, until my ptevious statement became obvious.
