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.

OBEY. DO NOT RESIST. OBEY.
That pastor may want to reread the Bible. Jesus was a rabble rouser.
-----ians dgaf about Jesus. He's a mascot, they worship Paul.
True
Eh.
Anti-Roman imperialist.
Pro Jewish theocracy.
The Jewish theocracy was involved in his murder. So, he apparently said and did a lot of things they didn't agree with.
This is the opposite of what the biblical Jesus did.
Says pay taxes to Rome.
Calls religious leaders a brood of vipers.
No, he pointed to Roman denari in a time when the area used multiple forms of coinage, including their own shekels, and said to a Roman spy to "Render unto Caesar's what is Caesar's," and was eventually executed for treason and being generally obnoxious to the Romans. He also routinely called out religious corruption while demonstrating perfect knowledge of religious law, which, by the way, would have included extremely clear penalties for accepting the Roman Emperor as a god, refusal to do so being treason in the empire.
A skeptical sort might note that, to a rebellious territory that would launch a massive, religiously rooted revolt a few decades after his assumed death, while his new cult had spread like wildfire, "What is Caesar's" might have two answers to a conquered subject and a Roman.
You might also ask yourself if the Roman Church might have downplayed certain aspects of his life while proselytizing and becoming part of the imperial establishment.
So, you’re making things up. Cool.
