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.

I opine this is the advantage of growing up on social media and being used to deliberating. When I was a young clerk in the late eighties, we were pressured not to ask questions about cruel treatment, (which factored into my suicidality.)
When zoomers see something weird or harsh, they go on social media and ask their homies my boss keeps hanging around looking down my blouse. Does anyone else think it's super creepy? So they get a lot of rapid feedback.
Maybe they'll lead the revolution toppling capitalism.
I hope so, very much.
My boss keeps hanging around his yacht, while I can't afford a house. Does anyone else think that's super exploitative?
Who's up for a barbeque and guillotine siesta this friday? Please RSVP before wednesday so I know how much food I need to buy in advance.
