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.

Yeah famine in Gaza isn't because of economic forces it's because of Israel deliberately starving them. There has been enough humanitarian aid available to feed the starving for decades at this point, the sticking point is people with guns getting in the way.

Do you think people in Africa starve because some evil capitalists decide they want people in Africa to starve? Food can't get to people when there's a lot of people with guns shooting at each other.

When people hate, they will only care about doing violence against their enemies and not care about it causing people to starve. Would you call upon Hamas to put down their weapons to prevent people from starving? If not, that's choosing to let people starve.
