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.

Oh I don't think they're evil. I stated very clearly that I have no idea what's going on in their head.

All I know is the effect they have on others, which is negative on average, and as a result - harmful to the spread of goodness in humanity.

It's like the kid down the street who was beat up by some black kids and is forever racist because of it. I can intellectualize that he's deeply hurt by his experience, and I can try to talk him out of being racist, but I'm still going to dislike him and try to block him from affecting others with his poison.

Again I'll remind that "Nonconfrontational" person I blocked you, so there's no point in replying to me. Following me around the thread downvoting everything I say kinda highlights the issue with people like you.

Before you assert that I must not have blocked you or I wouldn't know it was you:

I saw the 1 more reply and Lemmy wouldn't let me read it, which I assumed means it's from someone I blocked.
I want to say you're the third or so person I've ever blocked on Lemmy.
I double-checked by logging out, and confirmed it was you.

My advice would be to touch some grass.

Lmfao. Y'all are fucking sick.

Edit: The bizarre lengths people go to to censor their own world view, lmao.
