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.

If you have a good argument, let your argument stand.

Usually, yes. But that doesn't apply when the person you're arguing with is doing so in bad faith.

When people don't have a good argument they stand on insults.

That's literally all that Sanctus was relying on throughout this entire thread.

So instead of defending their argument they're insulting the people who disagree with them to try to make them go away? That is exactly what I said.

No, that's what Sanctus was doing. And rational people have no obligation to try to reason with others who are being irrational and disingenuous.
