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.

When the Democrats regain power, their centrist leadership will claim, "We can't do anything because...". Don't be fooled. We need to get the corporate centrists out and real progressives in! (lemmy.today)

Those things we didn't get in 2024?

Democrat primaries, famous for listening to the voters and propping up who they vote for. Never any fuckery in a democratic primary

The 2024 Democratic primaries happened. Joe Biden won. Then his own voters made such a fucking stink about his age (despite his accomplishments) that they forced him out at the last minute and it defaulted to his VP, who Democrat voters also voted for by association of voting for Joe Biden.

You think we should have held a primary 2 months before an election? Would have been chaos.

The party sued as many opponents off the ballots as it could, so that Biden's name was the only one on the ballot in all 50 states. His handlers hid that his brain was pudding until he bragged about finally beating Medicare at the debates.

And then they installed Harris and you're going to bat for them for it.

I think biden never should have run. For anything. Ever. He's a genocidal piece of shit.
