Work Reform

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.

No no you're good. I appreciate the kindness. I also try to be kind to those who are kind, which is why I bothered to be persnickety about tone in the first place, because it did seem like you had good intentions.
Man, I don't know... "I'm sorry that I made you feel like a simpleton" sounds patronizing as fuck, and I'm not sure they deserve the benefit of the doubt that you've given them. I'm not sure they were actually trying to be kind.
Yeah, I wasn't going to get precise about it, but technically they didn't make me feel like a simpleton, just made me feel like they thought I was a simpleton, lmao. But its all good.
