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.

Look, on the one hand, I understand your sentiment. On the other hand, these are the voters you have, blaming them won't get them to the polls, "teaching them a lesson" won't get them to the polls. As hard as it may be to primary the Dems who are voting for Trump's picks, who are voting for genocide, who are even trying to pull Trump towards war right now, it is still easier than getting new voters if you're not into domestic genocide like Trump.
I understand you're frustrated with voters, but it's something that you can't change. Some people will not vote if the options are "one genocide or two genocides". You can change the politicians, try to get more people like AOC and Bernie and less people like Schumer though.
Then those people are just as culpable for fascism's rise and I will treat them as such.
rusty shitbox is ALWAYS better than radioactive rusty shitbox that is also on fire
"AOC and Bernie"
LOL
I get they are not "left enough", but who do you have in the US that is not radical right wing? I agree that maybe throwing the whole thing out and starting out again would be better, and the US is definitely going that way, but what do you suggest?
You have De la Cruz and others.
They get targeted, not sheepdog Bernie 'israel has a right to defend itself' or AOC.
They are all part of it. If Americans keep trying to fix that party then they deserve what they get.
I'm European and it's completely obvious.
Are Americans really that stupid that they keep believing empty words from politicians and don't do some research?
You people have learned absolutely fucking nothing.
Dude... yes. Have you not been paying attention?
