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.

I keep wondering how much more CEOs, billionaires and massive corporations (along with the current administration) can push the American people before there is a backlash?
Right now Americans are like domestic violence victims and addicts
"Jamie is a good person, it was my fault for not coming back to the office that made things worse."
"Just one more subscription, I need to watch my shows!, I promise I'll quite after this season!"
When and what is the tipping point where people just say "Fuck it, I'm done." ?
Unfortunately if that’s the mind set Americans have there might never be a tipping point
Awake the sleeping giant, look it up.
Society is always about three missed meals away from blood in the streets.
This sort of backlash won't happen, though. There is a conservative culture war underway and it's win at all costs, damn the consequences. These are people who will continue to act against their own self interest.
