Is this community going to be about organizing and taking action, or just memes and screenshots of tweets?

I'm all for reforming our current work system, but we need organized action. Can we make that happen here? Or is there a different community for that?

I don't believe it's possible to reform anything purely online. At some point you have to organize with your neighbors. Maybe try finding a local group, or local chapter of a national group and get involved with them. The DSA could be a good starting point, at least to help you meet other people with similar beliefs.

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.
