Why stop at 250?

Close em all and fuck off with your overrated, overpriced garbage.

I hope this results in the return of more small independent coffee shops.

I used to love checking out the vibe of local coffee shops when I traveled.

Now it’s hard enough to find ones that haven’t been replaced with a generic Starbucks.

That is great !

I hope the starbucks around me will close too!

Let independant coffee places replace them and invest on being good places rather than on advertisings.

@lemmy.world

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.
