    it’s not about the economic policies, it’s about the racism. They hate Black and trans people more than they want free healthcare…

      I don’t think they hate black and trans people but whatever warped version of black and trans people that they have been told. There have been studies that show having a gay friend in real life make people more accepting and I assume that similar things could be shown for trans and black people.

        Yeah, but when they won’t make that friend, that “fun fact” doesn’t help anyone. So they are, for all intents and purposes, de facto racist even if in a perfect world where we all hang out on Sesame Street they wouldn’t be.

        Yeah. Weaponizing people’s insecurities and the fear of the unknown is Reactionary poppulism 101.

      The culture war is the only lever the GOP has to win elections. Their domestic/economic policy is so bad for the majority of Americans if not packaged with propaganda.

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.
