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." ?
Society is always about three missed meals away from blood in the streets.
Unfortunately if that’s the mind set Americans have there might never be a tipping point
Awake the sleeping giant, look it up.
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.
