Work Reform

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.

And yet you‘re just spilling phrases, can‘t argue on your own. You point your finger at me and say that I’m „slavishly following the default narrative (of) the rich“ while you‘re just repeating the same corporate speak that once killed the „occupy“-movement, coined by the 1% to divide the working class for good. Tell me: when you‘re pov aligns with basically all mega corps, political parties, celebrities and mainstream news outlets: who‘s the slave of the rich?
Wtf are you blathering about?? The Occupy movement was never anti-immigrant and, as we've alreeady discussed, the megacorps and the politicians they buy are for any chance of exploiting workers, regardless of nationality. I am for the free movement AND EQUAL HIGH STANDARDS OF TREATMENT of any worker in the world, which is the exact opposite of what they want.
I'd ask for some of what you're smoking, but clearly it rots the brain.
For someone not being able to see the bigger picture you’re language is quite strong. Stay happy being a corporate slave, cya.
Look, I found a gif of you!
(Was going to remove it since it won't post, but a broken link is also quite analogous of your confident ignorance 🤷)
I’m already aware that you are not able to take part in a discussion, dodging topics and context, so all you have are ad hominem attacks - at least I know what kind of person you are :)
Something to think about for you: „occupy“ - amongst other groups with similar missions - started to fail the moment ppl showed up and introduced identity politics, ripping the movement apart until no one took them serious anymore and the infighting destroyed the „closed front“. The 1% adopted that strategy and guess who’s now defending mass migration (not migration in general, unchecked, unselective, unconditional mass migration) as something everyone will benefit from without having any precedent while the ppl who have to actually live with the consequences beg to differ. Maybe you being a citizen of a country with almost half the citizens of cities like London and having a relatively strict immigration policy is not in a position to tell people what’s going on when it comes to this.
ps.: you posting a broken link and still gloating about, trying to frame it as an "own", really fits the picture.
You: spouts bullshit
Me: corrects bullshit with little to no insults
You: more bullshit
Me: more corrections with little to no personal insults
Repeat ad nauseaum
Me: tries to indirectly tell you to fuck off by pointing out that you're protecting wildly, succeeds in comparison to broken link instead
You: See? You have nothing but ad hominems, idiot!
🙄🤦
ya, ok, keep doing your thing while ignoring everything ppl say to you by pretending you're right about everything because you say so - i hope it works out for you and may your daughters marry well :)
There goes that projection again. Have the day you deserve.
