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.

Are the same petty mods running this show? If so, please ban me immediately. I don't see how you can reconcile claiming to fight labor exploitation while at the same time giving away your labor for free to a billion dollar company.

I can't support it anymore. Not just the company, but the entire site has gone to shit with bots and spammers flooding it and harassing people. I went those 9 years without really noticing a single bot or spammer, then suddenly over the last couple months it was like an explosion. I kind of hope it was retaliation from the users and an attempt to push people off the platform.
