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.

Outdated sure, but captivating nonetheless

Yeah, it's mindboggling as it is, but when you know how much more money the richest few people have made since it was last updated (the world’s five richest men have more than doubled their fortunes to $869bn since 2020), or how much all of the world's billionaires are hoarding combined (2,781 billionaires with a total net wealth of $14.2 trillion - the pixel site only goes up to 3.2 trillion), or that this trend isn't going anywhere or slowing down, it really is overwhelming.
