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.

I always wonder why people like this are on here.
Do you require an echo chamber or do you want to actually bring change?
If you can't even convince me.
I worked a year 32h a week. I don't see the issue why you don't just do that. You get paid for those 32 hours ya know
I have no clue what you’re trying to say.
You don't understand much
Aren’t trying to explain yourself either, you’re either a troll or don’t understand it yourself.
Nah it's comprehensible.
You don't understand why I'm here.
I gave you explanation, then you didn't understand it.
Hence it's rather funny that you don't seem to understand anything.
Another attempt.
This is Lemmy, just like Reddit it is structured into echo chambers. The current politics is dominated by polarisation. A lot of right Vs left. Little amount of people being centrists.
You being leftist, don't understand that someone on the right side would be here.
So you just continue the polarisation (which greatly harms you btw, right wing is winning tremendously because of this).
So, tbh I prefer to be a centrist.
So for the love of god. Can any of you fucks actually convince me of your desire of a 32h work week.
Give good arguments. Logical ones. So that the people without empathy might give a damn. Learn to convince people.
I don’t understand why you’re here cause you aren’t wanted here. You’ve made a load of shit up in your head and used it to answer a question that was never asked.
I'm not wanted here, because it's an echo chamber.
I'm still here. So, maybe you should start using your brain and start figuring out why I am here.
Do you think people don't go places just because they aren't wanted? You think you have any ability to threaten me so that I wouldn't be here?
Nah. I'm just here because it's on my social media feed and the content interests me. I'm against what you people want to achieve and I don't have an issue with letting you know that.
You think you’ve got some amazing angle here that no one has thought of before and you’re doing us a favour by stopping this from being an “echo chamber”, or something. But the reality is that it’s just tired ideas that have been collectively dismissed by leftists. You clearly think differently, but you’re just a troll.
Why would it be something that nobody has thought of before? It's common knowledge that polarisation is a big issue nowadays.
You're just unwilling to do anything about it.
Yes, and we should be moving to the left, not the centre.
That means more pay, more holiday time, shorter days, less expectations.
It won’t happen if people don’t push for it.
I demand stronger rights and protections. You should speak for yourself, not everyone.
