Work Reform
17031 readers
1457 users here now
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'm just telling you to fuck off in a more polite way, Mr. Nonconfrontational.
You are just inventing straw men to attack at this point, after ignoring just about everything I said (save for the parts that helped you pivot to your propaganda pitch).
You've done a +1 in the bucket of "Should I just block lemmy.ml?" Like 90% of the socialists I talk to from there end up being tankies and it's exhausting, not to mention erodes my faith in socialism. As I said, nothing you've said here has been in good faith.
Why do you argue in bad faith? I have no idea. Maybe you're secretly anti-socialist and want to make socialists look dumb.
soo, just to chime in, i get your whole point, and i agree with you. i'm just gonna propose another explanation why the other user behaves like a tankie:
meanwhile, the sovjet union failed for complex geopolitical reasons that had basically nothing to do with military power. so the tankies are wrong, but they're wrong because they're deeply hurt themselves, not because they're inherently evil people.
Oh I don't think they're evil. I stated very clearly that I have no idea what's going on in their head.
All I know is the effect they have on others, which is negative on average, and as a result - harmful to the spread of goodness in humanity.
It's like the kid down the street who was beat up by some black kids and is forever racist because of it. I can intellectualize that he's deeply hurt by his experience, and I can try to talk him out of being racist, but I'm still going to dislike him and try to block him from affecting others with his poison.
Again I'll remind that "Nonconfrontational" person I blocked you, so there's no point in replying to me. Following me around the thread downvoting everything I say kinda highlights the issue with people like you.
Before you assert that I must not have blocked you or I wouldn't know it was you:
I saw the
1 more replyand Lemmy wouldn't let me read it, which I assumed means it's from someone I blocked.I want to say you're the third or so person I've ever blocked on Lemmy.
I double-checked by logging out, and confirmed it was you.
My advice would be to touch some grass.
Lmfao. Y'all are fucking sick.
Edit: The bizarre lengths people go to to censor their own world view, lmao.
The USSR defeated the literal Nazis lol. God forbid they get a bit of praise in their attempt at socialism. Meanwhile, permanent war from America across the globe.
That sucks, or is good. I'm not reading your drivel. Can't wait for your country to collapse, either way.
Death to America.
K, whatever.
Enjoy making socialism - and the world - worse. I'll continue to try to make it better.
Blocking you now.
Lmao, thank you for ridding me from you!
