      The most we can probably do is get as many optics on this as possible. Let them know this won’t be done in the dark.

        Start generating stochastic terrorism targeting billionaires is also an option. Put up flyers with like 'Someone should DO SOMETHING about the ultra wealthy parasites" with some gun graphics, maybe some home addresses.

        We’re not so far into dystopian cyberpunk that the ultra wealthy have indestructible cyberbodies. Any disgruntled twitter employee could throw Musk out the window and he’d die like anyone else.

        Is it wrong that I could go for a vigilante at this point? A Robin Hood of sorts but more violent?

    Just like Microsoft and the IRS, they’ll get this done. Piece by piece, it’s all falling into place. The worst place.

    Fuck Amazon, support the unionization effort at KCVG the companies largest airhub. A small donation can go a long way to support leaders legal battles facing illegal firings as well as show solidarity to employees who Amazon is constantly trying to intimidate.

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.
