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.

The Guardian? A tabloid??
Are you the same idiot who called The Independent a tabloid last week or are there TWO people that clueless about British newspapers here? ๐คจ
Heyo I'm that clueless. Although I at least know it's the sun that's the tabloid (Liverpool forever or something)
The sun (or as many of my fellow Liverpool fans justifiably calls it, The Scum} is indeed one of the many atrocious British tabloids. Others include The Daily Fail (Mail), The Daily Scar (Star) and The Daily Sport.
As for The Guardian, it's one of many venerable British broadsheets (though the physical paper is now Compact along with The Times (also Compact), The Telegraph (actually still physically broadsheet), and The Independent (broadsheet format, then both broadsheet and compact, now online only)
I get that there could be some confusion regarding the physical paper since a British Compact is basically a broadsheet quality paper in tabloid format.
With regards to CONTENT quality and reliability, though, it's pretty much impossible to know The Guardian well and consider it a tabloid.
Unless you're one of those far right people who thinks that everything to the left of the Republican party is far left to the point of being inherently unserious, but I'm getting more of a "simply unfamiliar" vibe from you, which is why I took the time to clarify it all ๐
