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.

They call it the ‘100-80-100’ concept. This means employees will retain 100% of their salary, work 80% of the time, but contribute 100% of their output still.

I'll attempt to translate.

I suppose that if lemmy.world didn't want worldwide news (eg. post about Germany), then perhaps they should have chosen a different name.

They are trying to tell you that "EUgerman spam" you are complaining about is in fact not spam, but rather it is a normal part of a world-wide discussion.

Ah, so they just didn't read the context. Thank you for the translation.
