    Yeah, sure, good luck only working 150 days, or even taking a whole day off, when you’re supposed to tend to farmland and animals. That’s like having a holiday from being a parent

      Assuming communal farming, you just rotate who works each day.

        Funny, I didn’t know calling out bullshit was the same as “defending my oppressors”. I’d love if you could point out the kind of crazy mental gymnastics needed for that

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.
