    At what point do we, as the proletariat, swear vengeance on the ownership class, who actively conspired across decades to starve us out and enslave us?

        It doesn’t get mentioned a lot, but that’s what it took for the French Revolution too. We haven’t even started eating horses yet (though there aren’t even 1% of the number of horses there were in cities back then). Gonna have to be cats and dogs instead.

        Sadly, it’s not easy to organize twelve million Americans.

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.
