Work Reform

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.

If you still use Amazon, you’re supporting this kind of capitalism
Unfortunately it's very difficult not to support Amazon indirectly because they make a lot of their money from AWS, which a large fraction of the internet runs on.
don't let perfect be the enemy of evil. punching back a behemoth corporation whose policies actively hurt people is significantly better than just letting them steamroll you.
better late than never, cancelled my subscription last week!
Thankfully I've managed to buy any sorta niche stuff I needed from literally anywhere else.
A cursory glance at Amazon revealed it's basically a bloated corpse stuffed with trash at this point.
I'd put more trust in careful Ebay shopping to avoid straight-up fakes anymore.
