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.

That's me reading what was there in plain text.
Someone explained to you what the problem was and you responded by saying you didn't see what the problem was.
It seems to be your go-to.
I don't see a problem with the ID verification that you currently have in place. As in, I don't see a problem with the verification methods that they described. Should be pretty clear?
Every other commenter seems to have gathered as much, but sure, misunderstandings can still happen. But this thread is now pretty long, so I don't think a misunderstanding is the problem here.
Gaslighting is what you're doing. If there was a misunderstanding, fine - I can clarify and that's that. But you're trying to tell me what I meant and where my opinions are derived from (i.e. your media cycle). That's what gaslighting is. It has nothing to do with having different opinions or challenging someone's views.
You literally said I needed therapy because I disagreed with you.
I'm done dealing with you. Go abuse someone else who doesn't like people being disenfranchised.
You do need therapy man. I'm genuinely sorry if it is unavailable to you but you're literally looking for unnecessary fights. We're fucking agreeing over the specifics, but for some reason you're still pressing on and creating a conflict where there absolutely is none.
Good idea to quit this thread now though.
That's not your call to make, and it's certainly not predicated on my disagreeing with you.
Of course not. It's predicated on the fact that you're creating a conflict over nothing. We're not disagreeing over the voter ID verification.
You were told why it was a problem and kept denying it was. Now you're trying to backpedal.
Tell me I'm insane some more. It's what you do when you can't admit you're wrong.
OK.
Concession accepted.
OK.
