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.

and I want to be clear - this means no aid to Ukraine either. We are broke as it is.

Why are you going around shitting on everyone encouraging voting? Voting is the bare minimum first step to participating in politics.

You want to try organizing a bunch of people who don’t even bother voting into action? Good luck with that.

I'm shitting on the framing of "voting is the thing you do to take our country back" when that has failed since...

always. You get progress from fighting elected leaders, almost never from just electing them.

I vote and encourage others to do so too. But I vote because it's easy and can help the actual struggle a little, not because it will save me.

I wasn’t sure about your intention initially. Fair enough, thanks
