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.

I don’t believe it because while the Dems are terrible at social media they’d never waste money on Lemmy

That's the cool thing about unpaid interns...

We're talking about capitalists, here. They understand opportunity costs are losses.

I'm not sure what that has to do with the use of free labor.

Basically if they use an unpaid intern on Lemmy that's one less unpaid intern on a social media platform that average people actually use.
