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.

The Republican and Democratic parties have placed targets on AOC, Bernie Sanders, and Mamdani because they aren't on the oligarchs side.

Indeed and there are plenty of ill informed dumbshits that will vote against her.

And the rest of us are on their side, and it's time to start throwing our weight around.

It starts with elections. The only reason the Establishment guys are paying attention is because the DemSocs are winning primaries, even against entrenched incumbents. Even worse, those that have been elected are far more effective that the average elected loser, and those wins have tended to be on the side of the Citizens.

They're doing everything right, they're succeeding, and they are gathering followers FAST.

No wonder the incumbent losers are panicking. They'll eventually accept it, and get on board. Except the MAGAs, they should be panicking.
