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.

There’s a lot of confusion about what democratic socialists want, and that’s fair. Even within our group, there are differences among us. (lemmy.nz)

Why do Republicans insist on making DSA sound so fucking cool?

I came into the comments to see if this was satire. That's a fucking great ad for DSA.

"The children these days are still afraid of the communism, yeah? Just paint them as commies, that'll solve 'em."

The majority of people are afraid of things they are told to be afraid of. Education dispels the fear. That's why the GOP loves the poorly educated.

Saw an attack ad against Abdul here in MI yesterday, that honestly made me want to vote even more for him by pointing out how 'dangerous' he is to establishment.

lol there's been a couple of great interviews with the leaders of the DSA attempting to explain their policies

"oh no we don't mean that we mean, err something, err, whatever i can make up right now"

at least try to make the policies on your website make some sense so your people don't look like clowns when asked about them

I think DSA spokespersons candidates like Mamdani have actually done a wonderful job at explaining their policies, idk what you're on about.
