Work Reform Group

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.

"Feminist icon" Gloria Steinem was a CIA operative. Steinem ran CIA fronts to keep activists focused on gender and identity politics, instead of class war.

Ahhh the Susan B Anthony thing.

I might still give Feminine Mystique to a disillusioned striver tradwife as her first peek out of the cave though. It targets a certain demographic very well.

Saw a post about her passing on YouTube, which only mentioned her as a feminism activist and the comments were great. Basically mostly “ah, that CIA operative” you mean?".

Never really liked her vibe. Always seemed kind of fake.

So I’m not really shocked.
