Establishment Democrats think they know who is "electable". These are the same guys that saw this in 2016 and said yeah we want Hillary.

    The thing is, and we’ve seen this in 2020 and in the recent LA and NYC mayoral, and cali gubernatorial elections, is that black dem voters prefer the establishment option over the progressive one.

    Any progressive movement needs to do a lot better job of outreach than they’ve been doing for the last 10 years.

      They’re trying to run the Clyburn/Biden playbook in Michigan and losing badly.

        Another poll cited in mid‑July reporting showed Stevens at 67% vs. El‑Sayad at 21% among Black Democratic primary voters, while El‑Sayad led among white, college‑educated, and self‑identified democratic socialists

        We’re just out voting the black voters, not flipping them.

        If we want nation wide progressive success and a 2028 progressive presidential nominee then something will have to change.

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.
