Beehaw's community for socialists, communists, anarchists, and non-authoritarian leftists (this means anti-capitalists) of all stripes. A place for all leftist and labor news and discussion, as long as you're nice about it.

Non-socialists are welcome to come to learn, though it's hard to get to in-depth discussions if the community is constantly fighting over the basics. We ask that non-socialists please be respectful and try not to turn this into a "left vs right" debate forum by asking leading questions or by trying to draw others into a fight.

Just remember, any time the media says "the economy" they mean "rich people". Workers being exploited and abused is an issue, but clearly the problem is its impact on the economy and not, y'know, people.

Workers can be easily replaced even for technical positions... plenty of unemployed wishing to work for whatever condition. "Everyone is needed but no one is necessary" as my former HR manager used to say (I left that company because it was hell, btw).
