"The lowest gender pay gap ever recorded. Food delivery workers winning new workplace protections and a new minimum hourly rate of pay, above the minimum wage. Workers winning a 'right to disconnect' -- meaning that their employers cannot force them to be available after working hours. New paid leave in cases of domestic abuse. And the union movement beginning to grow again."

Heh. Even #USAToday is talking about the #DSA! Caution - Contains #RedScare Propaganda!
#DemocraticSocialists of America propose radical overhaul of US govt
The Democratic Socialists of America want to fight for working-class Americans by offering #FreeHealthcare and abolishing the U.S. Senate [sic]. What else does their #WorkersDeserveMore platform say?
by Emily R. Condon
Updated Aug. 2, 2026,Excerpt: "Although not all self-described #DemocraticSocialists are in the Democratic Socialists of America, the DSA is an increasingly influential player on the left. Members include New York Rep. #AlexandriaOcasioCortez, New York City Mayor #ZohranMamdani and Michigan Rep. #RashidaTlaib, all Democrats. Three Democratic nominees for U.S. House of Representative seats – #DarializaAvilaChevalier and #ClaireValdez in New York and #MelatKiros in Colorado – also belong to the group, as do a growing list of state and local officials.
"A third of #Democrats identify as democratic socialists, according to a July 30 CNN poll, but it's possible that quite a few of those are not familiar with some of the DSA's more unusual suggestions for overhauling the U.S. government. A July 28 Reuters/Ipsos poll revealed that 47% of Americans say they don't understand democratic socialist policies.
"While President Donald Trump and his GOP allies slam democratic socialists as
'#communists,' the Democratic Socialists of America is defining its own brand in the new platform."The 120,000-member organization's policy roadmap has three sections:
- Thriving Working-Class Communities
- Working-Class Foreign Policy
- Working-Class Democracy "Read more [or not. I'll be posting the official DSA platform soon...]:

Google’s Alphabet Workers Union gathered 4500 signatures to demand “guaranteed severance, buyouts before mandatory layoffs in all product areas and the option to take severance as extended paid leave.”
It’s great to see tech unions finally working to demand better treatment from corporations that are raking in record profits.

Now it seems that every other parcel Evri notifies us about is delayed!
I think Evri would resolve all their delivery problems in one fell swoop if they paid better wages to their staff.

@stux I keep wondering when the bulk of tech workers are going to learn that if they build something they know can/will be used to rob artists, writers, photographers, videographers, illustrators, etc of their creative works, that they are not immune from the unethical uses their paymasters are putting the tool to...

I mean, *something* good had to come out of the techbro cult and the AI nonsense…
Might as well be this. 😁Also, in case anyone actually thinks about trying it, obligatory be careful when working for those guys in ANY form; the sex trade is no exception.
[And see https://kolektiva.social/@yenndc/116744338822177250, really.]Also 2, for people working in the tech industry “normally”: See? Your bosses CAN very much afford to pay a decent salary (and then some more).
Now go, unionize, and demand a raise. ;P#FuckBillonaires (and if literal, squeeze them dry of money, please). ^^

“On one side are those who defend workers’ rights, on the other are people who would not even have abolished slavery in our country.”

Protests in Bolivia are demanding the resignation of Rodrigo Paz, the country’s first right-wing president in decades. Since Paz took office in November 2025, the country has been placed under austerity measures that have led to a surge in poverty rates for much of Bolivia’s rural and working-class population

Violent protests erupt in Chile over government cuts of social programmes. Labour unions and student groups protested in Valparaiso, Chile as President Jose Antonio Kast delivered his first State of the Nation address. Demonstrators clashed with police, accusing his government of dismantling public healthcare, education, and social rights

Starbucks' signature "dark" coffee is made by over-roasting coffee beans until they're burned. This removes all of the natural variations of flavor from one batch of beans to another. It's purely for corporate standardization and branding purposes.
Kind of the way that capitalism treats human beings, now that I think of it!
