My s.o. old employer tried to pull some shady shit with the employees during covid and the PUA benefits.

He took them off the clock, starting paying in cash, and said "well i know your getting PUA, so I'm giving you 3$ an hour".

Then he even tried to convince them that they'd actually OWE him money when all said and done LOL

The user "swoletariat" on Tiktok makes some really high quality videos of sonic the hedgehog explaining things like wage theft and how to unionize. I've never used tiktok in my life, but I think this kind of memefication of serious issues is the best way to raise awareness with gen-Z.

I saw it because someone messaged me the video file directly via discord. I highly recommend sharing it around.

The upper class pays for lawyers and lobbyists and special interest groups to advocate on their behalf. The middle and lower classes do not have this benefit, that's why we must band together to fight for each other.
