FIGHTING BACK AGAINST AI with worker action AND solid contract protections.
Last year, ZDCG took action online and in-person to gain AI guardrails. We swarmed Slack, spoke out at the bargaining table, and took to the streets to picket.

It's infuriating when someone posts their grocery bill online and someone else says "you're just shopping wrong." You are flatly in denial if you don't think prices are outrageous across products and stores
Groceries saw their biggest jump in nearly three years last month, a worrisome sign for inflation-weary shoppers. Tariffs are contributing to higher prices for imported staples like bananas and coffee.

The Hasan Piker dog collar incident shows that proponents of the surveillance state, like Larry Ellison, who claimed that mass video surveillance would lead to more accountability, are catastrophically wrong.

If you think ai porn "Avoids exploitation of sex workers" you REALLY don't give a single solitary shit about sex workers.....or people in general for that matter.
A categorically new version of pornography centered on narrative while avoiding exploitation of sex workers and millions of liberal millennials inexplicably pretending like they're not going to use it

If any other president in all of history said the military should use American cities as a training ground he would be removed from office that same day. The hardest thing to tolerate in all this is how relatively silent elected democrats are. It’s ridiculous.
