Sex Workers Are Workers

The problems of the sex industry are labor problems.

Trafficking is slave labor.

Exploitation is exploitation of labor.

…Labor Unions Just Make Me Feel A Lot Of Feelings

Me listening to There Is Power In A Union: *sobs* Workers solidarity is so beautiful
Me contemplating local striking workers: *bawling on floor* solidarity comrades.
