Nov 5, 2026, 3:22 PMThe workers in Bangladesh are striking for their wages to be doubled. But that would only cover 82% of their living expenses. That's not a living wage either!

Its absolutely hopeless how low our people's hopes for their lives are in this country. They don't even expect what would be bare minimum in most regions.

Billionaire scum who profit off of the suffering of others never want to pay a living wage. But their claims are lies.
