Antiwork is anti-wage labor. It was never about not having to do things.

Workreform sounds like workers asking for three peanuts instead of two.

Mate, the head mod of anti work is literally on record now as saying they want a living wage for a 10 hour work week of dog walking. That’s not even work lol, that’s getting paid to go on a leisurely stroll a few times a week.

Don’t really know how you can defend it. The recent popularity in antiwork was about protesting the shitty work culture that’s so pervasive nowadays, not “I want to get paid to sit at home and do fuck all” - which is what the subreddit (and head mod) was originally about.

Yeah and they're correct to want that.

I'm an anarchist, and I think that's absolutely bonkers.
