    this is about being paid your value, being treated fairly and upholding your rights. This subreddit is more capitalist than most American companies these days that instead of actually paying higher wages to find labor, are actively trying to undermine it instead.

    I think this fella misunderstands what capitalism is lol.

      half a million white liberals just joined r/antiwork in the past couple months, and they're doing what white liberals do - strolling into the place, ignoring the people who are already there, and blithely dictating their own personal politics as representative of the subreddit

            to be clear, imo that is exactly the kind of thing we should be doing in there, not shitposting mocking memes and attacking the mods trying to make them hostile, or proposing some kind of clubhouse takeover to own the anarchists or whatever

              Almost got banned for genocide denial when pushing back against some stuff being thrown out about the Kulaks to dismiss my points about Soviet labor rights and organization, then turned it around with the mod taking my side against Yang morons.

                Yeah the mods over there are definitely not entirely on the same page but their hearts are in the right place and they'll be easy to push with a little friendly education.

      Most people take the word and just use another definition for it. Something like "We don't have real capitalism, cause it's really supposed to be about capitalizing on yourself. What we have now is 'corporatism'" or some shit like that
