The bank’s economics team pointed to the reddit thread r/Antiwork to illustrate how younger workers may be in the midst of a social movement away from work.
Redditors have scared the capital owners :lets-fucking-go:
Antiwork is itself suss imo. I do not envision a wave of people quitting their jobs leading to much things that help workers.
They quit and then what? Gas is like $5 a gallon and food / rent is as expensive as it’s ever been. It’s just a bunch of atomized subjects participating in silo’d actions.
I want to be wrong about this but I feel that porky loves that the limit of American resistance is quitting one’s job and bumming it for a while before returning to work at one of the monopolies that survived the “labor shortage.”
A subreddit for those who want to end work, are curious about ending work, want to get the most out of a work-free life, want more information on anti-work ideas and want personal help with their own jobs/work-related struggles.
I don't really get 'we are opposed to work under capitalism, not as a whole' from that

The subreddit is mostly opposed to work under capitalism, not work as a whole. The name is just a catchy hook.
This. Ironically, most of the comments and posts on the sub are actually about how much people want to work, but get nothing for it under capitalism.
