Warning: extremely toxic thread

I thought there was an antiwork community here? Anyways I'm not sure where to put this. Just kinda sucks that the interview didn't go well and that people are shitting on this person and misgendering her for not being a white male factory worker or something.

/r/antiwork is kind of in shambles rn because the mods are trying keep the discourse from spinning out of control but a ton of people there are being transphobic and turning on the mods, and of course the mods are being accused of being authoritarian for trying to run the sub.

I hope the sub can bounce back, but it's a dark day in there for sure.

    The interview was a mistake. What's ableist is saying it's because they weren't looking at the camera, were rocking, or wore a comfy hoodie.

    it made a huge difference to the conversation regarding the interview lol. clearly.

    It makes no difference to the interview, to the conversation about anti-work.

      well i wish i lived in your world where optics are made up and fake. however half the conversation is about how unprepared they were including presentation. does it materially matter? no. does it matter to 95% of the conversation people are having related to this interview? yes. it does. whether you think that its right or not

        Except the presentation wouldn't have mattered if they were actually prepared to answer questions, that's the point. That "95% of the conversation people are having related to this interview" is abelism, that's the point.

        And fuck your "optics". "Optics" is lib shit used to put down people who don't conform.
