Site with over a million users and one of the biggest agitprop vehicles of the last five years and now it's private. Lol. Lmao.
Edit: Ok, now the mods are saying making the site private is only temporary while they "deal with the cleanup from ongoing brigading."
One thing that I do think it's important to keep in mind is losing a subreddit isn't going to kneecap the workers' movement in the US or anywhere else. The current upswing in labor action, both coordinated and spontaneous, have been the product of material conditions and on-the-ground organizing. At the end of the day, r/antiwork was at best a place to distribute agitprop, and it was never an ideal place for that.
This is to say that all the redditors saying that this incident has "killed" the "anti-work movement" are far more cringe than the interviewee.
Any movement based on a mainstream social media platform was bound to get shut off or sabotaged in some way. I just hope it got some people exposed to lefty or at least broadly anti-capitalist ideas and how they relate to their actual lives.
:10000-com: Social media (especially a subreddit without any clear direction) is a reflection of material conditions, not the cause of them.
