r/antiwork: 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 …

Unfortunately we could not handle, like, 10,000 more leftists, 100,000 libs, and 20,000 chuds on this board.

Edit: When the sub comes back, there's going to be a lot of introspection and also a lot of vile transphobic shit. You should browse it and influence them during that time. Post your wins here or even better, post them as threads, dunktank style.

There's a lot of meta-discussion, (both good and :reddit-logo:) happening on https://www.reddit.com/r/WorkReform/ - Looks like mostly bad, go flame them and tell people to leave it.

There's also https://www.reddit.com/r/WorkersStrikeBack/ doing meta-discussion

Edit: the main sub is back. Go there are fight fed narratives. Browse new to get a word in early, and post your win screenshots to /c/agitprop

      lol this site is reactionary and transphobic? What the fuck are you talking about? I challenge you to find any other website that has a less transphobic community than here, or a higher proportion of trans users

        I mean, I'm sure we're not perfect, but from community policy down to the development priorities of the software this site runs on this has been among our most primary concerns.

            I remember. You're right. Take it from me. I've been a complete slacker as far as contributing to the site goes, but when that happened I was furloughed from work due to the economic impacts of Covid. Basically, r/ChapoTrapHouse got banned from Reddit then a week later I got called into a meeting to inform me that half of the company is being laid off.

            For a few months I was able to collect unemployment and do nothing but work on this shit. I added the database schema and back-end API for the pronoun feature on this website - part of the (but far from the only) reason it is now incompatible with the upstream Lemmy project. I was thinking at the very least, this will be a great way to piss off the chuds and drive them away from the site, and I guess I was right, but the ensuing meltdown cut deeper than expected. None the less, I think it was all for the best.

            We have struggle sessions from time to time. Then disingenuous hacks come piling on to say this is the end of the site, but it keeps going.

            You're also right though that the mods deal with an onslaught that most of us are privileged not to see.

        they mean hexbear. We just got handed another clear example why the vanguard/anarchist cels aren't going to come from posting. I for one enjoy being able to chill here and not see baby brained ass takes every 5 seconds that are oppressively every where else on the internet. If people want to join great, it's not like the admins said NO ANTIWORK FOLKS!

            I’ve seen you say similar things in general about this site before a few times but it doesn’t really matter. I don’t really agree that the general vibe here is reactionary or transphobic or that it’s more so than Reddit for sure. Like those elements are here bc they’re part of our society and therefore of course wind up here but I think our mods and even non mod users do a good job fighting back, which is all we can do until we can revolutionize society. You brough uo the pronoun struggle and honestly since then i think it was a pretty big turning point in the sites culture for the better.

            Either way, I agree with you that sincerity is better than irony poisoning and I think we always have room for more comrades here, but yea life boating the whole sub would be extremely unwieldy to control. Anyway I just got off work Im logging off this stuff. Good night comrade

      That may be, but r/antiwork being a subreddit full of reddit users most of them having terminal reddit brain will only make those tendencies much worse.
