I think this is good to read. the media likes to blow things out of proportion for spectacular reasons. they want eyeballs, and they'll pretend there is a mass quitting movement if it gets clicks. they see the rise of r/antiwork and want in on those eyeballs.

    I don't think it's blown out of proportion, they just have no clue how to deal with a market where the worker has more power and they're dependant on them. The last time this happened was in the 50s/60s and most western countries started importing workers from abroad to push down wages. Through their own racist divide and conquer, they can't do that anymore, so they've painted themselves into a corner where all options lead to better circumstances for workers.
