Pass me the cyanide gas because this seems like a highly successful op.
The 30 year old dog walker did an interview on Fox that was pretty cringe but all in all not THAT bad imo but is set off a firestorm and 200k people instantly joined /r/workreform
Here's where it gets fun. The 3 mods of /r/workreform all work at the same bank. One is A CTO and the others claim to be low level employees. Link
The new sub seems like a bunch of libshits. "It’s work reforms not anti capitalism"
"This isn't necessarily an anti-capitalism sub. We may share many of the same ideals and goals, but "
"If you want anticaptialism, go to /r/LateStageCapitalism"
tl;dr a 30 yo dog walker was too much for the libs to handle 😅
I'm personally waiting for the dust to settle before I cast judgement on them. Most likely they work for the bank as low-level employees like they said, and the other person who is at the same bank was just a co-worker who they knew they could trust with moderation duties instead of some rando on the internet. Frankly, if we're going to have any sort of socialist movement gain broad support in the US, we're just going to have to come to terms with the fact that a bunch of us are in the professional managerial class.
It's already better than /r/antiwork in terms of being free of the terminally-online sectarian bullshit the antiwork mods were pushing.
