Full disclosure on Friday night my brother chill-left showed me this conversation and I believe it is worth sharing.
“Teia Rabishu” has been the top mod of antiwork since the massive scandal of a moderator appearing on Tucker Carlson who spoke about their part time job as a dogwalker. She appears not to understand the concept of the Overton window. Her defense of the decision to ban, “Platforms affiliated with the CCP, such as TikTok and Rednote, because China is a hostile foreign government and these platforms constitute information warfare.” despite the opposition of the moderators and users of the sub is suspicious, unethical, and totalitarian. In typical “dictator fashion”, her entire stance seems to be “china bad” and she constantly argues via logical fallacies. Not only this but, “Caledric” from the beginning of being a moderator for antiwork openly admits to working for US intelligence and expresses sympathy as well as agreement to their ideological framing and conclusions. “Teia” defends and supports “Caledric” as well as upholds the ideological anti-communism and red scare propaganda which led to this entire debacle.
This document and photos where leaked by u/chill-left before he was banned from the anti-work subreddit. He was a moderator dissenting within their internal communication discord. The supposed reason for his ban was calling for democratic elections to replace the head moderator of the antiwork subreddit. As well as disagreeing with “Teia Rabishu”.
Please share this with any interested individuals or parties, especially anyone associated with antiwork.
No serious organization would have placed that person in charge of speaking to fox news. She wasn’t media trained in the least. From the outside in of that situation someone told her it was a good idea to do that. When it was so obvious it wasn’t.
My assumption was & is that, as a rule, subreddits are hardly organizations at all, never mind serious ones. They’re just internet randos modding in their spare time/underwear like me. I would have been much more surprised if that person did have media training.
Though there are exceptions, like r/neoliberal.
While there’s definitely truth to that. I’m also skeptical that the growth of that sub was organic. But that might just place me in tinfoil hat territory. I just know the easiest way to sabotage a movement is have the movement do it for you. Let alone choosing fox news to do your debut interview.
The amount of fake stories like “my boss was a huge piece of shit then I punched him and quit and everyone clapped then I got a job making x3 my old salary” was very fishy.
