      They should post in the right place. This isn’t a community about labour organising. In fact labour organising is antithetical to the purpose of this community.

        My bad I guess, I thought that this was a place for Marxist views of labor, but I guess y’all don’t want to do any work of any kind. which is weird and scary.

            Cause I was on antiwork on Reddit since it started and Work Reform since it started, and because I’ve seen a lot of content?

        I mean I guess. Im more of sympathizer or agreer on many parts with this group. I know when I was in the space the library was copied from I ended up unsubscribing mainly because the guy running it went of on links to some persons things and said no one should ever link to them and well I felt it was a pretty good viewpoint. Your comment feels the same for me here although not as harsh or authoritarian for sure. For me I don’t see the world becoming star trek with replicators combined with ai making no human effort needed at all in life. Its more anti job to me than anti work. With people doing things they are interested in and even proud to do with agency and willingness. Like if I did not otherwise have to work I would love to just clean up around my condo and neighborhood more regularly and free up someone to work on open source code or something and I would hope there would be folks willing to speak with me and run and utilize technology about my health. Unions to me are doing this. Improving conditions and making more something would want to do or be proud to do and not feel being taken advantage of (I realize we are a long way from there but I feel they are trying to make incremental improvements in the direction). This is a big thing to me in the recent union things nowadays that makes them more comparable to the early days. Working to improve conditions and lowering the workweek and such. I think one thing that happened to unions in the 70’s or so was getting more into bookoo overtime and limiting membership as union jobs were better. This I think lead to their downfall in the 80’s. Working conditions and reducing work time should be the top of the agenda. Breaks. Time to think and being able to work at an enjoyable pace. Anyway for me and my admittedly skewed view of anti-work its about maximizing doing things based on deciding to do them rather than having to do them. Agency over authoritarianism.

          I encourage you to inspect the community’s icon.

          if I did not otherwise have to work I would love to just clean up around my condo and neighborhood more regularly and …

          So then this isn’t the community for you, yes?
