Wasn’t r/antiwork supposed to be the least bad one of all these wannabe labour subs when the whole moderator fiasco happened? And now they’re straight-up calling Xiaohongshu a far-right source.
The fiasco was the hard-end-full-stop-crib-death of antiwork's nascent class-consciousness. If it was ever something (and it felt like it was) It hasn't been anything since.
That sort of thing is why I'm a Marxist-Leninist. I can't help but think it could've been avoided if the sub staff were practicing democratic centralism and beholden to decisions like "no, don't half-ass an interview with hostile corporate media."
In a way it was good for me. I may be grasping at ways to be positive about it, but it was critically informative for me to see the lengths the caps will go to defend their message and crush solidarity to the point where they'll crush even small-barely-even-a-thing's like /r/antiwork. The knowledge of the ubiquitity of their (cap's) influence, how much they have and how fara reach was terrifying, but somehow also comforting... seeing how how afraid they actually are that people will wake up even a little bit kinna gives me hope that it is easier than i think it is to wake them
(It was never anything)
