The mod who came on was a terrible choic of who to represent the movement as she just made it seem like people were lazy, and it basically discredited the actual labor reformists in the community. And then with her being trans it led to a shitstorm of transphobic hate and it is honestly really clear if you look at how much hateful and anti trans comments you see in this video’s feed.

    I've always loved the bit about "I want to teach philosophy". Philosophy is primarily only taught at college, and to become a college professor takes an immense amount of work, let alone all the teaching, grading, and research you're required to do once you actually get the position.

    • @kirbya9545
      @kirbya9545 6 місяців тому

      That’s the problem. It shouldn’t take work to be a college professor to pursue your dream of teaching people the correct way of thinking. Why should I have to give up 4 years of my life just to pursue my dream? It’s just capitalist bs to water down the actual free thinkers because the big heads of governments don’t want us wage slave liberators to influence the next generation, because they know we will not fall for their college “preparation” trap. This goes for all professors. The idea that you have to taught a premade set of beliefs to teach is straight up fascism. College must be abolished. /s

      The people with the most clout and loudest voice in places like that are usually the ones that have literally nothing else going on in their lives. That Doreen guy was one of the oldest mods because he has all the time in the world to just mod his subreddit. I modded a forum when I was a teenager, eventually I went to college and had to stop because I didn't have time anymore to dedicate to sitting around deleting spam. I guarantee Doreen has accomplished nothing else in his life other than moderating a subreddit that blew up, so I bet he demanded to be the one to go on TV - rather than, as you say, someone with an actual job and life experience to talk about how companies mistreat workers.

      It happened in r/antiwork too, when the mods began banning users for mentioning the trans mod’s raype allegations, claiming they were doing it all to stop “”transsphobia”” and that the rumors were the fault of brigades and evil trolls.

    In New Zealand decades ago, a large group of hippies bought some land so they could just live off the land and not work (instead grow their veges etc so they weren't forced to work for an employer). It was a disaster because the hippies didn't want to work in the vegetable garden or cook so nothing got done. Turns out not doing any work results in nothing being done.

    • @PineappleDealer37

      I think the idea of "Not working" is more of the idea that you should be doing what you love. "If you get a job you love you'll never have to work again." Philosophy. If the hippies dream was to live of the land then more power to them, but they should have actually did care for that land and not sit down and not do that.

      I got banned for calling someone the N word because at the time I believed I was trans and fought against the "superstraights" who I was misled into believing they were transphobes. I now realize that I'm not trans and that I'm one of these people (even if their communities were destroyed) due to seeing what bottom surgeries and most trans people look like. In retrospect, I'm super glad I got banned from Reddit because it got me out of the echo chamber, especially since my IP address was perma banned, meaning I could never come back, meaning I was permanently out of the echo chamber.

    I remember lurking around the sub when I was working a shitty job at a movie theater with low hours, low pay, and a whole lot of bullshit. I fully support work reform ideas like providing better benefits, the 4-day workweek, etc. But I really did start to realize that a good portion of the subreddit was karma whoring and NEET people who wanted to justify their laziness. I hate that the subreddit has tarnished what was originally a pretty good thing. I think people in the US (as well as other countries) worship work culture too much to the point where it becomes unhealthy. Antiwork started as something against that. It reminded people that there was more to life than working a shitty job for jackshit pay and that "things are worse in other countries" isn't a good excuse. Sure, could be worse but I don't think Americans are "spoiled" just because they want better pay and management that doesn't use them as a step ladder. Of course, Reddit has to ruin everything it touches one way or another

    • @thegrapethief5514
      @thegrapethief5514 2 роки тому +54

      I am absolutely in support of work reform. But one thing I’ve learned is that you can’t just jump the shark and state your eventual goals at the very beginning. Prime example: Abraham Lincoln. Always had the plans for abolition and civil rights in mind, but didn’t say them outright until the social climate was ready. Be like a sniper in the bushes. Move slowly, advancing towards your goals with mind to your surroundings, but don’t waste it all trying to accomplish everything immediately. Accomplishing it later is better than never accomplishing it. Now r/antiwork was a completely different story. The idea that people shouldn’t work is wishful thinking at best and malicious delusion at worst. I’ve seen people in this comment section say that laborious jobs should be automated. This is a terrible idea that every fat cat billionaire would leap on if they had the chance, so the fact that the reformers themselves are pushing it is hilarious to me. That would deprive the working class of all its power over the wealthy. Labor unions can work because businesses can’t just do that. You can get better workers’ rights because you work in those conditions and exploit your hold over your employers. Having humans in manual jobs be replaced by robots is a dystopian idea for a reason. It’s the most power we have over the upper class, and no one but a fool would sacrifice it for convenience. What we should do instead is find ways to make these jobs safer, to incorporate more skills into them, change it from a menial, mindless slog to one where people can exercise some talent. Of course, benefits, higher pay, more reasonable hours, better vacation time, pensions, should all be ideas we should be pushing forward.
      I do agree that work culture has warped from “we’re WILLING to work harder than anyone else because we find virtue in hard work and effort” to “everyone should work as hard as they can or else.” There’s a study I saw conducted by a preschool that tested whether positive or negative reinforcement was more effective in adults. Surprisingly, contrary to popular belief, the study found that positive reinforcement is far more effective than negative reinforcement. The test revolved around what would better encourage parents to pick up their children at a time better for the staff. The first test was where the preschool announced that if parents were late to pick up their children, they’d have to pay a fee. This actually resulted in either mostly the same or even slightly less parents picking their children up at the right time. The second test was where they changed their policy and announced that if parents were early to pick up their children, the child would receive a cookie. Many more parents picked up their children on time than both before the policy changes and while the first one was implemented because the child gave positive feedback to their parents, and the parents were more willing to come for their child to receive a reward than they were to avoid a consequence. The point I’m making is that I think that benefits and positive reward for good work ethic would actually be more effective at generating better work ethic.
      But you may be wondering why I framed my argument as to how it would benefit employers. Well, you want to get employers on your side or at least less opposed to these ideas, so telling them the positive impact these policy changes would have for them will be more effective than brute forcing it. The best way to defeat an enemy is to 1. not make an enemy of them in the first place, or 2. get them on your side. If we can frame our arguments this way and find solutions that produce positive outcomes for both parties, we will accomplish far more than by simply looking for what benefits one party the most. Well, that’s enough rambling from me.

      @@thegrapethief5514 Call me cynical, but I don't trust corporations to act buddy-buddy with labor reformists. Hell, I just watched the 5th anti-union training video at my job this year. Maybe in smaller businesses change can come around faster, but larger companies are bogged down with shitloads of bureaucracy and penny-pinching. Just look at the countless labor strikes in the past 20 years. The only reason companies actually bothered to do something (even if it was just for PR) was because the lack of labor was directly cutting into their bottom line. Many companies will just take a signed petition and plop it into a shredder while claiming "we'll work on it."
      Sadly though, it's becoming more and more apparent that low labor jobs are being replaced by robots. Why wouldn't they be? Robots don't get sick, they don't need lunches, and the cost of maintenance is usually cheaper than paying employees for the output of productivity. Sooner or later though, the 1% are gonna realize that there is no more middle class to buy their products. Therefore, they'll have to either find another way to make money or actually pay attention to the shrinking middle class.

      @@ethereal231 neither do I. But it’s not like brute forcing it is going to work either. Way I see it, they’re only going to do the bare minimum and try to keep their profits at maximum, so really the only way to convince them to do anything is to either crack down super hard, which is becoming harder to do with corps like Disney and Amazon, or speak to them in a language they understand, which is profits. They’re obviously never going to willingly change their policies, but they’ll at least be more open to the idea once they’re under intense pressure if they think they can get out of it with as much money as possible.
      I actually don’t see that happening too much. What I DO see happening is low end jobs being outsourced to countries like China and Vietnam. Because what’s even cheaper than paying to make or maintain robots? Using actual slaves, or people paid so little they might as well be slaves. And when you have a population as big as China, replacing an injured or dead worker is extremely easy. I’m not an economist, so I’m not going to make any crazy predictions, but maybe this Amazon union is a sign of something. I’d simply prefer to remain hopeful and focus on the possibility for positive change instead of just letting things happen. I find cynicism to be a boring outlook on life, so pardon me if I seem a little too hopeful. I just don’t see the point in talking about problems without thinking of solutions.

I get working on tangible hobbies that require effort and skill but they just straight up only really want hedonistic activities and habits, not many are saying "I would like an economy where I have the financial mobility and freedom to work as an independent craftsman instead of selling my soul to a company" or "I'd love to work in some form of food service if only it had fair pay and less habitually stressful conditions as well as management backing up employees against customer abuse". They just want to sit around and play vidya while eating whatever weeb snack they've decided on today.

People who are contributing hard to society and can’t even get decent healthcare without crippling them financially. I agree with people getting better compensation for their work, whether it be salary or at the very least healthcare. However, I do not support these groups of people that think them working 10 hours a week entitles them to 60k a year. Or that working in general shouldn’t be a thing and that they deserve a crap ton of money for being on their butts all day. Like I said, the idea is good, they just had the wrong people representing it.

      For example, if I wanted to discredit Pro-choicers I would make an account on a pro choice forum with views saying “we should be able to kill children after they’re born as long as it’s 24hr after birth” and then some one who is pro life can screen shot it and say “see they literally want to murder children” bc making people on the fence think they’re crazy is easier than me trying to make them see eye to eye with me.
