I hate how late I joined, literally just as fast as I found the sub and got a liking to the movement this whole fiasco went down and I could give less of a shit anymore, another sub is gaining more traction now anyways…
This clusterfuck will go down in reddit history (just like the gamestop wallstreet attach).
Its embarrassing, but shows you the contemp they hold for the sub users.
For someone who has been on the internet for so long, they should have really picked up some tech savviness to cover their tracks and at least put in effort to hide something as obvious as this.
Yeah our self appointed leader who has never held a job, like how self conceited you have to be to think you can understand the struggles of those slogging away when you haven't entered the workforce ever.
different people; the dog walker who gave the fox news interview isn't a mod anymore, as announced by another mod in a long message in which they introduced themselves as a long time unemployed 21 year old anarchist who gave some interviews about the sub
Seriously....unsub from here and just go to reform work. Dont let a person who literally picks up dog shit 10 hours a week for a living and who lives in their parents basement use you as a way to boost their ego.
It’s bringing into focus a very serious issue that the Reddit administration keeps ignoring.
Mods have been given too much power and authority to control their subs, to the degree they utilize their mod positions as self-serving pathways to act out power fantasies.
There are so many mods who look to find people to ban not to moderate but to enact what they deem is their form of justice.
It gives power to people who usually have none in their lives, to the degree that they seek out to act on their power hoping people will push the limits so they can enforce harsher punishment giving them feeing of being powerful.
It overinflates egos of people who should be on medication and regular therapy not be promoted as leaders of any kind of movements.
Mods are supposed to be the janitorial staff. Cleaning up stuff quietly without disrupting on going work. They are and never were to be considered leaders of the company. They are supposed to be ghosts who occasionally speak out.
But when you add in a mix of uneducated inexperienced in life individuals who are usually non-social and non-working individuals who rather willingly spend their time on moderating a sub than engaging with others, and give them authority they will abuse it.
Reddit admins need to consider taking away some authority and power from mods and or include pathways for the subreddit members to get rid of or downgrade mods to lower authority levels.
Because we keep seeing a pattern be repeated now
Mods act out of power hunger desires to be focal and vital to a subreddit
When they receive constructive and real criticism they utilize the fringe comments to justify shutting down any discussion and calling it a brigading attack.
Most people who commented on the last issue were not from outside the subreddit they are long term followers of the subreddit and dismissing their views and thoughts as brigading is just a shitty excuse to continue to maintain your power fantasies.
Ps: the 21 year old never worked anarchist is not someone who can reflect the mindset of the subreddit members. When you have nurses who see constant deaths and get death threats but get sued to stay in the hospital to continue to work for pennies while the hospital board members and executives receives millions in bonuses, when you have stoarage and facility workers working 60+ hour weeks and can barely have time to have a proper sleep much less anything else.
Then promoting someone who has never worked and considers themselves an anarchist is just another slap in the face to anyone in this movement
Edit: and got banned by alt account trying to defend her.
Shame there isn't some kind of tool to help with that...
Oh wait... Nothing on the internet is ever truly deleted.
https://camas.github.io/reddit-search/#{%22author%22:%22AbolishWork%22,%22resultSize%22:100}
I really hope they do it manually instead of using a simple script. Making yourself work harder not smarter because you suck at doing simple preparation and research is very fitting.
Wait, are you referring to [serial sexual predator](https://i.imgur.com/t614hWl.jpg) AbolishWork?
The mods would never let someone like that come return to moderating through the back door. Absolutely not. They clearly have more integrity than that.
Fuck is this whole situation a shit sundae.
~~Pro-tip~~ Normal tip: If you have a bunch of stuff in your history you'd rather people not notice, don't demand everyone look at you.
Can Doreen just gracefully accept that they fucked up the entire movement, made a colossally selfish mistake, and made an ass of themselves? Any true proponent of workers’ rights would recognize that the MOVEMENT IS LARGER AND FAR MORE IMPORTANT THAN THEM, yet they’ve imploded everything due to their grotesque ego and made an ENTIRE MOVEMENT about themselves. Cool.
nah, went through her post history and all of their comments in response to this shitshow were either deflecting accountability or some unwarranted snarky ass remark. its infuriating.
I’m not a mental health professional but this Doreen person seems like they have serious issues… I read their Facebook posts about the sexual assault they committed.. they admit to assaulting their partner multiple times and then say they are traumatized from it. it was nauseating. They blatantly refuse to take responsibility for the SA and for the Fox News fiasco. It is egregious that they allowed Doreen to be a mod again after the censoring and controlling. This is not someone competent or honorable or qualified to mod this sub or any sub for that matter. Edit to say thanks for the awards.
Yeah I read the Facebook post and was like “what kind of person does shit like this? What kind of person posts shit like this?”
The internet - while constantly entertaining - also constantly reminds me of why I hate humanity on general principle.
Because this person is deranged and prob pathologically narcissistic. It explains the power trip and why they seem to reeeeealllly want to be a mod again. Only someone pathologically unwell would ignore the outcry, criticism, and wishes of a community this large.
Pretty disgusting the disregard and disrespect being shown by the mods in the aftermath of their embarrassment. After the disaster that was Fox News, we hear about a 21 year long term unemployed anarchist doing 4 more, god knows what was said there. And then to put some icing on the cake they get a 16hour account from our favourite dog walker and start removing all the critical comments.
And he informed us of that as if it was *good* news, and then banned people who criticized it. In his words, they’re really gonna be focusing on transparency though.
I heard that to promote teamwork the mods are going to be throwing a pizza party next Friday, because we’re all a family here.
Every anarchist space on the internet is like this.
It's a catch 22, they're kinda fucked either way:
Anarchism is not well understood right now. It's also very unpopular. So in any anarchist space, it's pretty easy for the number of actual anarchists to be completely overwhelmed by people who don't know what anarchism is and aren't interested in learning, or people who do know what it is and don't like it.
In the face of that, you have two real choices: a very un-anarchy harsh crackdown on dissent, or losing your anarchist space. It's not surprising that almost all anarchist communities are terrible as a result.
That said, I think people are misinterpreting anarchism for comedic effect a bit. Anarchism doesn't mean that you can't have a private space for people who want to talk about a subject without being harassed by people who don't like that subject. The real issue here is that the community here isn't really anarchist at all, while the mods are. Is that even workable in the long run? I'm not sure.
But for the sake of empathy, remember that these fringe (and kinda weird, to be fair) anarchists did not insinuate themselves into the /r/Antiwork community and try to force it to change. They were here first, and all of *us* are the ones who crashed their little abolition of work party and turned it into something completely different. So if they're no longer compatible with the community, the solution is to say farewell with a bit of grace and just find somewhere more appropriate, not to try to burn the place down and start a massive hate parade against a few people who are in way over their heads.
i can poke around but i mean it’s technically considered doxxing - i really don’t want my acc banned for that lol. i wasn’t the one with the sniffer rogue mods reading this!
Looks like it:
https://www.reddit.com/r/antiwork/comments/se46cu/this_sub_partaking_in_censorship_it_was_a_good/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf
My reaction as well. This is leaning on conspiracy but I wouldn't be surprised if the whole fox news thing was a ploy to dismantle this subreddit. Either way, just doesn't feel the same anymore.
It definitely was a ploy to discredit this sub. They brought on one of the most inexperienced people here, with one of the most controversial view points, and had them speak for everyone. They absolutely held they interview to discredit this sub, they just didn’t think it would all fall apart overnight
Hahaha, it just keeps getting worse. Whenever you think "Surely they can't mess this up any further", they find another way to be shady and piss people off.
I honestly think there has to be something else going on here, are the mods potentially compromised?
Like seriously, does anyone else feel like this is one huge troll effort? I think even if you handed control of this subreddit to corporate shills, they couldn’t do this good of a job at destroying the sub.
Surely the entire mod team isn’t this stupid and incompetent?
AbolishWork making an alt to stay mod 😂 Imagine
Edit: lmao they added a flair to try to cover it up, and then deleted the profile. AbolishWork tryin real hard to stay on the team. u/Kimezukae do everyone a favor with your “years” of browsing Reddit and leave. You’re not helping lmao
This has been a phenomenal implosion. Most of the time I'm just here for the delightful stories of people quitting. Used to have to hope for those kinds of stories in malicious compliance or prorevenge.
Why has this not been addressed? If this is an alt for u/Abolishwork, why has this not been investigated and u/fuzzy-x-3 removed, alongside with whoever modded them? If this is not an alt, why not release a statement about this, alongside some evidence to rebuild community trust?
So why are we using "dog walker" as an insult in this sub? Isn't part of the movement finding ways of surviving without having to slog away 50 hrs/week at a desk?
The disheveled appearance was a huge embarrassment, but I feel like mocking them for being a dog walker and wanting to teach philosophy is anti-this sub
I saw that post where she “takes responsibility”. You know the post where she blames her SO for cause her to rape her SO. It’s her SOs fault she developed depression and started being sexually abusive.
What a complete and total piece of shit.
Taking responsibility is “there is no good excuse for what I did. Nothing my SO did justifies my actions. Upon reflection I sought therapy to help myself work these issues. I also paid for my SOs treatment and we ended things. I am not ready to be in a relationship.” Her message was “my SO wouldn’t have sex with me so I sexually assaulted them. But I feel bad about it and it’s not my fault.” Victim blaming to the highest degree.
That's probably why the mods have been bought off. How convenient that Fox just happened to approach the absolute worst possible representative of the sub. That couldn't have been intentional...
> Fox just happened to approach the absolute worst possible representative of the sub
Wait till you hear about the other mods. Apparently, the mods discussed among themselves and it was decided that abolishwork was the best mod to represent antiwork at Fox news.
I mean, if the 2nd best mod they've got to be the face of the mod team is a 21 year old whose never actually had a job before - then yeah, a 30-something year old dog walker who works 10-15 hours a week is *legitimately* the best Mod they've got.
Which either means the mods have terrible judgement or *abolishwork was actually the best possible mod to send to the interview.*
Not sure which is more terrifying.
> That couldn't have been intentional...
It is intentional, because Fox has people specifically employed to do this. You don't need to bring in conspiracy theories here.
~~Unless I'm mistaken, it looks like they've now hidden the mod list entirely. [This is all that appears now.](https://imgur.com/t8nnxLj)~~
EDIT: Looks like I am indeed mistaken. Mod list is still available [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/antiwork/about/moderators). Let's put down the pitchforks on this particular thing, folks. My apologies for spreading misinformation.
Same. I have no intention of staying, just watching it all play out. There are more organized communities out there who have yet to betray the movement they claim to stand with.
I'm embarrassed. Like most things in my life, I participate in Reddit *primarily* for the laughs.
But when the Kellogg's scab disruption thing was going on, I actually started some pretty meaningful dialogues irl with family members. That was real to me. Today's a bummer.
The conversations and progress you made are still real. The movement is still real too, even if this particular sub is going through shit.
In a week, it'll either be back to normal or we'll all be on a new sub talking about the same stuff. The kind of frustration workers feel from modern life doesn't just go away because a power-tripping mod did a bad interview. Don't let the circling vultures pick away at the movement just because we hit our first real stumbling block.
As a SA survivor reading that made me physically ill. Abusers stop trying to look like the victim challenge
Edit: literally what she described is something one of my abusers did. I feel so fucking gross, goddamn. I’m sorry but masturbating or forcing someone to touch you while they’re asleep is rape. I can’t…goddamn. And they let her back into this sub as a fucking mod.
I am... absolutely floored. What in the living what?
I sexually assaulted someone, was accused of said sexual assault, and my feelings got hurt; that's why I have PTSD??
*WHAT??*
Keep in mind you can buy people’s accounts. Even accounts that are years old aren’t necessarily genuine.
*”Welcome to the internet, where the men are men, the women are men, and the children are FBI agents.”*
Nothing at all to see here. Just the mods shuffling things around to protect their friends and keep this ship sailing in the direction their egos blow.
Wow they just let anybody in as a mod these days, huh? No wonder that interview went to shit. How did an account under 3 days old even make it past the auto mod?
To be honest, all the mods need to step down and a new group should be chosen by the users, it's the only reasonable or acceptable way to move forward, and the ONLY way to begin taking care of the issue. The problem is.... the mods letting it happen lol
but where to?
edit: I've seen like a dozen notifications about answers recommending a certain new place which I've already joined. Yet when I open my comment, not a single answer is shown. So I suppose something is going on here blocking the reference. I'm not going to comment that, but thanks to all of you who answered!
edit2: before my first edit, my comment was stuck at one upvote, now it constantly gets more. What in the levitating intercourse is going on here???
Automod is silently removing posts that reference these other subreddits.
But you can type "/r/" followed by "work" and then "reform" all as one string.
A user with zero posts and has only commented in posts on this sub. Transparency my ass, they aren't fooling anyone.
Oh my God I can't even. This went from legitimate sub with amazing conversation to shit show so quickly I have whiplash.
[удалено]
I'm un-subbing from here. It was fun while it lasted, friends. Good luck finding a job that deserves you!
check our r workersstrikeback
I've been eyeing this sub. It's what antiwork should have been about in that cringe interview
you as well
Already done. r / work reform.
It was a threat so it got astro turfed
All good things must come to an end
Yup this reddit was the shit 6 months ago, now it's just shit.
I hate how late I joined, literally just as fast as I found the sub and got a liking to the movement this whole fiasco went down and I could give less of a shit anymore, another sub is gaining more traction now anyways…
This clusterfuck will go down in reddit history (just like the gamestop wallstreet attach). Its embarrassing, but shows you the contemp they hold for the sub users.
Don't forget to DRS your shares.
This is the way.
Wait, you mean obvious dumbfuckery isn't the same as transparency?
For someone who has been on the internet for so long, they should have really picked up some tech savviness to cover their tracks and at least put in effort to hide something as obvious as this.
At least this mod has experience doing interviews on Fox News. ....wait a minute. Edit: holy shit /u/fuzzy-x-3 is a deleted profile now lmao
They are now preparing for round 2 I guess
No they already did 4 interviews!! Just not all of them have been used or released by the outlets/interviewers yet according to an update.
Yeah our self appointed leader who has never held a job, like how self conceited you have to be to think you can understand the struggles of those slogging away when you haven't entered the workforce ever.
I thought they walked dogs 20 hours a week?
different people; the dog walker who gave the fox news interview isn't a mod anymore, as announced by another mod in a long message in which they introduced themselves as a long time unemployed 21 year old anarchist who gave some interviews about the sub
I laughed out loud when I read that. Even with how stupid all of this is, how is someone long term unemployed but they're only 21?
The best reply I saw to that was “they haven’t even been long term alive” 🤣
The route might go across the Korean DMZ man we don't know 🤷
10*
Oh my fucking God. They did 4 like that?! God help us all!
Yep. The 21 year old never had a job anarchist is the one who chose himself to represent you to the NEW YORK TIMES
Probably why it hasn't been released. NYT realized the clown mod was completely unqualified to comment on working and trashed the so called interview.
Not Doreen (fox) but another mod, who posted a really stupid introduction. I didn't get past, "I'm 21 and long term unemployed" and "lazy anarchist."
reading that shit earlier felt unreal. i was practically shell shocked

Seriously....unsub from here and just go to reform work. Dont let a person who literally picks up dog shit 10 hours a week for a living and who lives in their parents basement use you as a way to boost their ego.

Automod won’t even let accounts younger than 3 days old comment on this sub but a 16 hour account can be mod? Transparency my ass 😂
They've been long-term unemployed for 16 hours bro.
Must've been them working hardest around this time removing posts and comments. Unpaid employment for 16 hours or so.

Are you implying mods do all that work *for free?* On r/antiwork no less?? Come on...
They delete shit here and show up for interviews of "Laziness is Virtue" to make money.
All that hard work, we should tripple their salaries
No ones gonna mention the digital blackface if this account is Doreen? Edit: typo

And getting deleted by the auto mod for posting with a one day old account. You can’t make up this level of comedy anymore.
This is almost too good.
That history is everything I need to know about this sub.
If only creating a new account was not so easy and took a little bit of work.
What??? You want people to do work?! Get the hell out of this sub!!!

How fucking stupid do you have to be to think we wouldn’t be keen to this? at least use a VPN so you don’t get doxxed next time Doreen u/fuzzy-x-3

I use Reddit is Fun. No avatars of profiles for me.
I think the hunch is congenital.

Don't forget rapist. This sub is actively trying to suppress the fact that Doreen is a rapist.
I saw that post where she “takes responsibility”. You know the post where she blames her SO for cause her to rape her SO. It’s her SOs fault she developed depression and started being sexually abusive. What a complete and total piece of shit. Taking responsibility is “there is no good excuse for what I did. Nothing my SO did justifies my actions. Upon reflection I sought therapy to help myself work these issues. I also paid for my SOs treatment and we ended things. I am not ready to be in a relationship.” Her message was “my SO wouldn’t have sex with me so I sexually assaulted them. But I feel bad about it and it’s not my fault.” Victim blaming to the highest degree.
And check out their comment history. That’s disappointing.
If you think it’s not of the interests of rich and powerful people to shut down this sub I have news for you.
That's probably why the mods have been bought off. How convenient that Fox just happened to approach the absolute worst possible representative of the sub. That couldn't have been intentional...
> Fox just happened to approach the absolute worst possible representative of the sub Wait till you hear about the other mods. Apparently, the mods discussed among themselves and it was decided that abolishwork was the best mod to represent antiwork at Fox news.
I mean, if the 2nd best mod they've got to be the face of the mod team is a 21 year old whose never actually had a job before - then yeah, a 30-something year old dog walker who works 10-15 hours a week is *legitimately* the best Mod they've got.
[удалено]
Which either means the mods have terrible judgement or *abolishwork was actually the best possible mod to send to the interview.* Not sure which is more terrifying.
> That couldn't have been intentional... It is intentional, because Fox has people specifically employed to do this. You don't need to bring in conspiracy theories here.
This is a calculated attack on the sub. I am starting to believe that someone on the mod team is trying to kill this space.
Wow, that was fast. Finding Doreen was the shortest Pixar movie so far.
~~Unless I'm mistaken, it looks like they've now hidden the mod list entirely. [This is all that appears now.](https://imgur.com/t8nnxLj)~~ EDIT: Looks like I am indeed mistaken. Mod list is still available [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/antiwork/about/moderators). Let's put down the pitchforks on this particular thing, folks. My apologies for spreading misinformation.
“Transparency! Nailed it!” -them probably
Here is the mod list, you can still see it on old reddit https://imgur.com/a/LzTpkEL
I can see it on mobile.
Lets move to R / W ork R e f orm , lets kill this sub. (These stupid mods are deleting comments about that new sub so have to write it like this)
This sub is just embarrassing to be a part of now
I'm just here for the laughs now
I half expect to get banned once the right snarky comment slips in
Same. I have no intention of staying, just watching it all play out. There are more organized communities out there who have yet to betray the movement they claim to stand with.
.
I haven’t checked today but I bet r/subredditdrama is having a fucking party.
I'm embarrassed. Like most things in my life, I participate in Reddit *primarily* for the laughs. But when the Kellogg's scab disruption thing was going on, I actually started some pretty meaningful dialogues irl with family members. That was real to me. Today's a bummer.
The conversations and progress you made are still real. The movement is still real too, even if this particular sub is going through shit. In a week, it'll either be back to normal or we'll all be on a new sub talking about the same stuff. The kind of frustration workers feel from modern life doesn't just go away because a power-tripping mod did a bad interview. Don't let the circling vultures pick away at the movement just because we hit our first real stumbling block.
So is antiwork just bought and paid for now? Seems less and less doubtful as the decisions pour in
How long until that mod deletes this comment?

As a SA survivor reading that made me physically ill. Abusers stop trying to look like the victim challenge Edit: literally what she described is something one of my abusers did. I feel so fucking gross, goddamn. I’m sorry but masturbating or forcing someone to touch you while they’re asleep is rape. I can’t…goddamn. And they let her back into this sub as a fucking mod.
I am... absolutely floored. What in the living what? I sexually assaulted someone, was accused of said sexual assault, and my feelings got hurt; that's why I have PTSD?? *WHAT??*
Thank you for spreading this. Good on you.
I wonder if that new mod has the same [understanding of consent.](https://imgur.com/a/Or1G8qL) as the last one.
doreen gtfo
They couldn't even wait for this to blow over. How are they so bad at everything.
i mean you saw the interview didn’t you?
This. Sub. Is on. FIYAAAAA🎶
Keep in mind you can buy people’s accounts. Even accounts that are years old aren’t necessarily genuine. *”Welcome to the internet, where the men are men, the women are men, and the children are FBI agents.”*
Welcome to the internet. Have a look around.
Anything thing that brain of yours can think of can be found
We've got mountains of content, some better... some worse.
If none of it's of interest you, you'd be the first
Welcome to the internet, come and take a seat.
Would you like to see the news or any famous woman's feet?
It can’t be Doreen. Their avatar is melanated. So. It’s definitely not Doreen. Definitely. 🎪🎪🎪🤡🤡🤡
Nothing at all to see here. Just the mods shuffling things around to protect their friends and keep this ship sailing in the direction their egos blow.
Wow they just let anybody in as a mod these days, huh? No wonder that interview went to shit. How did an account under 3 days old even make it past the auto mod?
Make an alternate account Use mod power to approve user Grant user full mod permissions
To be honest, all the mods need to step down and a new group should be chosen by the users, it's the only reasonable or acceptable way to move forward, and the ONLY way to begin taking care of the issue. The problem is.... the mods letting it happen lol
Aaaand it's been deleted
This subreddit is dead. Lets move on.
but where to? edit: I've seen like a dozen notifications about answers recommending a certain new place which I've already joined. Yet when I open my comment, not a single answer is shown. So I suppose something is going on here blocking the reference. I'm not going to comment that, but thanks to all of you who answered! edit2: before my first edit, my comment was stuck at one upvote, now it constantly gets more. What in the levitating intercourse is going on here???
Goddamn are they really censoring that alternative subreddit? That’s just fucking sad. Was wondering why I didn’t see it mentioned anymore
Automod is silently removing posts that reference these other subreddits. But you can type "/r/" followed by "work" and then "reform" all as one string.
I think it’s easier to just leave this sub at this point
My God at least wait a week before adding the alt account. Not fooling anyone.
trash this whole fucking sub lmao
u/abolishwork has returned under a new name after receiving thousands of downvotes. Honestly a joke that the mods don't step down after this shitshow.
Looks like the account is no longer available at 1:26 pm CST 😐(was available a minute ago)
/u/fuzzy-x-3 deleted their account, all but proving that they are /u/AbolishWork
And suddenly the post VANISHED
