I think this whole situation came about because the original user base of anti work wasn’t about workers rights or work reform. But it was quite literally against working at all. So you have all these regular people joining last year who have very different ideas than the mods who founded it.

It’s like the split between “defund the police” vs “reform the police”. People will tell you it was never about totally removing the police entirely but there are certainly people who believe the statements to their most literal meanings.
