AntiWork is an online community on Reddit dedicated to exposing the poor conditions of workers, promoting labor union consciousness.[1] Despite its name, it is not opposed to work in general, rather it's opposed to the current state of work under neoliberal capitalism.
From a marxist perspective, AntiWork a valuable space for agitating the working class, but is currently insufficient in educating them in revolutionary and socialist thought, which could help to liberate the workers from their conditions in more concrete terms. (rather than winning small concessions within the capitalist system)
Some moderators of AntiWork have made stances against Marxism-Leninism on the basis of so-called “authoritarianism.”[2] This utopian notion of authoritarianism is criticized by Engel’s On Authority.
