What it’s like to be mega-cancelled. From NickelthroweR at theburningplatform.com:
I was taking a break from cutting firewood and I sat down at my computer to see if anyone had responded to my post over at r/antiwork. I’m not a popular guy over at r/antiwork and my comments usually get downvoted into the negative. But, this was my first ever post over at the site and I was curious as to what the 4 or 5 commenters would have to say about what I had written but it wasn’t 4 or 5 commenters. I looked at the numbers in disbelief and then I looked again and that was when I felt the first twinge of terror.
For those of you that do not know, r/antiwork is a forum populated by fierce/brave Communists that wish to destroy Capitalism so that they can all receive UBI so that they can focus on being Influencers, Podcasters and YouTubers. After all, they did figure out that work is difficult, and they most certainly want to share that philosophy with everyone so as to justify their lifetime free ride of goods and services that are OWED to them.
A popular topic over at r/antiwork is the job interview process. I understand the frustration of interviewing in a bureaucratic hyper-regulated system can cause a lot of anger but the corporation has boxes that it must check in the hiring process or be sued into oblivion. You’ve got to interview every single minority group, the alphabet people, radical feminists, etc, even if you’ve already decided on promoting someone in-house. That doesn’t matter, HR still has to pretend as the bureauracy demands that it go through the motions. The Maoists over at r/antiwork do not understand that it is their own woke idealogy causing these problems but to them, it just looks like malice from an evil corporation.
