Hello r/antiwork community,
I'm a long-time lurker here, and to be clear, I’m a Marxist myself.
For quite some time, I've been a member of a pretty large Libertarian Facebook group with the aim of fostering open dialogue, challenging preconceived notions, and bridging ideological gaps (and have been able to change some minds), and of course the occasional trolling.
An interesting “opportunity” has presented itself. The admin of this Libertarian group has expressed an interest in organizing a live debate with a mod from r/antiwork.
The purpose of the debate would be to discuss our respective views on work, labor rights, and economic systems, among other related topics.
Ideally, we would love to have a mod represent the r/antiwork community, since that was the request of the libertarian group admin (and given their deep understanding of our principles and issues). However, if the mods aren't interested or available, the invitation is open to any member of our community who feels confident in their public speaking skills and grasp of antiwork philosophies.
We have had some leftists show interest in participating, but are understandably hesitant due to the largely one-sided audience, so I also wanted to bring this up here to help balance the audience, ensuring a fair representation of perspectives and a more constructive debate.
Please comment or send me a DM if you're interested, or if you have any suggestions on how we should proceed. The date of the debate is flexible.
EDIT: FORGOT TO ADD THIS IS A PAID GIG. Not sure how much, the admin will pay whoever accepts to debate.
