Antiwork

So on April 27th I accepted a new position within my company. I signed the contract to start on May 15th. I instantly let my horrible manager know to which she said, “oh I didn’t approve that date”. I didn’t do anything because I literally signed a contract for the new job an a good bit more money. Current manager just told me my new start date will be June 1st. She worked with HR without consulting or including me to get them to push back my leaving date. New manager is great but he can’t fight this. She told me on a team meeting in front of all my coworkers. These two extra weeks are going to be the old pay rate, she literally is robbing me of money and time to learn my new role. I am so livid and can’t do anything other than be nice. But…

But how the fuck would America even have a revolution like other countries? Millions of people trying to gather outside the capital and storming it would be met with force. If we tried organizing online we would be labeled domestic terrorists. So seriously, until the day the entire country literally takes the capital head on like a swarm of ants, I don't see how anything could be done.

I feel like I'm going to get a lot of hate for asking since I've commented here before, but I want to get a better understanding. ​ What is r/Antiwork about to you and has what it is (as far as foundational principles) changed since its inception? Why put time and energy into increasing workers' pay instead of focusing on making more yourself? Is it more about helping other people than it is increasing pay? Like I said, I'm expecting to get hate for asking but I'm hoping that a few people can help me get an understanding of this and help me see it the way you guys do because I'm sure my current understanding is wrong. I know another huge part is working conditions, so that could be substituted into question #2 as well.
