I am very onboard with many things discussed on this subreddit. But I have to stop and question the name of it.
Antiwork, for those unfamiliar, can allude to the user base being against working in general and many other gross assumptions by some people.
Historically movements like antiabortion changed their name to pro life. Why? Because human psychology and branding.
Do you think we are doing ourselves a disservice by allowing bad actors to use the subs name – out of context – to present our members and posts as being against working in general?
I think we have to a certain extent. But what can we do?
I’m not sure, but it’s something I’ve been thinking about a lot. So I would like to open this discussion to all.
Do we need to employ some of the rhetorical strategies and branding to get our message across clearly? Or is it just too late at this point.
Would love to hear your thoughts.
As always, fight for your rights! But let’s also acknowledge this is a hard fight – I think it’s worth a discussion. <3
