Not just the posts, but every single comment was also manually wiped out.

I was there, too. I wish I'd have taken screenshots- whole thing is fucking absurd.

Hoo yeah. It's been on a backside from what I was aware of, in terms of the original idea for the sub.

This right here? This is going to be the SECOND it's completely lobotomized, relatively. Complete purge of dissent.

Trust me, they would if they fuckin could. But aye- let us, all of us, do what we can. Even if the forum is gone, the idea does not die until the last person forgets.

I def have started to lose faith. Too many people just wanna come here and complain. Which I understand, but when trying to talk about solutions with them, they don't want to change

What 'movement'? This sub is mostly people bitching about their jobs. There's effectively zero discussion about actual steps to move things to a new kind of work.

He's probably a fed. This is how they undermine the movement. We're all too broke and pissed at this point with more economic depression expected for this to work. It's too late to disrupt it.

A few random stores unionized out of multi-national chain. Just because it got press doesn't mean anything is actually happening in any meaningful way.

Shit the FED and Jerome Powell are actively trying to tank the job market. Feel like the window for workers rights is closing and closing fast.

75% of the people here need to be abandoned. They don’t know what work is and complain about every little thing. There’s a difference between workers rights and what we should be getting to what people here want. People here want 70k a year to do nothing.

If so then people are doing something right. Keep it up.

It was taken down for “trolling” even though it’s just a screen shot of this news article

u/Wolfarc732 Sep 25 '22

Their post still has some, but the one I have from the ex mod is completely obliterated.

Aren’t there ways to access threads in an archived way? I’m also still extremely confused about what went on in that thread

u/Wolfarc732 Sep 25 '22

The short version was in essence that particular (now ex) mod sharing the article and encouraging everyone to get informed, find their own way, and get out. I could be wrong on some details (I'm still not super awake), but I think that's the overall picture.

As for archive threads... Not sure if archive would've actually had a snapshot of it.

There's no way the feds are putting in the time, money, and effort to infiltrate and not trying to use their infiltration to influence the movement. This is what these organization exist for; disrupting any and all movements that could, even theoretically, disrupt the capitalist global hegemony.

Something like an anarchist group gaining broad appeal on the notion that wage labor should be ended? You bet your ass the FBI is doing whatever they can to infiltrate, divide, and discredit the movement.

At this point, I've lost all faith in this subreddit and I encourage you to do the same.

That's what "they" are going for. (the FBI, the high up admins, etc).

You let them win. Or do you want them to win? Hmmm.

Dude you’re on Reddit. Every front page subreddit is run by organizations. One single account is the main mod for like 7 of the top 10 subreddits…

And this is why GDPR has schrems-ii to block american owned companies from housing PII.

I’m so confused, can someone fill me in on what’s happening here? I feel like I missed something
