We're trying to reduce the numbers of hours a person has to work.

We talk about the end of paid work being mandatory for survival.

there are ways to contribute that aren't 40+ hours a week.
And I'm not seeing a single comment in here that is saying otherwise.
It's called helping each other.
The AntiWork movement already peaked so I’m not sure what the Lemmy instance is trying to accomplish.
If your position is simply that people need to work less, you're doing a very bad job of relaying that, and thus shooting yourself in both feet.
I hate to admit this, but I agree. My qualm isn't with the message that we ought to work less. That's smart. Why shouldn't we live in a society where we can have a fulfilling lifestyle without endless soul crushing work?
My qualm is with the wording. The implication is that one should consent to work, but really work is a fundamental truth. Take away the facade of society and all we have is our struggle to survive the elements and find food, i.e. work.
