        fucking about and doing whatever I want!

        That doesn’t sound like doing nothing ;)

      I love to sit around every once in a while, nothing wrong with that. Sometimes I sit in quiet contemplation for days at a time, other times I just go golfing or fishing or take a vacation to Bora Bora to sit on the beach and drink. If you want to do these things it’s not hard, start a successful business or make a smart real estate investment!

        Of course I want to work. Saying people just don’t want to work is absurd.

            Your assumption that the antiwork movement is just made of lazy assholes who don’t wanna do anything? Yeah, that’s a problem.

                Anti work isn’t “I don’t want to work”. It’s “I don’t agree with capitalist employment”. The antiwork movement WANTS to work, they just don’t want it to be a prerequisite for a comfortable life.

                Also, the OP is not against work. Again, they are against NEEDING to work; the coercive relationships in place that force us to work or else be stricken with poverty.

                    I have to admit, you’re right about that. The term anti work has exactly the connotation you’re saying, and leads to these types of annoying conversations in attempt to explain it, rather than talking about the real issues like poor working conditions, low pay, long hours, and extremely one sided power balances.
