    Alright, I'm going to step in here on behalf of the mod team. Reddit has been very supportive of r/antiwork and we have maintained good communication with the admins. We have even been given access to certain tools and features not made available to other subreddits. We have no reason to believe at this time that the announcement of a forthcoming IPO will lead to major changes in Reddit policy or to any sort of activist shareholder(s) engaging in conspiratorial plots to have this subreddit or other leftist subreddits shut down. Most of the subreddits that have been banned have been banned either due to being unmoderated, or for persistent, pervasive, unmoderated violations of the Reddit Rules. We have consistently taken steps to abide by the Reddit Rules, to the best of our interpretation. If the admins point out to us that we need to take further action to abide by sitewide rules, we will take appropriate action. We do not need a massive panic to making alternative servers or trying to jump ship from the subreddit. While we are floored by the fact that so many of you are eager to make contingency plans, the moderators here want to ensure you that we do not foresee any forthcoming subreddit ban or other adverse action taken against the subreddit. If and when that changes, we will make an announcement to that effect.

    I remember when I was a lib, didn't know head from my ass.

      For an anarchist, that sounds alot like centralized control crowd work.

      "Stay here. Dont start splinter groups. Dont make backup plans in case we get deleted."

      I dont think the movement should splinter, but having two meeting places is just a good idea.

          We need thousands and thousands of encrypted and auto deleted chats/fourms. They can't monitor them all. Or at least make them work for it

      lol yeah..my prediction is they will be shut down so suddenly there won't even be an unverified rumor of it like with chapo. some feds or mercs will post some violent convos and insta ban before there's a chance for over a million subs to go anywhere else. scattered into the ether, most go back to being nice atomized libs.

      Imagine having no brain. Now imagine having less brain than that. Now imagine believing IPOs have no effect on corporate policy.

      Corporations are not and never will be your friend. They want your loyalty but theirs is always an illusion.
