My bad it's completeanarchy I had in mind, anarchism is safe and in fact it's the only anarchist subreddit that has good relations with the socialist subreddits.
I'm not giving evidence you'll just have to take my word for it.
I was active during the antiwork events and we had accounts in the modteam trying to turn it around but we were fucked as soon as the admins stepped in and brought on liberal powermods. Things potentially could have gone differently if that sub hadn't spent the last 12 months prior purging "tankies", we tried to stop the wrecker pressures that were occurring in threads but were unable to muster enough people because all the purging had made it considerably harder to get people to help rescue a space they saw as one that had purged them previously. It wasn't really just "fed shit" though it was an op that involved some sort of financier cabal, we had direct evidence of canadian bankers running the spinoffs at the time but it'd take some time to dig up, the two that were caught faded into the woodwork when called on it but you can bet the power was still in their group. Whole thing was a disaster. A digital colour-revolution in action.
completeanarchy's def assholes, yes, though again I refrain from calling anything or anyone a fed because that's historically been used extremely abusively in leftist spaces. antiwork's more well known as having been fucked with, as generally when actual fed shit happens on reddit it invovles reddit admins getting directly involved.
Reddit is a fed site, completely captured in every way that matters, I honestly can't believe people still use it and expect good faith
I don't think they're mods of workreform anymore but were the creators of it and that whole op
