I think the main issue that people had was they felt he misrepresented the sub and helped perpetuate the stereotype of laziness and not understanding the economy. In reality though, they were the ones mistaken, as their impression of what r/antiwork stands for is only a recent version from when the sub became mainstream and is not what the sub originally stood for.
Originally, the sub was much more radical and truly anti work which is the vision I'm sure Doreen here still believes in.
This process is part of why I dislike reddit these days tbh. Bunch of normies come in, change the culture and ideas, then bully the original users for being weirdoes who don't "get it".
