Tim reads reactions from the anti-work subreddit, including a moderator's defense of the movement and a Gen Z worker named Kade who quit his job over a no-phones-during-shifts policy.
- A moderator on r/antiwork clarifies that the subreddit isn't about laziness, but about capital flows being unfair and the current system being non-existent.
- Kade, a Gen Z worker in Kansas, quit his job after his boss posted a sign banning phone use during shifts.
- Tim mocks the idea that a boss telling workers to get off their phones counts as tyranny or a Grapes of Wrath situation.
- Tim suggests Kade can't go a whole day without looking at furry porn, which is why the phone ban pushed him to quit.
- Kade claims he never sees anybody not doing work while on their phone, and objects to management taking away personal property.
- Kade frames his quitting as joining a bigger movement; Tim notes the subreddit has grown to over a million members.
- Tim predicts more people will stop working soon.
