As far as I can tell, /r/antiwork doesn't equate having a boss with slavery - they say having a shit job with a shit boss is a shitty situation they should not have to put up with. And, frankly, that seems reasonable.

I have no idea about the other subreddit you mentioned, but it does sound superficially like a spot racists would meet up. But it's been banned so I'm just judging it by its title.

The sidebar literally advocates for abolition of work.

Yes, and the FAQ makes it clear by that they mean the current way work is organized, they don't think that no one has to grow corn or otherwise be productive. They don't people won't have to do unfun things. They make it clear their issue is with their management.
And I’ve read numerous threads where people don’t agree with that. I think most are more concerned about their shitty situation no longer being tolerated, but most still believe they should work for someone.
