Earlier today some journal sites revealed leaks how the mod team of Antiwork are FBI informants going back to 2011 and lulzsec. Allegations of r*pe and community arrests. Mods get removed, a lot of posts get personally deleted and automoderated. The subreddit automod starts deleting any mention of pastebin, archive, fbi.
Screenshots of one of the mods that was removed and permanently banned for trying to raise awareness of the issue:
The over 2.2 million member subreddit /r/antiwork, which was subject to a large swarm of trolls after a Fox News interview in January 2022, appears to have been infiltrated by an FBI informant who may have enabled multiple arrests in the anti-authoritarian community. Laurelai Bailey, an infamous former mod, has likely committed serial r*pe without facing any legal repercussions, and appears to actively collaborate with the FBI.
When /r/antiwork mods voted to ban Bailey, they were subsequently purged from their mod status by Baileyβs friend /u/TeiaRabishu, who is still the top mod. Anarchist mods say that Teia has used this as an opportunity to divert anti-work theory from its anarchist foundations and co-opt it with liberal theory instead, evidently enforcing this through FBI surveillance on the subreddit.
The alt accounts HyponoTransgirl, Bimbopolitics, and EphraelStern have all been linked to the same informant: Laurelai Bailey. Bailey is well known among the hacker community for helping the FBI charge Julian Assange and faking her own death, potentially to avoid r*pe charges.
The following documents show Baileyβs relations with the FBI, evidence of r*pe, and testimony from /r/antiwork mods:

Today I realized antiwork is actually a 9 year old sub.
