This is roughly the equivalent of a reporter quoting a tweet as “people are saying”. Anti work is angry about work conditions, there doesn’t seem to be any evidence that they’re all quitting to lounge about. In fact, there are tons of stories there about people quitting bad jobs to get better jobs.

So would you say that they aren't actually... anti work?

It’s complicated. They’re clearly frustrated with the pay and working conditions typical with work these days. But I’ve seen no evidence of people going on the dole or retiring there. By and far the most common commentary there is people advising each other of their legal rights around how bosses treat them.
Like most of Reddit, the style and rhetorical flourishes are over the top. But the substance being posted does not seem to match what a surface analysis would imply.
