The"anti-work"movement reflects a cultural phenomenon where contemporary youth,fac-ing the pressures of social involution,develop a distorted understanding of the meaning and value of work,leading to attitudes and behaviors that avoid work.This phenomenon mirrors the anxiety of self-identity and the deviation from work values among young people,significantly undermining their enthusiasm for work.The"anti-work"movement has triggered a collective online carnival character-ized by the disruption of labor justice,resistance to excessive competition,and indulgence in group revelry.Its manifestations include"passive resistance"represented by"anti-involution,""hedonism"represented by"pan-entertainment,"and"suspicion and mockery"represented by"general skepti-cism,"which are the primary ways the youth express their inner anxieties in the new work environ-ment.To counteract the corrosive effects of"anti-work"movement on the value of work in youth,it is essential to address this issue at social,media,school,and individual levels.A societal atmo-sphere must be created that celebrates the happiness of work,establish values that honor the glory of work,and guide young people to become idealistic,responsible,resilient,and dedicated individu-als in the new era.
