just pull up the rent prices. it is not that deep

It's not a whataboutism it's literal proof that these people aren't privileged

it’s scary when a very simple point evades someone like this

If y’all wanna see the tide raising all support unions. Like this one.

And where did I suggest otherwise? I’m just saying there’s about 1000000 other causes I care about more than John Doe not being able to afford living in Hollywood cause he got bored of living in Nebraska and always wanted to write for Jimmy Fallon

It went from "lol writers make bank" to "they chose a job that pays like s***"

Notice I said NETFLIX writers

Which is why i said "ACTIVE". U rather see strikes for other industries happen than one that's is already happening doesn't really make sense to me.

And it's a union v industry thing, people that need to know what's going on know whats going regardless of how much press their strike gets

my only point is solidarity would help their case AND the average american worker’s too. there’s a reason these writers’ struggles don’t resonate with joe the plumber.

Notice my point about streaming services lowballing their employees due to contracts made before they were the norm

That’s exactly why the union exists lol lack of empathy

You think there’s no other strikes / union causes going on rn?

if you want empathy, show empathy. if they have the skills to write about people struggling on minimum wage, for example, they should know that they are in fact privileged.

Right I’m sure their feeling privileged skipping meals for rent

You think Netflix is lowballing their employees? Lol

Absolutely not.

Anyone supporting this strike is ableist because people with anxiety need Marvel movies for comfort + mental health.

don’t you have to make double or more of the rent to even get approved?

Knowing what I know yes nigga I'm not talking out of my ass here

Yes

Not if you have a co-signer or renting from a private owner

I know many people that work at Netflix lol

Strikes don’t happen for whatever reason

Why do you think you the only one in this convo that do lol

this is why I wanted more information. If they’re literally making 30k a year as a full timer I’d say f*** yes strike.

“I think they should suffer” you were not raised right
