Their Song

It's crazy that these strikes are happening given that all the writers and actors are asking for is less than 0.3% of the revenue these studios make.

This is what gets me. The writers and actors aren’t asking for much but these CEOs are digging their heels in

It's because it sets a precedent that the CEOs are terrified to set. That they will acquiesce to worker demands if the workers are resolute enough.

Because in an ideal world for these rich fucks, the workers give up, and the CEOs win, and its reinforced in the collective public mindset that all a strike does is "disrupt the economy, deprive people of valuable products, and waste people's time". The goal is to maintain the assertion that Strikes Don't Work. I don't think they genuinely give a shit about 0.15% of their revenue. What they care about is the OPTICS.

They cannot back down, for the exact same reason that WORKERS cannot back down. Because if the workers win, it shows people just that bit more that The Poors have power and ultimately we can make the rich do what we want if we put our fucking minds to it. And that, to the rich, is bad news bears to the highest degree.

Saw someone on tiktok talk about the scene in 15 where it says “Even Dazai had forgotten how to breathe as he watched the storm that was Chuuya decimate the battlefield.” and how it was butchered in the anime, and they said “What if we had gotten an eye-reflecting scene, like how Ash looked at Eiji in Banana Fish.”

And OH MY GOD

IMAGINE IF WE HAD GOTTEN THIS

THIS HAS CONSUMED MY BRAIN
