Writer's Strike 101: What Are We Fighting For?

[LexYeen]

This is what a union is for. Stand strong.

[Bloody-Butterfly]

I support a person’s right to strike for any damn reason they want to.

[triggerfairy]

The writter strike is the most entertaining shit holywood had produced

[lucaswickmansound]

Without audio engineers the sound wouldn’t be good
Without good cinematographers the shots wouldn’t be good
Without good directors the set wouldn’t have a clear direction
But without writers there wouldn’t be anything in the first place
Keep striking

[Sh]

Please don't end the strike...EVER!!!

[eyarbroughzone]

They probably think they can get a robot to do your job. But it will suck and not be worth a crap. Stay strong!

[kittylo]

i hope writers get their benefits and demands

[diego]

I cant even remember the last time Hollywood produced something that is bearable, and thats without mentioning the hatred they have for the regular guy.

[alexschnellmanguitar]

now if only the music industry would do the same. THIS IS A FANTASTIC START THOUGH. KEEP IT UP. DAMN THE MAN

[kadeisstuck]

I'm not a writer, not by career nor hobby but I support this. You should be paid for your creativity, labor and time. Stand strong!

[shinyandnotpanicking]

Hell yeah. Solidarity. If people want entertainment, they should be willing to support those who make it.

[michaelmeandros]

Do it to it!!! You all put your minds heart and souls into creating the enjoyable, educational, and provacative entertainment that gives joy, happiness, culture and community!!

[Its_Cannon]

American rights being used?!? Americans Protesting peacefully but effectively?!?? THIS IS WHAT WE LOVE TO SEE. Godspeed

[monosaturated]

There needs to be more intersectional solidarity. Some actors have stood by you fine folks, but all actors who care should be doing the same. Production crews, cinematographers, directors, etc., also need to join en masse.

These execs think your righteous crusade is futile because they think AI and cheap gig writers are plentiful. Maybe they are, but if actors and crew deprive them of their labor, as well, then the issue will finally be forced to be addressed by these plutocratic moguls

[misteraskman]

I aspire to be a scriptwriter for videogames. That is my dream job. And the WGA is fighting to keep dreams like mine alive.

Thanks Adam. But really, thanks to everyone who is striking. You will win this fight. From Mexico, Gracias.

[Psyrus]

I'm all for this strike. Keep it going. Really, don't let up...ever.

[lostbutfreesoul]

From one striking family to another, keep in there!

So many companies have forgotten that Employment is a negotiation process. They are not buying and selling us between companies, we are not 'rented out' to them for whatever pittance they decide to pay. Companies require us for *contracted Labour, * so we get a say in what that contract states.

[amadddd]

Dont forget Bob "Makes 250Mil for no reason" Szlac or whatever.
It sickens me how grossly overpaid rich people are, and how unwilling corporations are to just take a portion of that overinflated salary to make workers happy

[Alex_Barbosa]

Now if this action can spill over into every industry in the country wed be golden

[TwoHawksHunting]

Writing should be a career and they deserve to be well paid. Keep fighting! Stand strong!
