I find these sorts of hollow displays by all of these actors hilarious because they could easily command a more "equitable" division of revenue for the poor, starving writers if they so chose, but they won't. Cranston was making $225k an episode for breaking bad.
A group of wealthy actors could also get together and start a new studio offering better contracts, as Charlie Chaplin, Mary Pickford, Douglas Fairbanks, and D.W. Griffith did with United Artists.
They aren't coal miners. CNBC reported the average writer's salary "stayed flat" at $260,000 in 2021. You could have interns from UCLA perfectly approximate the vast majority of the shit hollywood pumps out for an 8 ball. They are easily replaced and I hope they stay on strike forever.
Imagine defending a group of people who make 6 figures on average.
You're a fucking clown.
You're a fucking retard. I hope the executives don't fold so all of Hollywood can implode.
Go back to reddit where you belong you clown.
Have you considered that we hate both the writers and the executives and hope that they destroy each other?
You don't have to be on either side.
The 'bosses' didn't cause this problem. The well-connected trust fund babies who dream of being writers and are able to undercut their competition because they can live off of daddy's money are the ones driving down the wages in their industry.
Same with "journalism" and "art" in general.
They shouldn't.
But you also can't moral grandstand and preach when you are in a position of massive wealth and ignoring the plights of people directly next to you to keep that wealth.
Its why traditionally holy men were always supposed to be poor too.
Employees who are bitching and grandstanding and acting like communist filth can put their money where their mouth is or fuck off. Kinda like you
