The Writers Strike Ruined my life
Removed by modI am legit penniless and moving after a full decade in the industry, because the bougiest union thought they deserved to be upper class rather than middle class. I actually hate these people and their status driven desires to own homes in the nicest neighborhoods of NY and CA. To have their kids in private school with the producers kids. O it’s hard in Cobble Hill?
The writers strike ruined the industry and moved so much work to Canada, England, and Korea. I have no skills outside film production and I am going from middle class to homeless for the worst people who write Blue Bloods and Jimmy Fallon jokes. I fucking hate writers and they are all pieces of shit.
Craft unionism is not bringing about socialism, it’s bringing about different hierarchies and desires between jobs. The Wobblies were right about everything. I fucking hate you writers. You are closer to the producers than just about anyone on set. You are fucking country club shits. I hope you all get stuck writing cop shows forever you fucking trash
The workers did collective bargaining and the bourgeois class found a way to fuck up the industry a new way. That is not the fault of writers, they are fellow proles, however well paid they are or aren't.
Blame the victims if you like, but the only alternative is bootlicking.
