"YES IF YOU ARE IN A CRITICAL INDUSTRY YOU HAVE LESS OF A RIGHT TO STRIKE"
Entire thread on r/news is just the same sentiment of libs worried about their treats while the rest of America is already stuck in poverty and the world suffers already from American economic dominance.
edit for clarity.
“Noooo you can’t go on strike if it might affect
and the flow of my treats made by exploited third world labor!”
Also notice that it’s not, critical workers are being underpaid and exploited to the point of striking, so let’s blame the owners for the impact to the economy.
That being said, I don’t like the framing of writers and actors being privileged. Those are unions where they have a very small handful of ultra-rich megastars, but the vast majority of them are struggling just to make a living off their craft.
I agree! They immediately think of actors, or directors, etc. Instead they fail to think of set designers, make-up artists, FX people, etc. There is something there to a liberal looking at the industry and seeing the richest as a general guide for how everyone else must be doing (maybe not as rich, etc)
On top of that, they also don't even question why bank managers, financial analysts and other useless fucking jobs make over 400k? But longshoremen wanting job security and pay increases are bad? Instead they mask it with "NOOOOO DON'T HINDER PROGRESS TO MAKE US ALL CONTRACTED WAGE-SERFS!!"
Absolutely garbage people in that thread.
I remember this LinkedIn post talking about the potential in automating C-suite functions and the comments were full of “
Ackshully there are very important intangibles that only a coked out MBA former frat boy can do that AI simply isn’t capable of 
”
Those same lanyard enjoyers were smugposting about how us meat computers would be replaced everywhere by treat printers and that we should celebrate being replaced, but were so narcissistic that they didn't notice how their own jobs were actually easier to replace than the rest at the moment their fellow lanyard enjoyers decided to fuck them over.
Are you expecting liberals to follow a chain of cause and effect with multiple steps?
Not unless it's how to vote.
They can't do that either. Ask a liberal who claims to be sympathetic to Palestinians and lives outside of a swing state why they're voting for Kamala. There's no chance they identify that providing affirmative support to a candidate who does not need it outside of swing states does nothing but give the candidate more room to ignore pressure from voters.
Oh no no, I didn't mean convincing people. I mean the steps for online registration in pain-staking detail while pasting that god-forbidden vote link. The one thing I've seen them organizing for is copy and pasting "Check your registration!" like they're doing a civic duty.
Honestly, I'm convinced for a good chunk of them it's just like a cultural thing. "The state says we vote at certain time of year and then go and cast vote for blue and red and that is our civic duty. Vote blue."
There’s definitely an element of “If we don’t perform the voting ritual the democracy gods will be angered” going on.
For a lot of them it's literally their job. I should do a effort post on the campaign-industrial complex someday.
That would be great. Is there a resource I can read on it?
This was a good read from the perspective of running for Congress:
