Should communists support the actor's strike?
I support the writer's guild strike because they are not part of the bourgeoisie. The same can't be said of a lot of these rich actors who own a ton of capital themselves. So on the one hand, it kind of seems like the bourgeoisie is fighting the bourgeoisie on this one. On the other hand, not every actor in the guild is as successful as Tom Cruise, so some of those striking actors are working class.
You're viewing a single thread.
Is it "some" of those striking actors or "almost all" of those striking actors that aren't tom cruise level wealthy?
Just one (highly publicized) front in a larger battle from my standpoint. Nevermind that they're also in solidarity with the writers, which both is great for the writers (who are usually paid like shit) but also more than that because the idea of multiple strikes in solidarity is completely alien to modern American political imagination
