And Hollywood will hear the voices of the actors union, as it is head by Fran Drescher.
- No shit?
  
  No shit.
@Pips first [the AI] came for the writers...
Is Biden going to break this strike like he did the railroad worker strike?
Is this more wanting endless residuals? I really find myself not sympathetic to people wanting endless paychecks for work they already got paid for.
- The companies are making record profits off of those same writers and artists.
  
  If you’re unsympathetic maybe stop watching and consuming media? Good luck to you
  
  Several companies are making record profits from my work, and they aren't currently paying me anything for that.
- Wait, it's ok that the companies get endless profits from media, but not the people that created it?
  
  If I lick the boots hard enough they might notice me
- If you think everybody in Hollywood is a super star you're in for a surprise.
- Lol the content creator, the writers are not entitled to this, but the corporation is, shills gonna shill.
