    Rich people upset they can’t keep up with other rich people.

    Nothing to see here. They’re just trying to live as lavish a life as possible while doing as little actual work as possible. Yes, I’m talking about the actors.

    It’s not about needs. It’s about wants. Greedy people and their supporters get upset whenever someone points out the difference.

      bro, like 75% of actors have 2 other jobs they’re working to keep a roof over their head lmao, no including all the electricans, makeup, set builders, CGI, etc that work on movies. You should educate yourself. Only 0.1% of them are living like kings, and most of those are nepo-babies with connections to land the big roles.

      Sure. The leading actors in a production are crazy rich. But according to indeed.com, the average actor earns between $7.25 and $36.00 an hour, averaging at $15.29. For every lead, you’ve got countless little people backing them up. Strikes aren’t just about the crazy wealthy leading actors. It’s also about the dude pulling in $15 an hour. In fact, the leads aren’t going to license their likeness and voices to the studio execs, so they really have nothing to worry about. But they’re here standing in solidarity with the people who don’t have that luxury, who will go in, get a $3000 cheque, then never work in the industry again.

      Just to be clear, you’re busy simping for the billionaires who run the media industry, pointing to the millionaires who are saying they are being nasty to everyone in industry. Says a lot about you, buddy!

        Just to be clear, I’m not in favor of anyone with above average wealth having more so long as children go without food and water.

        I’m not in favor of the actors or the owners. Copyright and patent laws need to die so none of them get to live lavish lifestyles at the expense of everyone else.

          I don’t believe for a second that you actually believe this. I think you’re just a concern troll trying to hide behind the inequity that allows kids to go without food and water while pushing the false narrative that every actor earns millions of dollars a year and thus doesn’t “deserve” to strike. If you really are concerned about kids, then perhaps stand in solidarity of the hundreds of thousands of people NOT earning seven figures so THEIR kids may be guaranteed food and water, and pressure the folks who ARE earning seven figures to show a little charity for the kids you’re so concerned about.

            Ok. Believe whatever you want.

            You’re wrong in this case.

            I personally believe you’re just upset at someone calling out the disparity and wealth and those who contribute to it.

              I think you’re probably a bit of a hypocrite.
