Daniel JalkutApple should come out in solidarity with SAG/AFTRA. They have enough money to rise above the fray and do what is right: defend the rights of writers and actors, without whom the whole entertainment industry collapses.
steve mookie kong@danielpunkass Why just picking out Apple (who themselves are pretty staunchly anti-union)? The studios and other streaming services are raking in billions, they can afford to pay writers and actors what they’re due also.
@mookie the main reason is because Apple’s profits and riches are disproportionally derived from other sources.
@danielpunkass I see where you’re coming from. If that’s the case, why. It add Amazon to the list of companies disproportionally making money from other sources too?
I’m more simple. If a company is making money off the backs of the actors and writers, they should pay what’s right.
@mookie Yeah Amazon is another example of a company that could easily make this calculated move.
@danielpunkass And just like how Apple is anti-union, Amazon is also anti-union.
