The dismissive tech worker discourse around #WGA and #SAGAFTRA #union workers striking basically fall into a predictable pattern:

a) They think actors and writers are a lot better off than most of them are;

b) They have made careers in an industry without any union protection, and somehow think this makes them virtuous;

c) They have no goddamn clue whatsoever how badly they themselves are being exploited.

@flargh You can always remind them (us) of that time the tech companies all colluded on a "no poaching" thing and ripped them (us) off to the tune of several billion dollars.:

I used to think we didn't need unions until that came to light.
