The studios thought they could handle a strike. They might end up sparking a revolution - Lemmy.world

Aren’t the teemsters about to do their solidarity thing here soon?
I thought solidarity strikes are illegal. What are they planning?
Making any strike illegal is so weird to me, like it goes against the idea of a strike in my mind. Isn’t the entire point that they don’t want you to do it, it’s the power a group of people have over the tiny elite?
I can see how it can be potentially problematic. For example, If I’m the owner of a shipping company what leverage do I have over Hollywood execs to pay writers and actors better?

Who cares? That’s the shipping company execs’ problem, not the workers’. More importantly, “potentially problematic” is far below the standard necessary to justify limiting workers 1^st^ Amendment freedom of association!

Fair enough
