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.
