Just took another look at the terms that ended the writers' strike and what stands out to me is that the total value of the deal is $233 million/year. To put that into perspective: Disney's streaming revenues were $5.5 billion *last quarter* and Netflix's profit was $1.5 billion *last quarter*
Upshot: the studios and streamers shut down production over a friggin rounding error on their accounting spreadsheet. smdh.
@DataDrivenMD The hell of an economic system driven by shareholders and giving them a mentally stimulating ludicrously unsustainable ROI every quarter or ELSE they'll panic. It's doomed to fail and be horrid for everyone. System's broke to shit so bad it's amazing there's anything at all and we haven't destroyed everything

Maybe check the party registration of your bosses when you think you make that decision. You work for team fascism and normalize transgressions.
