2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion.

Everyone's paid shit these days it seems. I feel like teachers/healthcare workers/IT people need more raises too. Idk why we're so focused on just writers...plenty more important people out there getting shit pay... especially teachers in America who have to deal with so much bullshit.
Solidarity, a rising tide floats all boats. The enemy is not at your side.
The writers are on strike at the moment. It's really weird that you don't think that's of interest.
Because I put things in tiers of importance in my head and theres jobs that rank wayyyyy above writers that need our rally cry way more in my opinion.
De-valuaing others de-values yourself. Divided we beg for pittances from employers and the owners.
You know what you're right. Thanks for the insight. I apologize for that comment.
I forgive you. I also appreciate your sense of self-reflection.
