Now this is meta.
Technically OP is off topic, if one happens to be a pedantic asshole. Which I am.
I’ll try striking! That’s a good trick!
The guild is seeking contracts that include staffer protections in the event of the sale of the company, improved severance offerings, and basic protections from AI.
In other words they’ve noticed that a bunch of greedy venture capitalists bought them and aren’t gonna let 'em just liquidate/automate their jobs for a quick buck.
They’re also probably feeling a bit paranoid after watching Hard-Drive have the same thing happen.
Can’t wait for the Onion article covering this news!
They turned boomer and make jokes about wokeness now, so who cares.
I haven’t seen that… linky?

Honestly seems like something from Babylon Bee.
That’s your example?!? Okay.
White women and people trying not to be racist… They’re ruining society right? Har har har \s
Maybe they should start an info graphics show about trans ideology in schools next… Because you know those wokies are the problem, am I right?
The video isn’t making fun of anti-racism.
It’s making fun of virtue signaling by doing something unrelated that’s difficult for yourself, annoying to others and doesn’t help anyone.
I don’t really believe in virtue signaling. It’s something the rightwing made up to say they’re offended without having to say they’re offended.
I do however believe in the practicalities of politics… And yes, sometimes a company is going to have a gay pride month logo everywhere but Saudi Arabia, but that’s a Nationalist problem of culture, not something progressives are causing.
…yet apparently progressives are to blame for most virtue signaling?
Like I say, I don’t believe in virtue signaling.
I don’t really believe in virtue signaling. It’s something the rightwing made up
No. Like so many things, it’s a real thing that right wing people twist into something it isn’t to fit their narrative or to excuse their own vices.
An example of virtue signaling would be to for example arbitrarily avoid using words that start with an n to showcase how virtuous you are.
An example of the right wing definition of virtue signaling is just…doing anything virtuous. Like when someone is legitimately doing or saying the right things for the right reasons, right wing troglodytes will call THAT virtue signaling.
no, it isn’t. It is 100% intending to suggest that anyone saying anything about racism is just virtue signaling. That is what comedic caricatures are for. They mock behavior by exaggeration and over simplification in order to discredit a viewpoint or people.
Nope. You’re, as usual, 100% wrong.
You’re ascribing intent that is not at all evident in the video.
It’s a video of a silly person doing something more silly than most real people ever would, in order to promote how virtuous she is, which isn’t helping anyone. That’s all it is. That’s the caricature.
There’s no part of it that suggests that all mention of racism is virtue signaling. That’s YOUR thought. Whether or not you agree with it, that originated with YOU, not the video.
You uh… you realize they’re all satirists… right?
I think it’s funny that they’re doing comedy like this, that supports ridiculous right wing notions of politics… Issues designed to distract and mock rather than using humour for a purpose, and now they’re…
checks notes
Having trouble with getting basic benefits within their workplace. Huh, maybe they should have stuck to the left a bit more.
You sound like a 4chan neckbeard. Not a compliment, more of a warning.
4chan neckbeards are suprisingly more knowledgeable than this person, believe it or not.
You must be fun at parties
I hangout in the philosophy section of book stores and talk to passers by about how I once wrote a book (before my divorce) but couldn’t get it published, and how I’m really quite brilliant and that’s why I’m poor.
