The studio executives pretend that they are actually willing to let the respective writers insanely suffer (“The endgame is to allow things to drag on until union members start losing their apartments and losing their houses”). Thus the studio executives pretend to be madmen with an iron will and ire to start a cruel long-lasting vendetta against every screenwriter who joins the strike.
- anonymousab 3y agoI don't see any reason to see it as pretending. Ultimately they want to get rid of as much labor in the production pipeline as possible. They see "replace all of them with AI" as inevitable and utmost required for profit maximization, and therefore, every extra day of a writer being hired for even the smallest compensation is, to them, a great act of charity towards undesired and eventually irrelevant workers. So writers and actors causing an issue in the face of that 'charity' is deserving of the harshest and coldest response possible.
