Perfect contrast between two pieces on the writers strike and AI and such.
(1) The Ankler flawlessly makes the case that AI is worth worrying about, and a strike to control it is worth supporting. He rigorously avoids all politics and religion and cultural crap, following the oldest persuasive advice to perfection. Fairness Doctrine all the way.
(2)At Breaking Points, two striking writers start out beautifully, carefully distinguishing between the profit motive and the Share Value motive, which is a distinction most leftists miss. They lay out why ordinary working folks should show solidarity for the entertainers. You may not approve of Hollywood, but the writers are on your side. AND THEN: Around the halfway point, both writers pull the old Gotcha. They powershift into full LGBTQISFDEO34%8++$YNH gear and POC gear and Womxn Trans AntiCis gear, demonstrating why ordinary folks are RIGHT to hate Hollywood and reject everything related to Hollywood. They manage to punch every bruised soul and rub salt in every irritation.
