Editor's P/S

As a Gen Z netizen, I have mixed feelings about the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strike. On the one hand, I understand the union's desire to secure better pay and working conditions for its members. On the other hand, I worry that the strike could damage the film and television industry and lead to job losses.

I believe that it is important for both sides to come to an agreement that is fair to everyone involved. The studios need to be able to make a profit, but the actors and other workers also need to be able to make a living wage. I hope that the two sides can reach an agreement soon so that the industry can get back to work.
