Anecdotal, but: trust in Dem politicians who aren't pro-union is also crumbling. Pro-union means more than paying lip service to working people. It means making policy that supports them & not slashing gov't budgets for essential services for & staffed by the working class. Happy Labor Day!

Happy Labour Day. As a bit of union organizing history, both Boris Karloff (Frankenstein) and Bella Lugosi (Dracula) were founding members of the Screen Actors Guild. In fact one of the first SAG meetings was held in Karloff's garage! SAG started in 1933 to prevent the exploitation of actors.

I understand people’s reticence to move when the fear is that their paying audience won’t follow them. The thing is, Substack is increasingly trying to engineer it so that your paying audience *can’t* easily follow you, because they’re locked into Substack, not you!

Once you have decided that sacrificing one vulnerable group is a small enough price to pay, you become more receptive to ideas that make that price seem smaller. It becomes easier to see that group as a problem that needs solving. You're not crass or calculating about it. It just happens.
