The stronger workers rights are, the better everything will start to get for everyone.
"I'm against this!"
-People who won't be negatively impacted if those people make more money
yeah but like the CEO might have to cut back on his Yacht outings next year. think of how hard that will be for him!
And think of the Yacht manufacturers that are selling less Yachts!
love to see it
This should have happened so long ago! Finally! Animators deserve so much more respect, and the way all these corporations have been treating animators is going to far. They treat them like secondhand entertainment.

I didn't know that Cartoon Network Studios still exists. Didn't it get shut down?
I think that was a rumor, they never announced that they were shutting down but they're definitely struggling and have been laying off a lot of people.
