Re: Skin makers go on strike

I mean, technically the body of the actual thread (aside from the title & header meme) doesn't mention striking/unionizing at all, and the portion of the thread that mentions some artists stopping skin submissions for the month frames it more as a boycott & a way to reduce strain on the skin moderators temporarily. I agree with someone else upthread that the title & header are just meant to draw attention - I guess we can argue about whether it's ethical to meme on unionizing in general then? But I feel like that ship has sailed a bit with how many 'eat the rich,' 'when the communist revolution happens,' etc jokes have been prevalent on the internet in the past few years.

What I find way more aggravating is the handful of people in AAA (and elsewhere I imagine, because the FR userbase is like this) saying "literally 1984" and fearmongering about getting suspended/locked/etc. Especially the comment about staff "gunning after the escapees." Weird staff comparisons are nothing new to FR ofc, but some people have shockingly bad taste imo.
