minus-squareYiddishMcSquidish@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2arrow-down6·edit-217 days agoWe’re not great currently, but we are leaps and bounds better than Saudi Arabia right now. Are you saying all entertainment folks in the US should just stop working? That is neither feasible or possible for non A-listers. Edit: apparently some one is ok with already struggling artist starving. Hope you have the same energy when it’s your turn to refuse work. Edit 2: suck my cat’s barbed dick.
minus-squareThirdConsul@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·17 days agoDon’t invent the scenarios, none of the comedians in questions are “starving”.
minus-squareYiddishMcSquidish@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1arrow-down3·17 days agoOh yeah. Definitely take a different view of Bill Burr. But there’s a local one legged pedal cad driver who I personally know just trying to make ends meet. Should he suffer as well?
minus-squareYiddishMcSquidish@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1arrow-down3·17 days agoThat pedicab driver also lives in South Florida. Where in the fuck do you recommend he moves too? It must be nice to cast judgement on others… You’re a bad person and you should feel bad.
