The staffers, who work on projects including 'Batman: Caped Crusader' and 'Adventure Time: Fionna and Cake,' filed for a National Labor Relations Board election on Wednesday.
When times are tough like they are now, some people will tear apart, but others will band together for a strengthened front. With the amount of concentrated wealth and the difficulty people are having making a living wage, there does seem to be a rise of attempts to unionize and to use those unions to actually get greater benefits.
Now, the real question is if that will be successful. The last couple of times this started to happen in the US at least, there was resistance, sometimes bloody resistance, to the power being given to the workers. And what started with good intentions ended up in some cases corrupt, harming the unions for decades after with bad reputation and associations.
I think that somewhere like antiwork is going to see these things happening and assume that the movement is going strong. Others who don’t hear about these efforts at all will assume much more negatively. I believe it will be somewhere in between. A hard and continuous fight, but one that is being fought.
