It’s funny how literally no one is against the striking workers; glad to see what everyone needs to see. Workers using their collective power to demand reasonable wages and workplaces. Now if this is the writers, now do everyone else.

My favourite Seth MacFarlane story is him openly criticizing Jon Stewart for throwing his employees under the bus when they wanted to unionize.. (Jon Stewart was fucking furious apparently)

I've literally never heard anything negative about Seth and he will even go against his friends when he thinks it is the right thing to do.
