IIRC the video game strike was against 8 or 9 specific video game or related companies. Any VA that striked during this time while working for companies not listed were striking "illegally". If they were working for a non-union job they were scabbing. If they then striked against the non-union jobs that they were scabbing for then that made them really fucking retarded. The people who make million-dollar paychecks as part of the negotiating team essentially told everyone else to go fuck themselves and lose their jobs and homes while they dragged the negotiations on for several months despite getting almost everything they wanted but 2 or 3 non-critical provisions. The fact that they convinced (threatened) everyone that this was a fine situation is both humorous and despicable. I don't know where I was going with this but people with this level of honesty and intregrity were usually killed by their peers when they didn't kill themselves out of shame first.
