me in the morning: what i nthe fck
I’ve been seeing some fearmongering going around lately about how unionising the video game industry would shut down independent developers, and I’m reminded of similar rhetoric regarding minimum wage laws and small businesses, when the reality is that most small businesses have no employees beyond the owning partners, and thus aren’t affected by minimum wage laws.
Most actual independent video game developers – i.e., as opposed to big studios that just call themselves indie for marketing purposes – are in the same position of having no employees beyond the owning partners, so it’s difficult to see how unionisation of video game production staff would affect them one way or the other. Like, what are they going to do, report themselves for exploiting themselves?
Fandom is cancelled, we’re going back to casually enjoying media and not basing our fucking identities around the shit we consume.
