Quote scab 1 of 2 noun 3 a : a contemptible person b(1) : a worker who refuses to join a labor union (2) : a union member who refuses to strike or returns to work before a strike has ended (3) : a worker who accepts employment or replaces a union worker during a strike (4) : one who works for less than union wages or on nonunion terms 3 minutes ago, dumbsparce said: Never once have I seen this word being used so frequently until it was relevant to Hollywood therefore gaining more exposure.

It quite literally is the definition of the word in the context of union strikes And are you 100 years old? Because this word has been used for union strikes for that long 1

Lana Banana Posted October 5, 2023 Posted October 5, 2023 What the **** was wrong with Drew trying to continue her show during the strike? She has a team with families, she wanted to provide. Did anyone else do anything in order to keep the strike moving? Or everyone just sat quiet and “were on a strike”. I wanna see the receipts. 1

And if people cross the picket line, the strike doesn’t work and the billionaires win It’s almost like the point of a strike is to be intentionally disruptive to place pressure on those in power that normally is not there. 5

Ok let’s not aim our anger at Drew out of all people. 9 minutes ago, Lana Banana said: I’m sorry but what is wrong with crossing the picket line? She pretty much did so for other people to work. Or am I wrong, she wrote all segments herself? Mess, your anger at strikebreakers rightfully being called scabs makes so much more sense now 1

Nobody understands that millionaires don’t give a flying **** about strikes, they’re comfortable. The impact should be within the middle class only.

You are literally proving my point! There are countless strikes happening every day across the globe. Some get reported on some don't. And I'm sure there have been people who tried to break them in all occasions. The point is that now that this is happening in Hollywood, people suddenly care about SCABS. You're a scab, she's a scab, everyone's a scab!! What a horrible world we live in!! Edited October 5, 2023 by dumbsparce 1

I've stopped using those words bc they make me feel like yet another twitter user who lacks critical thinking and uses whatever new daily buzzword they see on their feed thinking they're smart and educated. SCAB has been a derogatory term for anti-union workers since James Madison’s administration. It so funny how you so blissfully announced your ignorance. 6 1

Absolutely not, from my personal experience I didn’t strike as a teacher because the children were the ones suffering if I didn’t come to work and they had exams that semester. I get the whole point of striking but unfortunately it doesn’t translate in my wallet or 100 of students that rely on my lessons that I provide. Also, students don’t understand the concept of striking so to them I would only appear as a lazy bastard.
