I pointed this out in a Discord server I’m in and thought Id share here:

Bob Iger announced that Disney is going to absorb Hulu, and Hulu will no longer exist next year. All shows will move to the Disney+ app.

Disney also announced they were going to remove shows and movies periodically from their streaming services.

I believe both of these moves are because of the Writers Strike.

Disney knows its going to lose the strike. There is too much public support. Specifically, the WGA is going to win writers getting more residuals from streaming.

So if Disney takes shows off of streaming, they dont have to pay the writers the residuals.

They are going to use excuses like “not enough funding for the server capacity” or “not enough views to warrent keeping the show”. These are BULLSHIT. Its all greed. Its only GREED.

Pay attention to what happens in the following weeks.

And keep supporting the writers’ strike.

This is similar to what happened with HBO - new owners merged two streaming services, and all of a sudden there wasn’t enough server capacity for all the shows somehow. A total lie.

Time to start downloading EVERY Hulu show. Hoist the colors high.

And yell at your congresscritters about antitrust laws.

Download everything that isn’t a major franchise. If its name isn’t Marvel, Star Wars or The Simpsons, assume it’s getting canned and get a copy in as high quality as you can store. Eventually your copy could be the only one.

This.

This is especially true for the weird stuff you’ve never heard anyone else mention. Lost media is a tragedy regardless of what it is.

But don’t take a random tumblr’s word for it, here’s a verified source

Beginning now, if you love that show or that movie, piracy should be your first resort, not your last.

Unfortunately, I need Disney to crush DeSantis, completely and utterly. Because if it isn’t a complete rout, then other companies without the Mouse’s resources (so, almost all of them) won’t pick the fight in the first place and will back down the next time a DeSantis tries this.

Disney wants your money.

Fascists want you dead.

Also, pragmatism aside, Disney is just objectively right here. Desantis very very very very very very clearly broke the law to go after a minority. The fact that Disney is defending said minority because they see it as a source of money doesn’t change the fact that Desantis broke the law to go after a minority. Like, wider context of Capitalism aside, what we have here is a very specific case where one side is illegally going open season on vulnerable kids, and the other side said “hey, don’t do that.”

transcript:

“5 years ago, I spray painted this outside of my former shotgun apartment that myself, my ex-boyfriend and three other people had been forced to move out of the previous year. It was the week before Mardi Gras and I figured the tourists who were staying there should know a little history about the place. Luckily, my more popular friend shared it and this picture went viral, igniting the much needed discourse on Airbnb’s and their horrific impact on a city like New Orleans. Today City Council is finally voting on potentially reining in these whole home Airbnb predators. New Orleans is a city that is famous for its artists, musicians and overall laissez-faire creatives. Those qualities are not conductive to the cutthroat corporate world that has descended on our city. If I ever saw a politician, do something truly progressive I might die of shock, but here’s to hoping that the people of New Orleans will be considered and protected for a change”

[ID: photo in front of the apartment where red graffiti on the sidewalk reads “This AirBNB displaced 5 people”]
