Not just union jobs, but traditionally union industries like auto workers as well. I have a friend that works in a factory in the US south. Not union, but the pay and benefits are close to keep UAW from gaining a foothold. He would complain about them handing out flyers in front of the plant every so often.

After a recent incident that had him sweating bullets over potentially losing his job for something minor (and having to face management and HR alone), I told him to take the leaflet next time. I hope he does.

OCD/AuDHD wreaks havoc on my executive function, and was left untreated for so long that my life is now falling apart.

I'm insufferable for completely different reasons.

Same and same. They came out swinging and I was 100% there for it.

It's not the whole fandom. But WfM (generally) highlighted the split between folks who were fans of the overall themes of Gundam (anti-war, character focused, fast and loose with sci-fi despite the real robot designation, etc) and people who just want "gritty" war anime (stupid space magic, why are there strong female characters in my cartoon, MUH WAR CRIMES, etc). It was a whole big thing on the old site and Twitter.

This was released on twitter as part of the 45th anniversary of Gundam as a franchise and to mark the 2-year anniversary of the original broadcast date of Witch From Mercury (October 2nd, 2022). Check out the Crunchyroll article for additional information. Synopsis of the first season from AniList:

A.S. (Ad Stella) 122

An era when a multitude of corporations have entered space and built a huge economic system. A lone girl from the remote planet Mercury transfers to the Asticassia School of Technology, run by the Beneritt Group which dominates the mobile suit industry.

Her name is Suletta Mercury. With a scarlet light burning in her pure heart, this girl walks step by step through a new world.

I think I'm pre-traumatized just thinking about the implications of this crossover.
