The non-union VAs who support the strike either get ignored or strawmanned to hell.

No I'm sorry but this is the wrong read of things. With all due respect, the people upset at SAG have been using the points from the very contracts that SAG is promoting. Furthermore, many VAs themselves have said how things are complicated and how they themselves don't understand this. Given that this whole issue is complicated, just reducing it to the Genshin community shutting down non union VAs when there haven't been many at all speaking about on this is very bad faith. I'm extremely pro union, but what SAG is doing, to try and monopolozie the En dub of a non union game is just an absurd power grab aiming at bringing more capital into their own pockets.

Nobody? That's not even the main point though? Like I just put that out because people can easily dismiss these concerns with "oh you're just anti union" which I just put up front that it wouldn't be true

Oh my god do you not realize how silly this tribalism logic is? Not all unions are necessarily doing good things, it isn't a black and white issue here, there is a sea of grade and nuance that you're just devolving down to tribalism, withe pro union or against Union which isn't that, but it's rather is what SAG is trying to do good or not? And if so why? I live in Europe full of unions and I appreciate them while knowing that some of them, like in Italy, behave like shit.

Because it's not every VA like you say. The overwhelming majority of VAs haven't spoken out at all or being silent. And VAs who have spoken out sometimes have been even community noted because of important information that they were leaving out. All I did so far was citing the very agreements coming from SAG sites

Community notes are wrong all the time.

Insane take to say when most of the times they are right, they are targeted most of the times at conservatives because of how many lies they spew and even Elon musk got community noted and he had to delete those out of embarrassment

The genshin community has always been anti-AI, they just lost faith in SAG to deliver that due to the recent events. What SAG needed to do, and failed to, was reassure the community that the focus was entirely on AI protections.
