SAG leadership also wants to start including YouTube and other online creators in union membership.

Is this really what we want? Maybe it's time for Hollywood to change and grow away from unions and not proliferate into other areas of creative production.

Why would SAG workers want to "grow away from unions" when management doing their best to screw them over and impoverish them? You do realize that their interests are not the same as managements, right?

It is what I want. Youtube has no value with content creators. But content creators have zero power and steer constantly bullied with DMCA requests for policy violations that are never explained to them.

So all YouTube creators would be forced into unemployment during these strikes too. That's what they want?
