May I ask for your reasoning?
The writers and actors are on strike right now, and if you pay for media before their strike is over, it makes it easier for Hollywood to profit off existing media, ignore the writers and actors, and starve the writers and actors out.
If you want to support writers and actors while they are on strike, so that Hollywood folds first, consider donating to
WGAE members' strike fund
WGA Solidarity Assistance Fund (supports both East and West)
Food and practical support for their picket lines
Numerous people ON the strike have debunked this, watching things made pre strike pays the actors and writers as well, just don’t consume post strike media.
Strike funds aren't something you can debunk. And if they were being paid enough already, they wouldn't be striking.
