seeing a pro wrestling gifset + explainer reblog and having to try so so so so so hard not to go into the long and complex history of labor in professional wrestling
#there's a reason that most of the push for unionization and labor protections have come from pro wrestlers who became actors
#because they experience the benefits of being in a union and they're like Holy Fucking Shit. Oh My God? What the fuck.
#however hulk hogan is a massive fucking narc and vince mcmahon is the embodiment of evil. so it's been a Rough Time
#esp with the WWE/WWF crowding out local promotions and becoming a sprawling wretched monopoly
#ANYWAY all that to say yes the adult men causing physical damage to each other are doing so consensually but they're doing it for a pittanc
#and they will not be given near enough compensation to handle their lifelong medical bills
#and the amount of input they have regarding their own storylines and fights is ummmm negligible! depending on the promotion.
#but mostly it's you do whatever you're told or you're going to get beat up even worse and get storylines that make the crowd Hate you
#that's all without going into the additional exploitation of image and implicit encouragement to go on steroids forever. so.
#ANYWAY. PROFESSIONAL ATHLETES ARE ALSO LABORERS. AND DESERVE LABOR PROTECTIONS.
