The popularity of the hashtag followed a video posted by ‘Animation Workers Ignited’ on X, captioned “Is Cartoon Network really gone?!?!” This viral post also drew attention to imminent job cuts within the animation industry affecting various studios.

    In the video, it was revealed that Cartoon Network is facing significant challenges, mirroring similar struggles in other animation studios. The footage highlighted concerns over job losses, noting that many workers have already been unemployed for extended periods, exacerbated by the industry’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The video condemned these profit-driven actions and gave extra weight to the inequality in benefitting from such decisions.
