    And as always, the majority response to this will absolutely be something along the lines of “I support writers but you can fuck right off if you expect me to inconvenience myself in the slightest most superficial way in solidarity with you because actually having to modify my behavior in the simplest way is where I draw the line.”

      I don’t think that kind of anti-labour attitude is likely to be prevalent among people who play daily NYT word games. A more mainstream response is probably more like “whatever, nerds.”
