Yeah, but that was after the movie (Mulan) was done, right? They couldn't exactly fire her after that. And is James Woods still employed by Disney?
Gina Carano Fired From “The Mandalorian” Over “Abhorrent” Social Media Posts
- Thread starter hanselthecaretaker

You know that Jewish people aren't the only group that the Nazis persecuted, right? Of these groups were people who did have a choice to opt-out of whatever group they were in. For example, Jehovah's Witnesses.
So the point still works. Nazi Germany turned public opinion against groups they hated, groups that you could opt-out of. This was the beginning of persecution and atrocities committed against those groups.
He's not saying that Jews are running Hollywood or anything! I stopped watching after that.
I hope Disney gets sued for libel. Look at what they published:
I've read the tweet. She was calling for unity. But there is a powerful cabal of haters with an agenda out there lead by... rhymes with bafleen trenedy.
So controversial it's almost the exact same sentiment the Auschwitz Museum put out in 2018
”Jews were beaten in the streets, not by Nazi soldiers but by their neighbors…even by children. Because history is edited, most people today don’t realize that to get to the point where Nazi soldiers could easily round up thousands of Jews, the government first made their own neighbors hate them simply for being Jews. How is that any different from hating someone for their political views,” she wrote.
Other posts, including a quote saying “Expecting everyone you encounter to agree with every belief or view you hold is fucking wild,” and one saying “Jeff Epstein didn’t kill himself,” remained.
Lucasfilm Calls Gina Carano Social Media Posts “Abhorrent”; Actress No Longer Employed By ‘Mandalorian’ Studio
"Gina Carano is not currently employed by Lucasfilm and there are no plans for her to be in the future," said The Mandalorian producer.deadline.com
I’ve never watched the series or even care about Star Wars. Is it any good?
Anyways, it’s getting really predictable with social media spelling the death knell for celebrities. When will they learn they can only whisper controversial statements to themselves? Maybe she really didn’t care.
"Legal Exclusion" being a term of particular note.
Whether what Pedro Pascale said was more or less objectionable is more a subjective decision depending on one's political leanings. I think however the key difference is that Pascale hasn't been making as much of a habit of it.
Most of the US right has overtly supported a president who attempted to overturn a democratic election, and a bunch of them stormed the Capitol to try to make it happen with substantial popular support (or at least tolerance) from the rest.
So you'll forgive me when I say the US right has pretty much forfeited the credibility to complain about "attacks" from the left, because attempting a coup is pretty much the final word in attacking the opposition.
"It's okay, because they deserve it!"
Pop quiz: Was this or was this not the average German citizen's response regarding Nazi treatment of Jews and other groups?
Time magazine largely admitted that Biden's elevation was due to a "billionaire's coup". Just one more example of the powerful telling the voters they don't matter.
I don't know that Pascale has or has not made much of a habit of posting things. A jury could decide this was a wrongful termination. I don't think that will happen. I'm hoping she sues over the Disney defamation of her I posted earlier. She could win that with damages being her lost future earnings. She could lose it if the jury has people of the same ideology as, say, Kathleen Kennedy.
To use the claim of the African Warlord
"The people have free speech, they can say whatever they like while I'm speaking. However my men are very loyal and like me a lot so what happens to those who speak once I'm no longer there I cannot say".
The idea of private companies or groups doing something isn't censorship means the Hays Code, The Comics Code, The Council of Trent Fig leaf campaign, all don't count as censorship either. I consider them censorship I dunno about you but I see them as very much restricting art and free expression which is censorship.
Strange how Disney didn't react to the doxxing spree of one of it's stars
I know people may not be fans of Jeremy but worth pointing out that Skai Jackson doxxed the wrong people in some cases and in other cases trolls sent her fake images so she doxxed people based on false info and helped spread lies about them which some people believe and used to target them and their lives and the lives of their family.
He was in Kingdom Hearts 3 as of late. After that, I dunno. I imagine it would've been news if they'd fired him.
On the other hand Shuri from Black Panther had her little vaxx/trans/fraud rant in December, but unlike Gina she knew to shut the fuck up and quit Twitter.
Biden won by over 7 million votes (4.4%). Maybe show some respect for the votes of your fellow citizens, whether or not the billionaires sided with them.

Am I?
Is @Trunkage for identifying their gender as a Cyborg at present?

How Masks Went From Don’t-Wear to Must-Have
Public health messaging and science have to work hard to stay in sync during a crisis. During the Covid-19 pandemic, they haven’t always succeeded.
It was a fairly fast flip and kinda funny originally wearing a mask was seen as going against the advice, being selfish and not great. I'm not going to be pissy at some-one asking question when things flipped pretty quickly and more so when they're not in science as see this more as a conformity push. Some people will push against such seeming conformity pushes. I'm pro mask, have been since this thing kicked off. What doesn't help is certain people pushing for mask etc etc then not obeying the rules themselves. Its the perception of people doing this not because they know but just to not stand out. It's the guy with gloves on and a facemask eating chips in the middle of the supermarket with the same disposable gloves on and his mask pulled down.
As for the High Republic writer, you mean the one who basically said "Fuck white people, fuck white women, you're the problem with society and need to get out the way". That writer?
You mean like Corbyn defending the priest who claimed the Jews did 9/11? Cause sorry that's actually quite a bit more serious. Then again in the USA a democrat lawmaker was mostly fine to keep his job after spreading conspiracy theories about a Rothchild weather machine being responsible for some snow storms.
Don't forget they fire most Disney Princesses at 25-27 and some of the insane stuff that goes on with all that stuff at Disneyland and injuries due to costumes etc. Or the poor treatment of employees in general at the parks etc.
Fun fact, that photo is not of kids in the USA it's from a soup kitchen in Israel and they're not locked in the cage as such.
I was content to ignore this because it is at it's heart celebrity drama which I just don't care about, but there's been a development that raises a practical issue in my mind.
How are they going film Ben Shapiro walking when he has to stand on a box whenever he's on screen with her?

Phew!
"Carano told us today: “The Daily Wire is helping make one of my dreams — to develop and produce my own film — come true. I cried out and my prayer was answered. I am sending out a direct message of hope to everyone living in fear of cancellation by the totalitarian mob. "
Yes, cancelled so hard she gets a backup movie deal. Hardcore cancelling action.
I mean the same mob that got Gina fired were trying to get Chris Pratt fired too.
So far they've done:
Unsubstantiated claims he believes in Gay conversion.
Calling for him to be fired for not joining in the Avengers Biden Fundraiser event (others didn't join in too but he was singled out by the twitter mobs)
Accusations he wasn't taking things seriously enough by doing his "What's my Snack" series and not talking about the serious issues in the world. So he did an apology video which was trolling the hell out of people.
He faced the same mob circulated faked offensive tweets trying to get him fired.
He faced the mob outraged he made a joke that the Miss World contestants all looked like they were Miss Hungry
All this move will do is embolden the mob who want Chris Pratt (and others) fired. I mean Benedict Cumberbatch had a fairly public gaff on live TV before which could well result in them coming for him too.
I kinda hope Warner Brothers just hires Carano as a giant screw you to Disney now lol.
Haha! The quickest way to lose any legitimacy is to involve Ben Shapiro in your bullshit. Wow. This'll be a laugh.

Comparing being a Republican in the USA to living in 1930s germany.
Guess Disney gonna have to fire the voice of Woody now.
