Former Ramsey Solutions employee claims she was fired because was pregnant

A Williamson County woman has filed a federal lawsuit against Ramsey Solutions alleging that she was fired from the company because she got pregnant without being married. Caitlin O’Conner says in the lawsuit filed Monday that after asking for maternity leave paperwork for the upcoming birth of...

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.

Trump winning the presidency despite losing the 2016 election by several million votes is what would tell the voters that they don't matter. It also tells voters that they don't matter that when that unfair advantage isn't enough to win anymore they'll just insist that those votes for Biden were illegal and then try to overthrow democracy.

I didn't know said things had happened. I mean you're citing smaller outlets so seems they weren't covered much but yeh they're bad I'm here now to say it's bad?

As you're the one trying to taunt people over them I'm guessing you agree with the firings?

Snip

Well, thanks for not reading what I said.

Yes things come around. And it works both ways. Gina was a canceller. She acts exactly like all those Lefties your worried about. Don't be surprised that she got cancelled

Yep, I'm outraged about it, and this is the first I've ever heard of Dave Ramsey.

who did she push to have cancelled again?

I'm just pointing out that people are being pointed at particular targets that happen to be on one side of the political spectrum. There's a whole Youtube industry that are designed for people to attack others.

It's just not the left as some people pretend. Cancelling happens everywhere. People are trying to cancel Disney right now. It's how this culture war works.

 

[Trunkage]

Yep, I'm outraged about it, and this is the first I've ever heard of Dave Ramsey.

Cool. Here's what I'm asking. Realise that people are trying to make you into a canceller.

It doesn't mean you shouldn't criticise Disney. I don't think this warranted a firing. I'm also not going to defend Gina too much because it's not like she wasn't trying to cancel people either

 

[Houseman]

Me, personally?

An again as I pointed out said incidents weren't really covered by many outlets at all.

People who are celebrities have a bigger platform so yes it will be more visible when people are trying to pull that platform down.

As for "People are trying to cancel Disney now" really? really? you're going with that? You're really going with that?

The insane implication that people are just obliged to give Disney their money?

Disney isn't a person, it sells products and if people don't like those products or they change then they're more than welcome to stop paying to support said products. Disney is choosing to change the Mandalorian and change it's product line up, people are saying they're done.

It's a ridiculous comparison to try and make because I fucking bet you couldn't live by those same standards of being forced to blindly support any corporation you ever were a patron of lol.

It's one hell of a false equivocation there, tell me why any corporation is entitled to my money again?

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.

Cool.
Then she should've use them as an example instead of an ethnic group.

My point still stands.

 

[Dwarvenhobble]

My point still stands.

So does the point of her post. It didn't start with Gas Chambers and camps.

It's the same damn point the Auschwitz Museum pointed out in 2018.

 

[Dwarvenhobble]

I don't know, they have their work cut out for them.

Again she was still cancelled as such it's just The DailyWire has decided to stop into films seemingly now.

Yes, cancelled so hard she gets a backup movie deal. Hardcore cancelling action.

I mean Hollywood has used pits and platforms in the past to make people look taller.

 

[Agema]

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.

Well, when the boys you like are marching through the street chanting stuff like "Jews will not replace us" and wearing T-shirts saying with the message 6 million [Jews] wasn't enough, it's amazing how you're nowhere to be found tutting about anti-Semitism.

So I'll take criticism of Jeremy Corbyn from people who actually give a damn about anti-Semitism.

 

[BrawlMan]

He's not saying that Jews are running Hollywood or anything! I stopped watching after that.

I care because....? Whatever. If it makes you happy, more power to you.

 

[Eacaraxe]

So I'll take criticism of Jeremy Corbyn from people who actually give a damn about anti-Semitism.

And by "give a damn about antisemitism" you mean "use falsified allegations of it as a political bludgeon against anyone critical of Israeli policy, to defend a right-wing extremist government". Like for example, this emerging kerfluffle over Nathan Robinson's sacking from The Guardian.

 

[Thaluikhain]

And by "give a damn about antisemitism" you mean "use falsified allegations of it as a political bludgeon against anyone critical of Israeli policy".

Oh yeah, I'm sure that's exactly what Agema means.

 

[Houseman]

Oh yeah, I'm sure that's exactly what Agema means.

I looked it up, and Amega means: "Agema (Greek: Ἄγημα) is a term to describe a military detachment, used for a special cause, such as guarding high valued targets. Due to its nature the Agema most probably comprised elite troops."
"The word derives from the Greek verb ago (Greek: ἄγω "to route, to drive"). It can literally mean a pack, a routing party and/or a detachment that has a single commander."

 

[Eacaraxe]

Oh yeah, I'm sure that's exactly what Agema means.

Yeah, because god forbid we turn a critical eye towards who makes the most vocal allegations of it, when and against whom, to the greatest effect in the political sphere, and in defense of whose political regimes. And what impact that can and does have on the integrity of conversation about actual antisemitism, the credibility of those claims and their claimants, and the impact it has on the Jewish diaspora.

As an actor part of her job is selling herself to the audience, both in her roles and generally as a person. If she isn't likeable then she isn't marketable, if people don't want to see her in things then Disney doesn't have any use for her as an actor. It really is that simple.

Disney looked at her history of tweets, decided they didn't want to deal with her image and fired her. PR is literally part of her job. If she can't figure out how to not put her foot in her mouth on social media that's her own fault and that's her not doing her job.

Her getting fired is not censorship, it's Disney being unhappy with her job performance.
