OT: Gina Carano fired (Mandalorian)

Well done, liberals....and she actually makes a good point. The government as a body is the mouthpiece for division and hatred. Many, and maybe even the majority of liberal people legitamely think you are a horrible person if you are a Republican or supported Trump.
But I think you can agree that being a conservative, which roughly equates to 30+% of the US population, is much different that being a Jew in Nazi Germany. Disney is more concerned with keeping Star Wars diverse than they are making good content. They are social justice warriors. You have to know your room.
 
I think disney has a right to hire and fire who they want but I think it sets a dangerous precedent for their reasons on this. From what I have seen, she didn’t say anything that was offensive. But, people get offended easily now a days so idk.
this thread was interesting but soon tweedle dee and tweedle dum will find it and we will be off the rails
 
so to be clear every employer should be able to fire anyone based on political thought , race, creed or religion. that is what you are advocating. If disney can do as they please shouldn't all companies. the law needs to be applied evenly
I don't even think I insinuated that..."hypocritical as fk" should point to implied unfairness.

Diverse doesn't mean what they think it does. That word today means no deviation allowed from approved narrative
 
She equated being conservative with being Jewish during Nazi Germany rule.... she continually argues thats COVID 19 isn’t real... and y’all are going to join her side?

The National SOCIALIST Party otherwise known as NAZIS didn’t start out by sending Jews to the ovens. First they had to demonize them. That is the stage the media and cancel culture is in now. Worse is coming. That is what I think she is saying.
 
This all started with the Mob coming after her because she would not say something they approved of about BLM.

Then said mob try to force her to declare her “pro nouns”. She jokingly said Sadi. Beep Bop Boop.

honestly it is like the Nazi and the Jews. But I do agree. Saying that is pouring gas in a fire.

this happened to our family in a similar fashion. It wasn’t fun.

a lot like Hunger Games right now. Big Govt has certain politically correct groups and if you mess with them. They’ll come after you
 
1. She's been cruising for a brusing for some time now and I'd be shocked if she had not been reprimanded prior to the termination.

2. Comparing any situation to the Nazi treatment of Jews will get you canned in the wood and she should have known better. There are ways she could have expressed her position (a position I see some validity in.....SOME) without doing so.

3. Her publicist should be fired for not requiring all tweets to flow through the office or not filtering this tweet. People being canceled left and right and you allow her to continue while she is developing a character on one of the world's most popular shows. FFS
Schumer compared the Capital Riot to Pearl Harbor and he didn’t get canned.
 
It’s all business. Disney probably thinks they’ll lose less fans by canning her. If she was the lead that probably wouldn’t be the case.

Nothing wrong with being vocal about you opinions, but if they run in opposition to your boss, you better be irreplaceable.
 
I see nothing as "fireable" in that article. Lucasfilm should be ashamed for their lack of backbone in this case. They have just magnified the problem by caving so easily.

she’s also had some controversy with the the LGBTQ community. Maybe none of those things are super offensive, individually, depends on who you ask, but she’s constantly right on that edge, that last one pushed her over.

This is truth. actually its Nationalist socialist workers party and was one of the first socialist governments. Hitler claimed inequity was caused by 2 thing jews and communists he demonized them then set up various groups to burn their businesses, threatened businesses who hired them then physically assaulted them. this was followed by the banning of books and the suppression of free speech. newspapers were nationalized to control information and indoctrination started in school. This is a method that has worked in socialists countries for decades.
 
Neva herd of her.
Kood sumwun pleeeze ekksplane who she iz and wut she dun did to me like I'm in Kindergarden?
Thankz
She used to be hot and now she’s not

Sad that your would need a publicist for that, but then again that’s what they’re for. Protecting your public image and brand. And you’re right, trivializing the holocaust or saying anything remotely negative about Jews is not going to work for you, especially in Hollywood. Ask Nick Cannon.

Nick Cannon lost nothing.

Just say that. When someone says that no one should be persecuted for having different political views, I think a lot of us can agree on that.

democrats ar eroughly 30% of the population also but 95% of the media. that's the trick that was used so effectivley in 1938

Yeah and that’s another thing. I don’t know if this was in so much a moral decision or a business one. Sometimes it’s both, but when people start a #fireginacarono campaign it’s obvious you’re about to have some unnecessary disruptions in your viewership.

not necessarily true . that's the fear but quite often those starting these campaigns don't consume the product whatever it is. I remember the Goya boycott . they refused to yield. turns out no one calling for the boycott used the product. its actually merely about loss of revenue it has more to do with party affiliation of the ceos. both sides are guilty

I try not to support Disney in any way. Bad influence on our society. Just look what happened to Mickey Mouse Club alumni like Britney (crazy b!tch), Christina (fat and confused), Lindsey Lohan (drug addict).

Gina Carano may not be the sharpest, but not sure what’s wrong with what she said. Disney, morally bankrupt sellouts and very gay.

They did indeed use propaganda that made it easier to demonize them and subsequently murder, torture and imprison them. I don’t know how much citizen violence they were victims of though and I also suspect we’re not remotely close to that happening. Trump supporters just stormed the Capitol, they vilified themselves.

I also think there’s something else going on. I don’t think either political party is being demonized in that way, but there is a subsegment of the right that is now being seen as dangerous, but that won’t result in arrests if crimes aren’t being committed.

I worked in corporate marketing before, believe me you don’t want to have anything negatively associated with your brand, especially when you’re publicly traded. Plus we don’t know what they know about the demographics of their fan base. What happened with Goya likely will not happen with all.

The capitol was a one off. its not a pattern or a recurring theme. it was horrible for three hours of one day. the idiots harming police officers should be jailed. it is not acceptable. it never is for any cause .

You don't have to agree with her to see her point here which is that the first step is to make the population hate a certain segment so much they are willing to beat them in the street. You don't think the media on both sides of the equation is working toward that type of anarchy to sell clicks?
Hahahahahaha
 
If we cant have grace and humility our society is lost, and it may be too far gone already. Public discourse has been replaced by public destruction of someone, their job, their family and anything else. The mirror is a helluva thing and since no one is perfect everyone has messed up at one point or another.. disney cant fire everyone, but they will be hypocritical regardless. Bad precedent if they wont follow through with what other actors or producers in their ecosystem have said or done

true
 
Is this even a story if she isn't an actor? You guys act like people aren't canned all the time for publicly saying things that a company considers damaging. This is capitalism. They think it makes them more money to get rid of her than to keep her. I think people give these billion dollar companies too much credit to think they make these decisions on a moral ground, regardless of which side you think they fall on.

And Biden/Demo supporters have and continue to burn down cities in Washington, Oregon, California, Maryland, DC, etc. They continue to murder police officers. They continue to murder each other daily in the big cities. One altercation at the Capitol by about 100 people doesn't come close to the destruction and mayhem caused by the thousands of liberals across this country for the last 4 years.

It's not close to the same thing, yet one small group is having the full might of the US Gov brought down on them; and all the others just continue to destroy and murder all in the name of "justice" without any real persecution whatsoever.

they did not do it for financial reasons. CEO's are terrified of being cast out of their social circles. I agree it was not for morality. they live is fear of being cancelled. there spouses lose there status their kids cant get into private schools , country club memberships etc

You mean the guy that just got his job back... after only half-way apologizing for the anti-semitic crap, while not saying one word about the racist garbage he spouted about white folks... "lesser than due to a lack of melanin".
 
Republicans have adopted the victim mentality hook, line and sinker lol. Aren’t you the party who stormed the US capitol in an attempt to overthrow legitimate election results? The party who claims voter fraud when you lose fair and square? Shut the fvck up about being victims, you are oppressors
