“Gina Carano is not currently employed by Lucasfilm and there are no plans for her to be in the future,” a Lucasfilm representative said in a Wednesday statement. “Nevertheless, her social media posts denigrating people based on their cultural and religious identities are abhorrent and unacceptable.”
Her post?
"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?"That’s enough to be canceled over? Considering the studio still employs James “monkeys masturbating on young boys makes me happy” Gunn?

Bizarre.
Related: there's been more and more talk about a strange tendency for the left to overlook or generally be okay with Jewish marginalization. Tablet magazine has reported on this a number of times. It's very weird.

It wasn’t Abhorrent and Unacceptable when their star of the series posted something similar in 2018
Oh, and it turns out that the bottom picture isn’t from the US like he thought... It was Palestinian children in Israel.

My understanding is that this was not an isolated incident by any stretch and the rest was not related to the firing event but a pattern of behavior that is not Disney friendly.

The pattern of behavior has been generally and slightly conservative in nature, but nothing over the top that I am aware of.

Ahhh, wanting to open up California isn't Disney friendly, but finding joy in monkeys masturbating on children is. Good to know.

I’ve never heard of her but I hope it’s something beyond expressing conservative views.
If it’s the latter I don’t see any difference between this and the Hollywood blacklists of the 50s.

Take a look and tell me. Yes, she is vocal, but no moreso and a lot less offensively than actors and actresses on the left. It kind of started when the trans community was really pushing her on what her pronoun of choice was and she made a Star Wars Joke of Beep Bop Beep (like the droids). A lot of people were betting that she would be very pro trans and LGBTQ and when she wasn't, the mob came for her.
