what exactly was offensive???

The Academy owes anyone accused of “witchhunting” Communists in Hollywood a deeply heartful apology.

They are quite acceptable of blacklisting Americans for their political views.

Meanwhile Burgess Meredith claimed his was blacklisted. Hard to see how he could’ve taken on even more work in his career.

>>The hashtag #FireGinaCarano began circulating on Twitter Wednesday in response to her posts. “Many users” tagged Lucasfilm and corporate parent Disney in their posts.

If it’s like the twitter campaigns against Rush Limbaugh a decade ago, it’s 12 liberals and thousands of bots.

I followed her on Parler when it was still up. She knew what she said was unpopular with liberals and I got the impression she was ready to suffer the consequences.

One day China will own Disney outright and purge content from the vault as Mao did to Chinese historical treasures.

[Guenevere]

I think they made Carano’s point!

[Azeem]

I seriously doubt this is true. KK is not the future of Star Wars and Lucasfilm knows it. Favreau has defended Gina, even last month. Until a non SJW publication provide verification, I’m callign BS.

[BigEdLB]

She likes DJT.

I think her post hit too close to the mark. The leftists recognized themselves as being in role of the Jew haters/Nazis and Trump supporters being the Jews.

Thus she was cancelled.

Liberals don't want to be reminded they employ Nazi tactics.

[Lod881019]

Her posts are accurate once this hits conservative talk radio she’ll be considered a hero for stating the obvious

[seowulf]

What is it lefties used to say?

Truth is hate to those who hate the truth.

[nagant]

Hitler didn’t come to power by telling Germans that they were superior. Hitler came to power by telling Germans that everyone else was discriminating against them.

Sound familiar?

Demand a refund.

[Eagles6]

Exactly.

>>What she wrote, is TRUE:
>>“Jews were beaten in the streets, not by Nazi soldiers but by their neighbors…even by children,” Carano wrote Instagram.
>>“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”

Despotism (Encyclopedia Britannica film, circa 1946)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TaWSqboZr1w

“A community is low on a ‘Respect’ scale if common courtesy is withheld from large groups of people on account of their political attitudes.”

“...in a downright despotism opposition is dangerous whether the despotism is official or whether it is unofficial...”

“A community rates low on the ‘Information’ scale when the press, radio, and other channels of communication are controlled by only a few people and when citizens have to accept what they are told.”

“See how a community trains its teachers”
“...these students are being taught to accept uncritically whatever they are told. Questions are not encouraged.”

“And if books and newspapers and the radio [and facebook and youtube and...] are officially controlled the people will read and accept exactly what the few in control want them to. Government censorship is one form of control. The newspaper that breaks the government censorship rule can be suspended. It is also possible for newspapers and other lines of communication to be controlled by private interests...”

Democracy (Encyclopedia Britannica film, circa 1946)

“The newspapers of a real democracy meet these tests...”

Newspaper checks.
1. Balance of coverage
2. Disclosure of source
3. Competence of staff

Love Gina in the Mandelorian. She would not be easily replaceable. I hope she has not really lost her job. She did not say anything wrong and she is entitled to her opinion.

You guys are slackin'

Walt was anti-Communist and anti-pederast.

Looks like it’s time to call for a personal ban from all media and entertainment - music, movies, theme parks, books, tv and sports ... right?

Media has always been that way in the past 40 years.
