Gina Carano, the conservative actress who was fired from the hit series The Mandalorian for comparing the political climate to the Nazi era, claims her former bosses at Lucasfilm and Disney were 'watching her like a hawk' before her ouster.

‘I’ve been through so much, and I’ve seen so much now, clearly, of the bullying that’s been taking place, and I saw it before,’ the former mixed martial artist tells Ben Shapiro of The Daily Wire in an interview set to air on Sunday.

DailyMail.com has sought comment from both Lucasfilm and Disney.

'Nevertheless, her social media posts denigrating people based on their cultural and religious identities are abhorrent and unacceptable,' the statement read.

I'm still waiting for someone, anyone, to show me where she referred to Republicans or conservatives.

She was making a solid point. Hate is evil, no matter who is harboring hatred. And hatred starts out small, builds up until there is horror like the Holocaust.

You would think that she is posting a dire warning, something I thought is a legacy of the Holocaust. "Never again"? How can there be never again if we're not allowed to talk about how it began in the first place?

Cara Dune (Gina’s character) action figures are running $80 at Amazon. Clearly still popular.

I see them as unavailable, with collectibles being sold for about $200.
They were discontinued in conjunction with her firing.

I agree. The point she was making applies to all groups. A small group of liberals would not want to be vilified and lynched by a larger group of conservatives who had been whipped up emotionally to hate all liberals.
