Gina Carano ‘Got Stripped of Everything’ After Disney Firing
New York Post ^ | June 15, 2022 | Ryan Glasspiegel

Posted on 06/15/2022 12:35:06 PM PDT by nickcarraway

The legendary former MMA fighter was fired from Disney’s “Mandalorian,” a spinoff of the Star Wars franchise, after an Instagram story comparing the heated political climate to Nazi Germany last year.

Carano’s career, however, was not over. She signed on to a starring role in the film “Terror on the Prairie,” which was developed by The Daily Wire. The conservative news outlet is seeking to build a movie business for people who, like Carano, are alienated from Hollywood’s output.

“I don’t feel comfortable with mandates,” Carano said in an interview with Libby Emmons in the Post Millenial, adding that vaccine mandates “are kind of going against everything I got canceled for. I’m not trying to force my stuff on other people, and I’m not trying to have other people force their stuff on us. I feel like if everybody just had a little bit of freedom, conversation could go a long way.”

She’s great. She’s just got common sense. Very rare these days.

“I feel like if everybody just had a little bit of freedom, conversation could go a long way.”

The problem is that the left has decided that they don’t want any conversations. They lose when there is a conversation, so they decided instead to just digitally cut out the tongues of anyone with a different opinion.

At that point, if you keep trying to have a “conversation” you are just playing into their hands.

I was taught this in school. It was called “Blacklisting” and it was the most horrible thing ever done in the film business.

I guess it only counts as bad if you are a commie.

If you want to see Gina in action, she played a real badass in the movie “Haywire “

She is certainly a beauty - like most conservative women!

The cast in “Haywire” was incredible - Michael Douglas, Antonio Banderas, Michael Fassbender, Ewan McGregor, Bill Paxton, and Channing Tatum.

I watched the first season of The Mandalorian but canceled Disney + after they fired Gina. It wasn't all that great a show IMO. The effects and CGI were good, but the stories were like recycled western plots. The baby Yoda character was awfully cute, though.

I also watched WandaVision (pretty good) and The Falcon & the Winter Soldier (sucked bigly). Haven't seen anything that came on after I canceled. I'm sick of superhero movies and shows anyway.

The communists invented blacklisting, which is all that “cancel culture “ amounts to anyway.

she has a social account with Gettr, and she aint hurting for money, that’s for sure. Funny that Bill Burr hasn’t been fired yet.
