Glad I never subscribed to DisneyPlus.  They were already in hot water for coddling Red China.

If those posts were the worst of what she posted ... wow.  This is why we call them snowflakes.

“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. How is that any different from hating someone for their political views.”

It kinda sounds like she painted too accurate a portrait of the SJW totalitarians, because they did exactly what she was warning against.

Sensational vid, DLR. Perfect summarization.

The double standard continues.....

Trivializing the Holocaust is fine as long as you’re doing so in the course of attacking anybody on the right, and we know this because the lead actor on “The Mandalorian” did so. In June 2018, Pedro Pascal sent out a tweet suggesting two things were alike: One image, captioned “Germany, 1944,” depicted Jews behind barbed wire. The second, captioned “America, 2018,” was meant to suggest young accused illegal immigrants behind bars in America. (Actually, it was a 2010 picture of Palestinian kids awaiting meals at a soup kitchen.)

This one proves the left has no sense of humor remaining though...

....and she (Carino) made a joke about trans people (or rather, a joke about language standards: she listed her pronouns as beep/bop/boop, which proved that among the woke left, three nonsense syllables can cause surprising rage).

I've never watched the mandalorian but have a question for those who do.  Was her character a main character or a side character that can be easily disposed of without any disruption to the plotline as in the Star Trek Ensign Ricky meme below?

I don't watch the show, but my social media mutuals do.

She was not the main character, but she was a prominent, recurring character who was going to get her own show because she was so popular with the fans.

Cara Dune was a character that was in a few episodes helping out Mando on his more important quests, usually involving the Child, aka Grogu. I wouldn't call her character Ensign Ricky level but the character could be recast and probably will be considering her rumored lead role in the new show Rangers of the New Republic, one of the Mandalorian spinoff shows announced at the recent D23 reveal.

Gina Carano STRIKES BACK: Fired Star Wars star slams cancel culture, announces new project with Shapiro's Daily Wire

Gina Carano is already back on her feet after having been booted from Disney on Wednesday. On Friday, she announced a new deal with the Daily Wire to make a movie.

Critics are calling her firing from Disney politically motivated, since she is openly conservative and a Trump supporter. She clashed with people on social media regularly over politics, the lockdowns, and the use of pronouns, among other things.

"Hollywood cancelled @ginacarano for being conservative. That's bullshit. So we're fighting back. Become a DW member today with promo code GINA for 25% off, and join the cultural resistance," said the Daily Wire's Ben Shapiro in his tweet.

Gina Carano has a new project the Daily Wire.
