| LOS ANGELES -- Lucasfilm says Gina Carano is no longer a part of "The Mandalorian" cast after many online called for her firing over a social media post that likened the experience of Jews during the Holocaust to the U.S. political climate. A spokesperson with the production company said in a statement on Wednesday that Carano is not currently employed by Lucasfilm with "no plans for her to be in the future." "Nevertheless, her social media posts denigrating people based on their cultural and religious identities are abhorrent and unacceptable," the statement read. Carano fell under heavy criticism after she posted that "Jews were beaten in the streets, not by Nazi soldiers but by their neighbours.... even by children." The actor continued to say, "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 neighbours hate them simply for being Jews. How is that any different from hating someone for their political views?" Carano, who played the recurring character Cara Dune on the "Star Wars" series, deleted the post but it was widely shared online and spurred the #FireGinaCarano hashtag to trend. Her character appeared in several episodes of the second season of "The Mandalorian," a series about a bounty hunter and his quest to unite a powerful, young user of the Force with a Jedi Knight. Dune, who in the second season is a lawperson on a frontier planet, frequently teams up with the title character to fight an old nemesis: remnants of the evil Galactic Empire. Carano, a former mixed martial artist whose Dune character used a mix of heavy weapons and her fists to best opponents, had been criticized for social media posts that mocked mask wearing during the pandemic and voter fraud during the 2020 presidential election. She also mocked the use of gender pronouns, listing "beep/bop/boop" in her social media bio. I couldn't give 2 shits at all if anybody was left twix or right twix but cancel Culture and anti intelectual puritanical crybullying faux outrage cultrual imperialsm or simply put wokist social justice warriors is really beyond sickening and tiring for me. https://www.ctvnews.ca/entertainment/gina-carano-fired-from-mandalorian-after-social-media-post-1.5304551 |

I've seen this coming as well too and the ultimate irony is that Disney was pretty proud of the human rights violations in China but will fire someone at the same time for their own "poltical views" |

| "Actions have consequences." and "Private companies can do whatever they want." arguments incoming with supersonic speed. I have avoided social media for so long that I can no longer tell what exactly are people angry about anymore. Drawing parallels between Nazi Germany and modern-day cancel culture zealotry? Yeah, those things are similar in many ways, but there are some major differences as well. The driving force in the latter is the system itself, not some delusional leader with a virulent ideology. Ironically enough, she becomes a victim of this same system shortly after saying it. It should be more than crystalline who are the real rebels and who are the enforcers of the system at this point. |

Crow_Black said: the government first made their own neighbours hate them simply for being Jews. How is that any different from hating someone for their political views?" I mean this statement is insanely retarded. Comparing an immutable trait to your beliefs. Conservatives do this shit all the time and then actually hate people for their immutable traits. Does she hate nazis simply for having different views? Probably not actually. If your job is to be a public figure and you're a dumbfuck who people don't like you're gone. That's it. I'm tired of people pretending this is a new concept that just spawed up nowadays because "woke." Try being a civil rights advocate in the 1800s or a union organizer during the red scare. You would be "cancelled." |

I do not need that strawman, so I am going to give it back to you. So you are saying that Taco Bell should be able to utilize slave labor and that insignificant actions such as expressing ideological heterodoxy on social media should lead to potentially life-ruining consequences for its working-class employees? Obviously, neither of those two extremities can exist, but unless you are a radical right-wing libertarian who unironically believes that businesses can literally do whatever they want, I think we can agree that companies should not be able to fire employees without a proper reason and that what she did does not classify as such. |

Pedro leans left and so does Hollywood so he's cool. Gina leans right so she gets canned. I mean, its obvious what's happening here dude. |

Companies and you're boss also get this same freedom of association. so if they don't want to associate with you anymore they legally are allowed not to associate with you. that is FAIR. just because there are opinions that are less popular then some does not make it "unfair." what people who are complaining actually want is "freedom of speech for me but none for thee." by eliminating you're bosses right to association your taking away some one else's right. regardless if you like their views or not their views ARE their own views that they as a individual have all the right in the world to enforce on THEIR OWN company. freedom of speech =/= everyone opinion and stance gets held up on a golden pedestal and beloved by all. freedom of speech =/= freedom from criticism. |

I mean, in the second case James Gunn was literally fired and dismissed from several active projects and was only reinstated after issuing a public apology and meeting with the chairmen at Walt Disney Studios on multiple occasions. Jack Morrissey also issued an apology almost immediately and no publicized corrective action was taken. So by the same logic Gina Carano would need to first issue a public apology for her past social media posts and then be given the chance to plead her case to Lucasfilms. Until she issues a public apology for her various controversies your two examples have a precedent they followed for their social media actions which Carano has not followed. Most notably despite her having prior controversies she maintained her position with the studio and it was only after multiple transgressions that she was inevitably fired, so James Gunn arguably was treated more harshly by the studio initially but later forgiven. |

Why do you think we have an "Anime discussion" forum? If the ENTIRE forum was meant to be anime only....then why would we have a "current events" or "casual discussion" sub forums? Why don't you go to Casual Discussion and tell people there to STOP talking about sex and dating? #3 You don't seem to understand that the ONLY politics I care about is American Politics....I rarely if ever talk about other countries politics, why should I fucking care? Which brings me to ask YOU....if you are NOT American, why do you care about OUR politics? Trust me, I give zero fucks about Canadian politics, you will never see me talking about Canada UNLESS it has something to do with America or is related in general to something happening in America. This is MY country and I care a LOT about MY country. |

| you guys bitch on and on about how the free market should be respected when it results in the mass death of minorities but cry like babies when a big conglomerate decides that having a nazi sympathizer on a global show is bad business. |

--ALEX-- said: Crow_Black said: --ALEX-- said: Crow_Black said: Yet you still make ragey posts or threads all for the sake of creating drama around here. Let me explain some stuff to you because I like to be clear with people around here. #1 Yes, I make political threads, because even though politics are the most divisive thing people can talk about....I have an almost inherent URGE to talk about these topics...doing so in real life is NOT a good idea since as I already said, it's highly divisive and it's not worth losing friends because of it, so I go ONLINE to do that. #2 MAL is NOT the only place I talk politics....I also talk politics on Discord (although I don't go there that much anymore) and Reddit as well.....so it's not like MAL is some special place, I come here a lot because I'm very familiar with the site and a good amount of members on here. #3 I do not create "drama"....as stated, politics are the most divisive topic to discuss, I fully expect EVERY time I talk politics to get into arguments and perhaps even very HEATED arguments. I'm OK with that....I've been here since 2008 and for as long as I can remember, I have ALWAYS discussed politics, that's NOT going to change. 1) You mentioned that before that you have an addiction to talking about politics online but not in real life. Poltics is an divisive topic i will agree on that but however the way you are acting in a hectic and bashful manner only makes it more divisive than it alreaday is. 2) This place is based around Asian animation and most people here just wants to talk about anime they are watching and that is it. There are places like r/politics and political servers on discord you can talk with your buddies on the left. 3) YES you do create drama like that Karen thread and the fact that you said that Joe Biden is our president and we must accept it even to non American people like myself. I couldn't give 2 shits about American let alone Canadian politics at all. I've been shorter time than you have i'm no saint but i certainly don't create rage threads like you have had. #1 The difference between myself and most other people on here (regardless of their political worldview) is that I'm VERY outspoken, I fully understand that, it's part of my personality, I'm not changing who I am. #2 Oh my god....how many times am I going to hear "THIS IS AN ANIME WEBSITE"?

Trust me, I give zero fucks about Canadian politics, you will never see me talking about Canada UNLESS it has something to do with America or is related in general to something happening in America. This is MY country and I care a LOT about MY country. 1) And that is why people are very wary of talking with you because you can easily derail a subject to poltiics even when it wasn't political in the first place like that psychic thread i made a few weeks ago 2) The anime community ever since i became a member politics is the very last thing they would worry about and to be honest you can't be a political or religious supoprter or be an anime fan at the same time at all because of conflicting interests as the left and the right would pick it apart and find something to complain about for their own selfish agenda 3) You see I personally think that Americans are one of the most self centered narcsiistic people in the world who always has to make things about themselves and you expect other countries like my own to give a shit about your problems when have issues of our own to worry about. I never said anything at all about caring about your politics let alone my own ones either. Patriotism like the one you have is very dangerous and not healthy in any dossage at all and all in all i think if a member from pol on 4chan was a lefist it would have to be you. |
