A person wearing futuristic battle armor crouches behind cylindrical containers in a sci-fi setting. They have a determined expression, reminiscent of Gina Carano's tough demeanor, and are partially shielded by their armor, with a glowing background and industrial equipment surrounding them.

    Horrible article. Why waste the time writing it?

      I do not think the fascists at disney will bring her back. It was a good article.

      1. Tripper

        Gina makes like of the goddamn Holocaust and it’s Disney who are the fascists?

        Yeah O.K.!

    There used to be a thing in this country called “difference of opinion”, people realized that, could still be civil to one another, and even be friends. It’s called freedom of speech. It’s not freedom of speech if someone cannot say something you disagree with – that’s called fascism. The woke crowd accepts nothing short of total destruction of anyone they disagree with and they have an unhealthy hatred for them. Only one side is permitted to have an opinion. Disney, and most all entertainment, have signed up with this crowd to the point they are willing to throw away half their audience. Entertainment used to be about enjoying something outside the stresses of life that everyone could enjoy – a brief escape from that stress. Now it has become nothing more than a way to promote one sides political agenda.
    So, no, unfortunately Gina will not be returning to Disney. As long as Kathleen Kennedy is running Disney, the Star Wars franchise will continue to get worse.

      Pretty sure them not hiring her again was Disney using their freedom of speech & them specifically trying to not lose half their customers. It was laughable to see people who clearly had never seen Star Wars try to define her, like those who acted like she was the only role model for young girls ?

    She was a bad employee, she broke the rules of her employment and she got fired. End of story. This isn’t a free speech issue. It’s an issue of consequences for poor behavior. Free speech is not without consequences. Karens get fired every day for outing themselves as racists, their racist speech has consequences. This is no different. Her opinions are bigoted. She was warned. She continued. She got fired. Nothing wrong with that!!!!!! Disney’s hand was forced as her employer when she broke the stipulations of her contract. The End.

      You are wrong. Her comments were strictly 1st Amendment protected. There was no bad behavior. She didn’t riot, invade the capitol or burn down any buildings. She voiced her opinion. Nothing more, nothing less.

        Yo Dan, Disney isn’t the government. They have the freedom to employ whoever they wish (assuming no gender, racial, religious, etc issues). If I started putting up tweets that mocked parts of our customer base, I would 100% expect my work to fire me.

        She didn’t get arrested, so her 1st amendment rights were 100% NOT infringed on

      2. Jeremy

        Could you explain, specifically, how this is a 1st amendment violation? Disney is the government? I mean, I expect that be true in like 20 years, but not today.

    2. Be real

      No. He’s more intelligent and informed than you, manbaby.

    That’s not what the tweet said at all… journalism used to stick to a strict moral code of reporting the truth. In other words, FACTS. You skew the entire article to fit a personal opinion and personal views. This is why I don’t trust any media and your agendas.

  5. Rango

    Politics aside, she was a horrible actress. I hope not true.

  6. CD

    Doubt it. Gunn was a mature adult who understood one should apologize when they do something wrong. Carano threw a toddlerish temper tantrum. Huge difference. And people who fall in the latter category tend to be hard to work with in general, whereas the former tend to be some of the best to work with. Never, ever work with someone who can’t admit their own mistakes if you can help it. It’ll always cost you more than it gains you.

    Yeah I no longer see this site as legit ?

    Covering him is just bad faith.

  8. Cam Holtoe

    The only way I see this happening is if Kennedy steps down from Lucasfilm. She’s the one who has created a culture of political posturing there.

  9. Dan

    She didn’t “make a Tweet comparing being a Republican to being Jewish during the Holocaust”. First off it was an Instagram post not a Tweet, second she didn’t make it she just shared it, and third it didn’t mention Republicans at all.
