Intolerant social media hall monitors are trying to enforce groupthink.
=======================================================================
On Star Wars-based TV series The Mandalorian, actress Gina Carano portrays Cara Dune, a former shock trooper.
And it seems that she is very comfortable “playing” a similar role on social media, where she continues to stand her ground against outrage mobs who keep going up against her in a bid to get her fired and “canceled.”
And it’s not just about something Carano posted herself – now her dogged detractors are going through her Twitter likes to prove their point against the actress.
The need not only to have an opinion and freely express it on social networks, but to make sure those holding different views don’t get the same chance, and are moreover run out of there and fired from their jobs is what’s fueling “cancel culture” and its proponents.
In the case of Carano, whose political position is thought to be more conservative than mainstream Hollywood, this manifests in the likes of Syfy FanGrrls Associate Editor Courtney Enlow tweeting that the actress is “the worst” after finding out she was skeptical about the integrity of the US election process, and had liked posts by Turning Point USA’s Charlie Kirk, BlazeTV’s Lauren Chen, and former House of Representatives speaker Newt Gingrich.
Enlow took screenshots of this “forbidden” Twitter activity, but apparently came to her senses and later deleted her own tweet. However, she maintains that Carano should be fired from the show, finding support from a number of Twitter users who were reportedly happy to add insults (calling the actress “human trash,” “trumper nutjob,” “bigot,” “transphobe,” etc.), while backing the idea of Disney sacking her purely for her political views.
Carano’s choice was not to get embroiled in any of this and instead post, among other positive things, “Let your spirit be filled with strength & peace.”
Carano’s past run-ins with social media mobs saw her accused of transphobia for refusing to list pronouns in her Twitter bio, of racism for sharing an anti-Nazi photo, and for her opposition to coronavirus lockdowns that have been devastating the economy and people’s lives for nearly a year.
Demshiviks are out to get everyone who is not a demshivik.
They eat their own last.
I remember Gina from her mma days. I knew she had gone into acting but I don’t really watch a lot of movies.
Glad to see she’s one of the good haha! Stay strong Gina because they are gunning for you.
Gina Carano can beat me up any time she wants!
That’s a guy, right?
Boy this is about as scorched earth as I’ve ever seen the insane left.
This is so bad.
biden must be kept from inauguration
Trump is right. They want us. He’s just in the way.
But they will try to completely destroy him if he loses office.
Because that’s what they do.
She will kick your ass for that!....................[former MMA star]..........
If The Country survives, those of us who are willing to stand up and be counted will be the reason.
Lefties are always whining about the 50’s era blacklist against commies, but have no problem instituting one of their own against anyone who thinks differently than they do.
Want don’t the cancel creeps say it to her face? Could it be because she will smash their faces in.
This is one tough lady.
They've already said so. They said they will sue him into bankruptcy and prosecute him into prison.................
Supposed to be ‘gals’ not ‘haha’. Sometimes the autocorrect gets the best of me.
These are millennial no brains.
To them, the 50’s might as well be ancient Egypt.................
“That’s a guy, right?”
sorry friend.
She is actually a very attractive woman, AND tough as nails. As good of an actress as most of the other “B” folks. That is just one of those pictures that gets everything wrong.
Like that one of you with the bald spot, love handles, and lots of nose hair.
I think that it is a matter of baseline personality. Lefties, at their core, are pretty much demanding children who want all the other kids to only play specific games, and only in one specific way. They are control freaks who seek to bend others to their will - it is what they do. Normal people just want to live their lives, and leave others alone to live theirs. The Puritans, at their worst, look like freewheeling hippies when compared to Lefties.
Too bad those with the time and energy to go through every single tweet someone makes doesn’t have a real job where they could possibly become an actual productive member of society.
Gina Carano is hot as hell. You should probably see an ophthalmologist.
