Disney was “looking for a reason to fire [Gina Carano] for two months, and today was the final straw,” The Hollywood Reporter noted this week. “The Mandalorian” star might as well have been drop-kicked to the bottom of the ocean on the planet Maldo Kreis after she annoyed Hollywood libs by joking about two points of Holy Liberal Orthodoxy.

What Gina Carano said was stupid, but a lot less stupid than what Pedro Pascal said. If we’re going to cancel everybody in Hollywood for stupidity, then we’d be deprived of the talents of Mark Ruffalo (9/11 truther), Kylie Jenner (chemtrail loon) and Whoopi Goldberg (moon landing was faked).

Purge Is The Game!
I fail to see the problem here.
Well, this show (which I have not watched) was being credited with reviving Star Wars after the disastrous sequel trilogy - I guess they wanted to cancel out that goodwill they were starting to rebuild with the fanbase.
Oh well...my only hope is one day Disney goes bankrupt and sells off LucasFilm to an actual Star Wars fan who will declare the Disney garbage non-canon.
