Gina Carano Is Canceled by the Dark Side of Double Standards
New York Post ^ | February 11, 2 | Kyle Smith

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.

SNIP

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).

All of this earns shrugs in Hollywood. On the other hand, Sony Pictures chairman Amy Pascal was fired for making a Barack Obama joke in a private email. The message is pretty clear: Celebrities can say any crazy thing they want, but not about the ruling Democrats. These people fancy themselves the Rebel Alliance. They’re a lot more like the Empire.

Double standards everywhere. Will not impact me. Tried to watch that show for a few episodes, felt like I was watching 8 year old children playing in the back yard. Absolute garbage of a show for people with low IQs.

Who is this zeta male writing this? What she said was CORRECT, and there are copies of the government pamplets and government-sponsored movies to prove it!

Setting aside what is definitely a double standard I don’t agree with, I have a modest proposal for all those adults who get in a tizzy over cast changes in science-fiction/superhero shows/movies: GROW UP!!!

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.
