Disney Under Heavy Fire After Lucasfilm Drops Actress Gina Carano. #CancelDisneyPlus Becomes Top Trending Topic on Twitter
Breitbart ^ | February 11 2021 | ALANA MASTRANGELO

Posted on 02/11/2021 7:21:49 AM PST by knighthawk

The hashtag #CancelDisneyPlus became a top trend late Wednesday on Twitter after Lucasfilm fired actress Gina Carano from the cast of the popular Disney Plus-Star Wars spinoff series The Mandalorian. Her firing came after Carano shared a social media post that critics say downplayed the experience of Jews during the Holocaust.

“Jews were beaten in the streets, not by Nazi soldiers buy by their neighbors… even by children,” read one of Carano’s social media posts in question, according to a purported screenshot. “‘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 neighbors hate them simply for being Jews. How is that any different from hating someone for their political views?'” The actress deleted the tweet on Wednesday.

Absolutely 100% historically accurate yet cannot be allowed to be said. We are on a slippery slope my FRiends and the very history they shut down shows us where this will lead.

By firing Carano, Disney is 100% proving her point.

But what she said is TRUE, The National Socialist Demonrat Workere Party sowed discontent amongst the citizens, specifically against the Jews in their effort to Divide and Conquer.

a social media post that critics say downplayed the experience of Jews during the Holocaust.

In what was was the Jewish experience downplayed? This is exactly what they experienced as the nazis escalated the rhetoric against them right up to the ultimate solution.

And it's happening here. Now. The "Gleichshaltung" is in full swing.

Certainly true. Gina strayed from progressive orthodoxy.

I don’t subscribe to Disney+ because of idiocy like this. I don’t subscribe to Netflix because the Obozos are on the board.

It’s actually a fair point you have. All the major streaming services are captained by mad clowns. Amazon Prime, Disney+, Netflix, Youtube...

What we need to do is start a media empire. Such is beyond me, but there are no shortage of good books that have never seen a TV series or a movie.

Gina Carano should come out swinging with her attorneys. Some things are more important than movies. Where is the ACLU? My last question was meant to be a joke.

To get a clear perspective on just how the Biden administration is mirroring Hitler’s rise to power take an hour and watch the original World at War, Episode 1, A New Germany. You will be stunned and shocked by the similarities.

"The actress deleted the tweet on Wednesday."

I would suspect she has received a good many death threats and is now unemployable in Hollywood. Her point has been proven.

-- Where is the ACLU? --

It used to just play favorites, but now it has abandoned its previous claimed mission of defending free speech.
