Nutjob nutjobs with nutjob.
“The truth is I was being hunted down from everything I posted to every post I liked because I was not in line with the acceptable narrative of the time,”
If you define the “acceptable narrative of the time” as “conforming with reality and minimal human empathy” then yes, that’s accurate.
actively discouraged the COVID vaccine and iirc pushed the horse deworming medicine and bleach
“I was not in line with the acceptable narrative at the time”
Color me shocked she got public backlash when using her fame as a platform to spout anti-vax BS.
“Gina Carano will not be returning to The Mandalorian or the Star Wars galaxy after sharing a post on social media implying that being a Republican today is like being Jewish during the Holocaust.”
I read about a Jewish woman standing on a train platform whose baby was crying from hunger. The Nazi guard didn’t like the noise and grabbed the baby by both legs and swung it as hard as he could against a brick wall and then handed it back to the mom and made some quip about how it wasn’t crying anymore.
Before they built the gas chambers and ovens they used to just force all the men, women, and children to dig huge trenches, then they’d make them all climb inside, and then just mow them down with machine guns. Adolph Eichmann said he orchestrated the gas chambers and built the Nazi genocide machine to spare the Nazi soldiers from the low morale that came from gunning down thousands and thousands of helpless moms holding up their babies begging for salvation, along with elderly people, and kids, while the able-bodied dads, sons, and brothers were sent to work as slaves for as long as it took for them to starve to death or die of exposure.
What a stupid and ignorant thing for this absolute uneducated fool to say out loud.
And fuck social media for giving her a platform to begin with.
Fuck, I hate to side with the Mouse but at least this time around they seem to be drawing a line instead of promoting Nazism to Americans.

Just a reminder that anyone can sue anyone for any reason, it’s just a question of how long it takes for it to get thrown out.
I could sue you for defamation, despite neither a conspicuous lack of any contact or reason for it, and as long as I get that news to the Media before a Judge tells me to fuck off and my lawyer gets censured into dust, the headline would still say I was suing you.
She wasn’t fired she wasn’t renewed.
“The ability to speak doesn’t make you intelligent.”
She really doesn’t want to be employed as an actor or anything short of a Fox or OANN pundit ever again hu.
The suit details that Carano was required by Disney to meet with a representative from the LGBTQ+ group Glaad after online behaviour that was seen as anti-trans, yet she refused. She was then asked to meet with a group of LGBTQ+ Disney employees but again refused and was fired soon after.
Girl…you were put on a Performance Improvement Plan. You didn’t complete it. You were fired as a result. It would happen at my job, too. They don’t want to give money to people who will make them look bad. Most places don’t. You probably signed a lot of paperwork agreeing to do or not do a bunch of shit and then you did it.
Was that like…your first job or something?
Edit: I read this on here right before the Gina article. Elon Musk is such a trash person and hypocrite:
Per Bloomberg, these California workers were fired in 2022 after they circulated a draft of an open letter critical of CEO Elon Musk. The letter stated that Musk’s behavior in public was “a frequent source of distraction and embarrassment,” according to a New York Times report.
It also contained an allegation that the company wasn’t complying with its zero-tolerance policy on sexual harassment. Although the draft letter didn’t specify the exact allegations, it mentioned “recent allegations against our CEO and his public disparagement of the situation,” per The Verge.
Also the demand she meet with queer coworkers was clearly an attempt to communicate that she was creating a hostile workplace for coworkers based on protected statuses.
And it should be noted that politics are intentionally not protected because otherwise black listing communists would be illegal
Part of me really wants to hate watch that anti woke action movie she promised everyone at the time.
Disney obviously did not run their message announcing Carano’s dismissal through HR, and it will cost them. Carano probably has a good case for defamation because of the way she was dismissed. This was very careless on Disney’s part and has left them open to retaliation. They could have simply announced the departure and left it at that. Future employers should take note that if you dismiss someone, say as little about it as possible.
That’s true for small businesses and businesses that don’t buy ink (and lawyers) by the tanker.
Not a Lawyer and definitely someone that would love to see Disney get bent over the legal barrel and financial bitch slapped… But Carano has no case and nothing to gain here except publicity with right leaning organizations. Disney gave her numerous chances to walk her comments back and try to educate her to what she did wrong. She refused each time. Disney then terminated her employment and made a standard PR announcement as to why they made the decision they did, something fairly common in the industry.
Defamation would require Disney made untrue comments or statements about her, and her to prove those statements were false or misleading. Since this all happened over public social media, there isn’t any evidence Disney did anything but state facts and amicably as they could inform the public why she would not reprise the character in the future. If there is any comments that would qualify as defamatory Im not aware of any of them.
Defamation means what they said about her is not true. Did Disney say anything that was untrue?
Elon has super weird tits
We don’t need to body shame Elon. There are scads of things we can behavior shame him on, and that has a chance of positively affecting the world (not him, he’ll never see this, but someone out there might see this and reconsider thinking he’s cool.)
Filing a nuisance suit against her former employer is a great way to boost her career, and teaming up with a scumbag like Musk helps clarify her ethics for anyone who’s unfamiliar with who she is. Outstanding move, Gina!
She no longer has a career with mainstream studios.
Fascist bullshit is her career now. I assume she has another wackadoodle movie coming out soon. Or maybe she’s the next mother of Elon’s soon to be estranged children.
Aka the Sorbo Guide to the Entertainment Industry.
On the subject of Sorbo, apparently he had two small strokes during his time on Hercules and that’s part of why he went off the rails so damn abruptly.
In other words they’re following a playbook written by the brain-damaged, literally. By all means, go on.
Well, she voluntarily took multiple blows to the head as a MMA fighter…
Two strokes and a man in the 90s being upstaged by a spin-off of his show starring a woman in an action role with intense queer implications.
Oh Peanut…

DISSAPPOINTED!!
As much as I agree with you logically, and also disagree with what she did, we shouldn’t encourage people to avoid lawsuits to address injustice they perceived. That’s how we ended up with #metoo. So many on the entertainment industry not rocking the boat as it could damage their career. Some were blacklisted for speaking out, so it was a real fear.
If it was a real injustice the same logic would apply and we should take that into consideration when we consider damages for real injustices.
I agree completely. I had the same concern as I was writing my comment, which is why I was careful to specify that it’s a nuisance suit. (Side note: autocorrect saved my butt. I can never remember how to spell “nuisance”.)
Why sue? Doesn’t she make enough money with her residuals from the Hunter Biden bio-pic?
Oh look, another Peter Thiel vs. Gawker situation. Except Disney has much better lawyers than Gawker did.
Let’s see who blinks first. I’m guessing it won’t be Disney.
This is not the same at all. Disney did not out anything private about her or Musk. They also did not publish revenge porn of her. She is a public transphobe and a Holocaust denier.

And also that the Hulkster actually had a case. Gawker repeatedly refused to comply with court orders to take Hulk’s tuna can video down.
This is just a wanna-be martyr who got fired because she couldn’t keep her goddamn mouth shut about her stupid conspiracy theories and ride the Mouse’s cash train. But hey, watching Muskie burn even more money is always entertaining, so fucking let it rip.
I get that Hulk had a case, but he couldn’t have afforded to bring it himself. So Peter Thiel, who has endless money and an axe to grind with Gawker for outing him, funded it.
Which is sort of similar here, except that Musk’s axe to grind is because Disney stopped giving Twitter money and is “woke,” so it’s even more petty.
It was more about who is funding the case than whether the case has merit.
The PayPal mafia really is enjoying living up to the name.
Musk vs The Mouse

Not to be confused with The Mouse and The Mask.
What about The Mouse and the Motorcycle?
