Do you think firing somebody for anti Semitic comments is imposing liberal values? Don’t a lot of conservatives agree with the decision?

I will remind you, as Chait is being reminded on Twitter, THAT DISNEY HAS FIRED MULTIPLE NON-CONSERVATIVES FOR POSTING CONTROVERSIAL OPINIONS ON SOCIAL MEDIA. This isn’t about her being conservative. No one is tolerating spreading false information about the pandemic. And there’s nothing “conservative” about that, anyway.

This piece is, in the most generous reading, extremely disingenuous. It doesn’t remotely reflect the content of her social media posts over the last 5-6 months. If I hadn’t followed this story and ONLY read this article then I, too, would think Carano got a raw deal. But this article doesn’t remotely reflect the facts of the situation. In a word, it’s garbage.

Conservatives like the Proud Boys? Unite the Right?

You mean Callie, Sara Rodriguez? Good choice. Or the woman knight from GOT. Plenty of excellent alternatives, who'd be stronger actresses anyway.


Yes Callie. The problem with poor Brianne of Tarth is that she’s so imposing and memorable that new characters would be hard for her and I bet she’d love to be something other than a warrior.

They can all be in Kirk Cameron's films.


Alongside Scott Baio.

Nothing stopping Trumpsters from starting their own studios, their own distribution companies, etc..

I think there is a conservative Christian film production company. They even had Nicholas Cage star in one of their films. Cage is desperate for money so he's been taking any and all roles coming his way.

Movie was called Left Behind, as in the rapture.

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2467046/

I'm sure this movie company could hire her.

That’s Kirk Cameron, as mentioned above.

uh no.. that's Nick Cage. did you even bother to click on the imdb link? It says it right there.

Brienne of Tarth (Gwendoline Christie) is already in the Star Wars universe. She was in Force Awakens and The Last Jedi.

see? Conservatives can get together and form their own film companies, etc... For centuries, Jews and Chinese immgirants here had to create their businesses because the WASPs didn't want to do business with them. Conservatives should pull themselves up by their bootstraps and start their own production companies, high tech companies, etc.. since they seem to hate liberals so much.

Yes this.


And I will add all of these people sign contracts. Read them people they all have clauses. You negotiate your contract. Don't like the clause don't sign.

Or Terms of Service on Social media, don't like the rules don't use.

This is not "cancel Culture" it's accountability. Or just a plain old contractual thought process. You sign it you own it.

IMO this was long overdue... she was mocking people who were transgender at the same time her costar's sister was coming out as transgender. Who does that? A terrible person, that's who.

She has been saying problematic stuff for a while now... the last post with the Nazi stuff was the last straw.

As far as the show goes, by season 2 she was basically a sidekick. There are plenty other threads they can follow in season 3 that don't include her... the cast was getting a little bloated as it was. And frankly, she was not a good actor, anyway. She really won't be missed at all.


How was she mocking her costar’s sister???

She was making a bunch of anti-trans comments right at the same time that Pedro Pascal's sister had come out as trans. She wasn't directing her comments specifically at Pedro's sister. Mocking people who are transgender is never okay, but it seems particularly gross when her coworker had a family member who was transitioning.

Mocking how? Did she specifically say offensive things against trans people? I heard she disagreed with the use of pronouns for anyone, but I’m not sure if that’s true ...

The same Disney that was filming in a region with extreme religious persecution and human right abuses, running the script through the censors in said region so as not to offend the abusers?
Yeah, I totally believe their moral values.

Sorry that they don't conform to your view of ethics. If you agree to work for them, then you need to conform to theirs.
