As I remember from. History class in school, the Nazis took Jewish people into shower rooms and pumped poisonous gas in. They also shot people who resisted.Comparing anyone to them is wrong imo.
I'm glad you agree any actor that even suggested Trump was like Hitler needs to be fired from Disney too.
Unfortunately this won't happen.

Considering her comments on pronouns in the past and trivializing them, I wouldn't be surprised at all if it was Pedro Pascal himself who had a hand in her sacking
Considering he came out and defended her at the time(while disagreeing with her) and has since praised her multiple times I would actually be surprised.
Dude doesn't seem like a little backstabbing weasel. I say this having of course never once met him, so he could be.
Originally posted by SurturAlso people are calling her a Nazi for what she said... isn't that exactly the same vein of hyperbole? It's Nazinception
She compared how some go after conservatives to nazis going after the jews.Hyperbolic sure. Will Disney be cutting ties with every single actor from the last 4 years that made any comments comparing Trump to Hitler, Republicans to nazis, ice detention centers to concentration camps, etc?
Nope, hell they'd lose half their marvel roster.
Makes me glad I just torrent stuff from Disney these days.

Maybe, but the recent outpouring of support for Pedro Pascal's transgender sister shines more light on the fact.
Yeah the consistency is important....gonna just leave this here......

Jokes about trans people bad, years worth of pedo jokes about kids tho is okay.Loving these consistent Disney standards.
Gunn, however, made a bunch of jokes about 'trannies'
Also let us not forget that Disney calling Carano "abhorrent and unacceptable" for what she said comes from the company that made a film in the country and province that was undertaking a literal genocide at the time
But leftoids are happy mean confrontational woman got fired. Yay, social justice. God, what a mess the 'left' is.
Originally posted by QuincyAre any of the videos or articles in the left image made or written by the same people as those on the right? Or is this another meaningless contrivance that people deal in so haphazardly these days?

I've seen this meme go around as a pure 'gotcha' and honestly it's very funny that anyone thinks this proves anything at all, some fans were going overboard about 'woke Star Wars' and some are angry over Carano's firing, I'm sure there's some Venn-diagram of overlap, but it doesn't actually prove a single thing other than 'people have opinions on thing'

That's a good question you should tweet the person who made it and ask them directly.

Okay so "people have opinions" I totally get. Why does that make the anti-sjw crowd "different opinions" but you're comfortable painting "the left" as all being a mess and agreeing with each other?
Originally posted by QuincyThere is an orthodoxy of woke-alignment rn, so perhaps I should just say 'wokists' or something. Because I'm distinctly left-aligned myself, as are many of my friends who don't suck at political dissemination. But this woke-orthodoxy form of leftism dominates left-wing thought and action right now.

The reason I hate the SJW crowd so particularly is because they are making a mockery of left-wing politics, and through cancel culture and wokism are betraying the working classes by appealing to the corporate aristocracy to weaponise employment. Few people who are left-aligned are willing to call this out, and are more than happy to indulge the partisan idiocy of the kind of memes you posted and continue the capitalist-inspired 'Culture War' (in which the only winners are brands and companies), instead of focusing on the current of this discourse and where it will ultimately lead, i.e. absolute authoritarianism enforced socially by a corporate-enamoured monoculture of schizophrenic moral purity.
