(999 posts)Sad to me because I did like her ability to look both beautiful and a woman not to be messed with. Shes a former MMA fighter and I like female MMA fighters that prove that women can be just as physically strong as men.

This gives wingnuts more ammo for the cancel culture assault.

(17,863 posts)but I tend to agree with you. I liked her in The Mandalorian. I mean she just kept touching the rail with social media. It is almost like she wanted to be a martyr. I hate seeing martyr's created. Her post was ignorant and hurtful. I would prefer to see some opinion show with a more liberal bent invite her on to explain her position.
We aren't going to get anywhere without talking to one another.

MAGA's Terrorist who attacked the capital are assholes who are expressing their ignorance and at least a base ability to be extremely gullible if not outwardly racist.
I don't believe I have to type this here

(10,156 posts)She knew what she was doing. But even the main star Pedro Pascal was done with her because of her transphobic behavior and his sister is a transwoman.

That's why there are HR departments

That sounds precisely like an excuse to do nothing. Do you then believe consequences to a consistent and regular negative action should be tempered simply because it may give others ammunition to criticize holding someone responsible for their words and deeds (which again, sounds precisely like a win-win scenario for the RW... who get their cake and east it to in your scenario)?
If not, what is the relevant and precise difference?
If so, should your sentiment be applied consistently (e.g., impartially and equitably) or is your admonition against consequence peculiar to this specific case only?

Since November 2020, former MMA fighter Gina Carano has been attracting social media ire through her controversial posts that started with her mocking the need for wearing masks amidst the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, transphobic tweets, followed by her spreading the false news that voter fraud has occurred during the recently held presidential elections. #FireGinaCarano has been trending for a long time as fans of The Mandalorian constantly sought her removal from the series as her contentious posts continued.
