[Nintex]

It's a big hoopla over nothing. Since when do we look at actors as a moral compass. Let's face it, most of them aren't that bright and just repeat the cookie cutter opinion or take of one side or the other. Her take being herp derp this is just like the holocaust. Ken Levine is right firing her changes nothing.

[Don Rumata]

I missed it, but they cancelled Gina Carano.

https://twitter.com/empiremagazine/status/1359751520963747844

Let's see - she publicly professed herself as pro-Trump, anti-democracy, anti-vaccination, anti-mask, and stopped short of TERF territory but balked at using people's preferred pronouns. This is just… consequences.

Nah, this is just usual collective back patting.
Why are Disney so angry about Holocaust comparisons, when they sucked China's dick while shooting Mulan where they had literal, ongoing, concentration camps trying to genocide an ethnic group?

Gina Carano is a cunt, so no love lost, but this is, as usual, pathetic people on the Internet pretending the evil is defeated, while giving more and more power to it.

Bad Tweets > Actual genocide, as long as you get cheap labour and get to act as the hero all the same.

You can think hey fuck Disney and also hey fuck Gina good they fired her at the same time. Nothing is stopping you from doing that.

I am doing that, i don't give a shit about her, and just called her a cunt?

But i mean nerds have become the emblem of the idea of consumer as domesticated cattle.
I don't see a story like this as any kind of triumph, and there's people literally thanking disney on social media, to me it's absolutely a grotesque display.
And actions like this do nothing more than further create the illusion of these toy makers as benevolent forces, whether consciously or subconsciously.

Makes me want to eat the wrong side of a gun, for real.

Again, just in case it isn't clear, not because this moron was (understandably) fired, but because of the surrounding context.

[Pissy F Benny]

if you want a squeaky clean actor whos not gonna show you up with crazy facebook posts, why would you hie an mma fighter in the first place

[GreatSageEqualOfHeaven]

where she fucked up, was in not making the more apt comparison between cancel culture and McCarthyism.

Even so, I find it hard to believe in peoples genuine offence at a "you guys are being total nazis about this" comment, or to see that as an expression of antisemitism.

[Don Rumata]

If this situation makes you want to eat a gun, maybe you should

I know, but atm i have people that depend on me to survive.

I could let them go homeless though, could get a free Disney+ subscription out of it, with a pitiful enough Insta Story.

[Tasty]

Cancel culture be like

[Sideshow Raheem]

I'm just wondering where the hell cancel culture was when the idiot Jenny McCarthy was claiming she cured her child with voodoo and then promoted anti-vaccination nonsense across multiple platforms and for goddamn years.

It's embarrassing we -- and by we I mean you -- care so deeply about what celebrities think and say. If we simply learned to dismiss them except as someone who's good at dunking a basketball or making funny faces, etc., we wouldn't ever have to harp on whether they should be canceled.

Meanwhile, Mandalorian could use more original ideas and characters instead of dredging up miscellanea from KOTOR, the cartoons, and the movies. It could actually have put Cara Dune (sp?) to good use. But she's a doofus in real life, so she should never act again.

EDIT: Mandalorian.

[Don Rumata]

if someone is that riled up over Disney/Gina Carano, it's likely their lives are absolutely miserable anyway so

C'mon son, i told you twice it wasn't about Gina Carano, you're being dense on purpose? 
I'm riled up by mega companies becoming more and more like government and religious institutions, all in one.

I dunno, I mean half the movies in the top 20 IMDB list probably starred problematic people.
Just to name a few things with all these big films.

The Godfather - Marlon Brando was always a controversial character
The Godfather: Part II  - Robert Duvall is a hardcore Trumper
The Dark Knight - Michael Caine famously said "you can't vote for an actor just because he's black"
Schindler's List - Liam Neeson wanted to beat up some random black people in the streets at night
The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King - Sean Bean was arrested for throwing a glass at his wife
Pulp Fiction - John Travolta never was the same after his son died and was a cray scientologist even before that
Fight Club - Brad Pitt had an agressive drinking problem so Angelina GTFO

Disney's big fluffy star Robert Downey Jr. was literally pulled out the dumpster by Mel Gibson, who was cancelled before cancel culture existed.

Gina Carano's TikTok is somewhere at the bottom of 'offenses' commited by actors under contract or once under contract at Disney.
So I'm not really sure what their goal is. I would focus on shielding their talent and prevent them to mingle openly in the public debate.
Hell, those sick fucks in Hollywood still cheer on Woody Allen and Roman Polanski whenever they get the chance.

Gina Carano Hits Back, Announces New Movie Project With Ben Shapiro’s Daily Wire: “They Can’t Cancel Us If We Don’t Let Them”

No one could have predicted this 

[Human Snorenado]

Say what you will about the turds at reeeeeeee but the edgelord presence here is getting kinda gross

"Oh sure she's borderline rewriting the holocaust and is basically a q anon supporter but the real crime here is a private enterprise deciding who can work for it in a way that seems woke"

Apparently calling her a cunt, a moron and outright saying she was rightfully fired for her shit, isn't enough to make my point clear. 
If it weren't Human Snorenado i'd be worried.

I really only have one question for the starwars thread and that's why do you support fascism Rumata?

[Nintex]

Disney: "This lady has said bad things about the covid" 
Meanwhile they pushed reopening their parks during the height of the pandemic.

Guess who went straight to streaming and didn't have to fire any of his actors for awful behaviour?
That's right, Zack Snyder

They taped 2 seasons of a TV show with this lady and now they pretend they didn't know she was messed up? 
The company named after and founded by a fascist, anti-semitic, anti-labor union conservative that sold out his own staff to McCarthy fires an actor for saying bad things about the holocaust.
If Disney was serious about this stuff they would've changed their name ages ago but they haven't because they're a bunch of hypocrites. Always have been, always will be.

Disney's show lost a popular character and the actor went further down the rabbit hole. I don't think there are any winners here. 
I dunno, ban her from TikTok and send her to the company shrink. Cancelling seems like the easy way out for the mouse for casting an anti-semite in their popular TV show which is still streaming by the way. Because it is not ok to employ her but is ok to make money from her performance

Yeah, I honestly thought she didn't have a career after like the 2010s. Was surprised to hear she was in the show.

The reality is she said really shit stuff while being employed by a company that cares about their image a lot.

But it was probably easier to fire her because yeah she's a woman, she's not that big of a star, and yeah it probably is more acceptable to fire these MAGA people. But the truth is she said some shit things that no company would want to be associated with. These people cry about freedom of speech, but that's not a catch-all defense. It doesn't stop people from responding in kind.  Maybe reflect on what you said and why people think it's shitty. I'm tired of this complaint about "cancel culture" as if it's something new.

[Uncle]

I'm tired of this complaint about "cancel culture" as if it's something new.

I think there is a basis for saying the mechanisms surrounding cancel culture are new and possibly worse than before

this doesn't necessarily apply to gina and what it took to get her fired, but in general, the concept of reporting on people to their bosses in an attempt to destroy their livelihood -- in the 1970s people couldn't easily search up everything a person has said on a public platform they carry with them every day for the express purpose of saying a lot of random things

now if you say bad things on there, certainly you're a moron doing it to yourself, but we also have people willing to hunt through a decade of things you've said to find one bad thing and signal boost it DIRECTLY to your employers...along with a neet culture that now has enough free time on its hands to be able to do these hunts all day long

I think there was a point in time when the average nobody living 500 miles away didn't go directly to your boss and tell him to fire you, and equivalent to that, a point in time when your boss would've just laughed and told him to fuck off

Decades ago you had to be careful about what you said about God or sex.

that's the best/worst part about this, the lack of awareness at how promoting certain types of behaviors could possibly turn around and bite you in the ass someday, when the christians did it, and now when ultra-progressives do it

I do think in the past it happened less often because there was more of a togetherness/unitedness, we were all in this together, and you might hate someone but you didn't necessarily want to see them homeless, so you'd bite your tongue and let living well be the best revenge

we're beyond that now and it's really fun to make people lose their jobs it's like so fucking awesome you guys

Are you pretending the last 10 or so years of social media evolution and integration in people's lives (and culture in general) didn't significantly change how the public interact with one another as well as these companies?
Obviously if you live in a society (ah!) you can't do and say whatever, but there's plenty of nuance in how that is handled and develops, beyond that very broad statement of fact.
I mean i know someone who got passed over on a job interview mainly because they didn't have a social media account, and that was seen as "suspect", so these platforms are becoming more than just "some private service you do to socialize", they are closer to direct extensions of democracy.

Whether that's good or bad, it's another matter, but i think it's a very complex problem, that shouldn't be shrugged off so easily.

Should be illegal and I wish you were in a position that naming and shaming these people would do something.

The former president just got acquitted based on his team complaining about cancel culture so I can't imagine that is going anywhere for a while.

Don’t confuse your politicians being shit scared power hungry worms acquitting Trump with that being a issue of Free Speech vs Cancel Culture.

You are playing in their hands if you fail to recognize the political theater as anything but that.

But anyway if this is the direction we're moving in, if in the future our digital presence is something that's gonna be a given, if not an obligation, that to me is too much power given to private companies.

No I agree that with the internet not only is it easier for what you say to be "archived", but now whats much easier for random strangers to comment on it as well.

I think my point is that being "canceled" has always existed. But now it has been like everything in the world expanded upon, by the digital age.

Who broadcasts their every thought even now? Why do you think future generations will?
There is a whole generation right now who grew up with the internet and learned to manage their online personas just fine (same as they've learned to manage their offline personas). And as they take over, they will be increasingly surrounded by people who have also grown up with the internet and share their values.

The kids are going to be OK.

Part of a quick montage at the end of #theriseofskywalker Fun building Bespin under pressure. Only had a day to work this out because it was late in the production and we were all under the gun. Note: scale of Star Destroyer is waaay off. Mainly because the team was looking for a dramatic composition.

One day for start-to-finish on a piece of "final" concept art seems... pretty rushed.

He's reporting to Kennedy, who is never going away, so if you're one of those people, just keep being mad I guess.

Whoever "those people" are, I can assure you I'm not one of them. Star Wars was a huge part of my childhood and i'd like it to return to some sort of quality. Filoni seems like he is on the right track and I think it would be a good decision to give him creative control. If they didn't, then so be it, I'm not about to go shoot up a theatre about it. I will, however, reserve the right to complain about it on theboredotcom with all the other nerds.
