It’s been a rough couple of years for the House of Mouse, otherwise known as The Walt Disney Company. They’ve produced bomb after bomb at the box office and even on their streaming service. Much of this is the result of the corporation’s decision to go all out in the woke department, a decision that the board of directors and investors have to regret big time.
Another decision they might soon come to regret is the one they made in 2021 to fire actress and former professional mixed martial artist Gina Carano from their hit television series, «The Mandalorian,» which is part of the «Star Wars» franchise.
According to a report from Variety, Carano is now suing both Disney and Lucasfilm for booting her from the popular program, a choice that was made after the company seemed to disagree with a post she made on social media. Carano reposted a meme that compared how the Nazis convinced people to hate Jews for being Jewish to how the left convinces people to hate others for their personally held political views.
I guess it’s safe to say Disney is not a big fan of freedom of speech, which is ironic given the fact it’s this very right that enables them to produce the woke content they are putting out on a regular basis. Perhaps they feel they are entitled to have this freedom, and anyone who disagrees with the progressive agenda they are pushing is not?
Here’s more from the report:
The suit, filed in California federal court, alleges wrongful termination and discrimination, as well as a demand that the court should force Lucasfilm to recast her.
