The contentious post from Carano highlighted the bullying tactics employed by the German government to vilify Jewish people prior to the full onslaught in WWII. She drew parallels between that historical context and the present political climate in America, where conservatives often face discrimination.
In response, Carano has taken legal action against Disney, filing a lawsuit for her termination. She's gained substantial support, with Twitter owner Elon Musk prominently backing her in this legal battle.
From Independent Sentinel:
“Today is an important day for me–I am filing a lawsuit against @lucasfilm & @Disney,” wrote Gina Carano on X. The former Disney star Gina Carano was fired under leftist Bob Chapek for offensive speech. Elon Musk was looking for the right free speech case, and he chose hers.
She was fired very unfairly after being vilified by the cancel culture. Disney caved.
One of Carano’s Instagram posts featured a person with several masks covering their face and head with the caption: “Meanwhile in California.”
It read, “Jews were beaten in the streets, not by Nazi soldiers but by their neighbors…even by children. Because history is edited, most people today don’t realize that to get to the point where Nazi soldiers could easily round up thousands of Jews, the government first made their own neighbors hate them simply for being Jews. How is that any different from hating someone for their political views,” she wrote.
None of what she wrote was bigoted, quite the opposite. Recently, Elon Musk’s lawyers contacted her. They want her case to become a key free speech case, and she has enthusiastically agreed.
Another ‘offensive’ post warned of the dangers in today’s cancel culture climate.
