“Man, Lovecraft Country was so good. I don’t understand why they would end it after one season.”
“Man, Lovecraft Country was so good. I don’t understand why they would end it after one season.”
Yeah, also even if her argument was, and a court upheld that, her speech was “political in nature” — that’s still not a protected class when dealing with a private entity/employer (except potentially in Washington DC, where political party is apparently a protected class).
The hypocrisy of the right never fails to impress me. It’s always “the woke mob is forcing their views on us” until they lose some level of visibility, at which point they want to literally force someone else to publicise them.
I like to think that if I had Musk’s vast fortune, I’d do good with it: give to charities, fund research, be a patron of the arts. But they say money changes you, and maybe I’d become a selfish prick. I’m not so full of myself as to say that could never happen.
Gina Carano: “I want to encourage conversation.”
A refusal to meet with GLAAD for half an hour to save her career shows some real dedication to being anti-LGBTQ.
She didn’t play a barefoot and pregnant tradwife, so it was deemed too woke.
IF she wins (unlikely) and they have to hire her back (not gonna happen), here’s her re-introduction to the world of The Mandalorian:
Mando: Hey, where you been?
Dune: I...
[huge explosion totally evaporates character]
Mand0: Oops, must have been a landmine there.
Grogu: [makes cute gurgling sound]
So let me get this straight:
Bring her character back, but make the storyline about Cara Dune going through a gender transition before saving the town from a racist group storming the space-capitol hill.
Let me break down that $13,000 because it’s funny. Russia accounted for $9,400 of that, and United Arab Emirates accounted for $3,600. Box Office Mojo puts the domestic gross at “—”, which I suppose means zero. However, I found another site that reports the domestic gross as $804.
In case you’re wondering why she’s suing now:
If Elon Musk was really funding this lawsuit in the name of free speech (and I know, we all know he’s not, just humor me for a second), pick a random fucking nobody who was let go because of what they wrote on Twitter, not an entertainer who presumably had a fanbase before she even launched her acting career that she…
That dummy completely squandered having a whole show dedicated to her terrible acting just to score cheap likes from terminally online culture warriors.
She wasn’t fired, though. Her contract was up & they didn’t renew it.
“Some of us have been unjustly singled out, harassed, persecuted, and had our livelihoods stripped away because we dared to encourage conversation, asked questions, and refused to go along with the mob.”
shhh i wanna see him have to hire back those twitter employees he fired for criticizing him
I look forward to these people someday realizing that freedom of speech does not actually mean freedom from consequence when you’re talking about a private corporation/entity/employer. Yes, Gina and Elon, you can say whatever the hell you want. But you can still face the repercussions.
Gonna play some Chicks tracks and a few Kris Kristofferson tunes today.
