Disappointing but unsurprising. Same goes for other Netflix employees. I know this article says it was hundreds of protesters but I read other reports that the walkout number was closer to 100 folks.

I’m not going to defend Gina Carano (because forget her ignorant ass) but the Holocaust comment from Soloway was... not it
