    So I'm confused, I don't have Disney+ and have never watched the show in question or heard of the actress that had the audacity to express a differing opinion but I'm curious; based on physical features and her name I could be forgiven for thinking that she is of some other origin than white supremacist so how is it that she is being sacrificed for woke points? Are the woke starting to eat their own?

    That it might take people's minds off escapist entertainment and encourage them to contemplate what is happening in the realz?
    It could also have been a reminder that, although Walt is on ice, the company he created still likes to cozy up to foreign powers with a reputation for putting their own people in camps

    Perhaps she had simply had enough of biting her tongue and hiding her opinion? You know, it happens outside of INGO, too

    Well, at least temporarily; as the post has been deleted. One would assume that she regrets her decision to "keep it real," and for the record, I like Gina, and have followed her well before she got famous in MMA. That said, careerwise, her actions seem.... foolish.

    While you may not like it, is he wrong?

    Could she have known what tweeting something like that would do to her career? Especially at Disney. Hell, not only could she have known, she should have known. Sure it sucks, but that is the world we live in.
    I have a hard time believing you think it is better to keep your mouth shut rather than speak the truth.

    Kit, I understand, but you surprise me.

    That is not what I think is best. It is what I think is real. I pretty much agree with what she posted. I surely support her right to do so.

    How many examples have we seen where someone tweets something that the wokerati don't like and they suffer for it? If that person is in entertainment, it will be worse. If they work for a company like Disney that wants to lead in the realm of corporate wokeness, they are doomed. I honestly do not see how anyone can think that the tweet in question would not garner the backlash it did. I hope she is able to rebound from this and continue her career if that is what she wants.

    Oh, it doesn’t matter your race or even party affiliation. She refused to conform. They canceled her.

    It isn't so much the issue of the reality on the street at the moment as the condescending attitude I would expect from the type of person who will pledge allegiance to whatever flag is offered.

    MSNBC host takes heat for incorrectly fact-checking Ted Cruz​

    If a tree falls in the forest and no one hears it, does it make a sound?

    She got 10k likes from Idiots, that video got 7k.

    Thanks for posting. The left still believes he is an idiot and there is no way to change their minds, they are brain washed by the likes of Andria Mitchell.

    A lie can get half way around the world while the truth is still putting it's shoes on.
    (or something like that)

    Every time I see this it reminds me of the Mike and The Mechanics song Silent Running. If you listen to it, it seems rather appropriate today IMHO.
    As a matter of fact that was running through my mind as I posted. Some things just can't be improved!

    Seriously though, I have a serious problem with criticizing a person for not bowing before a new "normal" which is wrongly usurping the position of our proper circumstances. In my reckoning that is the mark of a person who adheres no particular values who will conform to the most expedient vehicle of self-promotion.
