How hypocritical is Disney? “The View” co-host Whoopi Goldberg was suspended for two weeks after saying the Holocaust “wasn’t about race.” Actress Gina Carano was fired from “The Mandalorian” and dropped by her agency for this Instagram post:
“Jews were beaten in the streets, not by Nazi soldiers but by their neighbors…even by children,” Carano wrote Instagram. “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.”
Disney CEO Bob Chapek, who recently bent the knee to the outrage mob over Florida’s Parental Rights in Education bill, clarified to shareholders that Disney is interested in standing for “values that are universal” such as “decency” and “integrity” … and teaching gender fluidity to kindergarteners.
Carano landed on her feet at The Daily Wire, and she’s set to appear at FAN EXPO Denver, which has upset the charity that benefits from the event. Pop Culture Classroom describes itself as “inspiring a love of learning, increasing literacy, celebrating diversity and building community through pop culture” and says it was not consulted over Carano’s appearance.
Statement from Pop Culture Classroom on Gina Carano’s scheduled appearance at FAN EXPO Denver:
“Pop Culture Classroom is committed to creating welcoming and inclusive spaces through our educational programs at FAN EXPO Denver.

Oh, shut up.
Can you specify the exact comments/actions that @ginacarano said/did that were so "at odds" with your organization? Awaiting your reply…

They can’t.

You could only find a problem with her past comments if you’ve never heard or read them.
I encourage everyone to stop just taking the word of would-be activists amongst media and corporate feints of virtue and actually investigate the details of supposed occurrences.

"Carano's past comments and actions are at direct odds with our organization's mission"
Gina's comments were about not being fooled into hating other people by those who would benefit from social division. So your 'mission' is actually all about division and hate, then?— tw_redsix (@TwRedsix) April 7, 2022
Still waiting to hear what Gina said that was against "diversity" and "inclusiveness". Based on this statement, it seems like you people are the ones that are against diversity (of thought) and inclusiveness (same).

"All are welcome, unless we don't like you, then you're not welcome"

We hope the charity refuses any money made by Carano’s fans, of whom there are many.
