I'll counter that with the assertion that her dismissal and purging, toys and books removed, reveals very poor management and double standards as well as something far more sinister. Obviously a business has every right to want an employee to play ball as well as who they associate with, but it's an overreaction to something minor if they are going far past an employee sacking and instead trying to remove all trace of her. This is provable fact when her toyline has been canceled and those Mando books were canceled, likely since she was in them. What if Disney goes on to edit out her appearances in Mando S1 and S2? Do you support that?Thebestoftherest wrote: ↑Wed Mar 24, 2021 2:36 am Are you willing to accept it her own fault for not knowing when to close her mouth (so to speak)?
The fault lies with the head managers. Sure, Ms. Carano knew about the double standard, but isn't it admirable for someone to stick to their guns despite corporate and social pressure? Do you lefties just want conformity to what YOU believe? That's how it feels to me. You think America is going Nazi Germany via right-wing politics, but many German acquaintances I have think it's due to the leftist bent we have now. I think more personally that the ruling elites just find useful patsies in the naive left to use to divide us further and conservatives are merely a convenient scapegoat since some of the worst presidents of the last few decades were republican affiliated. This is just a poor business decision. How often have we seen an article from some MSM outlet like The Hill with the disclaimer "the content is this article is an opinion piece and whose views do not reflect the outlet." That's sound business, as the Forbes article laid out. I've had people in my own retail outlet employ similar management tactics.
Let's not shift the goalposts to put the blame on her. Mr. Pascal put pronouns in his bios, but that she didn't... how about ALL the other employees there who didn't? "Beep Bop Beep" isn't mockery of trans people if they weren't such triggered snowflakes they can't take a JOKE. Call me a hillbilly all day long, I'd probably laugh right along with you. What's that say about marginalized groups nowadays? It feels like professional victimhood. But Disney has no clear standard of behavior for their employees, otherwise people wouldn't feel so unsettled by this. If it's okay for Mr. Pascal to make commentary on Nazi Germany, why not conservatives? Or do you really think they should just be purged and blacklisted? Do you think that's right? Do you think tolerance is reserved only for those who share your viewpoints and those with an opposing philosophy shouldn't be defended?
