Gina Carano fired

[Captain Crimson]

I kinda suspect Ahsoka's gonna be dragged back for a few more episodes here and there. I know she's getting her own spin-off, but what we see, IMO, is the beginning of Ahsoka Overload. She didn't die in Order 66, as Mr. Lucas wanted. She didn't die while fighting Vader. And Mr. Filoni has hinted that she has survived past TROS.

Though you're right, but there's also these rumors Mr. Pascal could be quitting. Though at least it's confirmed he has TLOU TV show as first priority. Plus the rumors about the behind-the-scenes drama with him and the executives. I don't know if Boba Fett would be enough to sustain TM alone, but who knows.

On a related note, Double Toasted's Korey Coleman tackles the issue of online cancel culture.

Yeah, those who talks the loudest and have the least to say seems to all claim to have been silenced.

I mean you're basically comparing people that went on a massive sexist campaign of harassing women to people that are noticing that there is a vast inequality in our society. And I say this as someone who was pro-gamergate at its height.

Anyways the general idea I was basing what I was saying upon was that people are generally going to grow into either a right-wing or left-wing mindset. Some reasons more common than others.

Social media generally follows the same trend, but it's distinct in that textual communication was broadly unprecedented, like this forum here, where we express ideas much more comprehensively (among other attributes).

General debate is no longer expected to happen in a pressured one-on-one dialog, which does a lot to ground out inaccurate or imprecise measures of social assessment due to any number of logical fallacies that get exhibited in social curriculum.

So my question from there is not "which side is right," but just "what are the political currents that guide" in the discourse. Of course I'm not going to say that libertarianism is just generally equal in principle consideration to the likes of civil liberties and identity politics and welfare inequality -- like try to say that three times fast I dare you. But I don't think that the obvious inclination to who's right really breaks the right-left mold that was already established.

Social media is essentially the new operating system political digest among the public for the same computer.

Yeah. Glad to see her get some fame by starring on Mickey Mouse's "attempt to save Star Wars wreck with baby Yoda" and much respect for her standing on her principles even when the Twitter Libs go mad over her tweets. Glad to see she's already got another job... oh and yeah - Gina being the most popular actress in the world right now sure doesn't hurt. Overall couldn't be happier. I'm curious how Disney share-owners will react to the news that Kathleen Kennedy fired the most popular actress in the world. Should be another fun dumpster-fire to watch. Probably even better than Last Jedi

Also a fun question for the wonderful "I'm SO offended for other people's sake!" folks on this forum: Isn't it weird that after Gina's "anti-semitic" post she was hired by an orthodox Jew?

[Thebestoftherest]

Yeah, you do know controversy don't last right, two anyone can edit that so it like using wikiapedia as a source.

[Fuzzy Necromancer]

tyrteg, how do you feel about the Dixie Chicks and Colin Kaepernick?

[Thebestoftherest]

Haepernick is that Russian?

[Beelzquill]

Kaepernick is the football player who knelt during the national anthem.
