Agreed, but i see how some might make the argument that if they rehired Gunn (and Pascal also made several Nazi comparison tweets) it’s hypocritical. It’s irrelevant because they can fire her for any reason in “at will” employment, but this and the recent NYT chaos brings up the creeping question of just how big this snowball is going to get now it’s rolling

Prophetic?

I don't know on what planet that saying we are in a situation that might lead to another holocaust constitutes deserving "sowing" and losing your job and probably your career constitutes some just "reaping", but it sounds like a pretty fucktarded planet.

Planet Fucktard. We have arrived.

Ironically, if she’d tweeted that in Germany she’d be in prison quick time. Not just yesterday’s one but her previous anti trans tweets.
They take hate speech really seriously and online.
How could you possibly think she is defending Germany here? She is some kind of nazi for invoking the horrors of the holocaust? Do you realize how little sense you are making here? Where is the irony?

Germany isn't renowned for its liberalism and free speech, but what you said is false, and even if it were true, i don't live in Germany. But apparently you think Germany is some depotic nightmare. Who the fuck would request that here?

Do you think she should be imprisoned? If anyone thinks people should be imprisoned for saying what she said, they're a cunt and can fuck right off.


dimejinky99 wrote: Twitter and Facebook are also stepping up crackdowns on covid conspiracy and anti vaccine and anti mask posts.
Yeah, they are censors who are pro-censorship. Because giant tech companies censor, that makes this ok? You act like that because Facebook and Twitter decided to censor something, that its become some objective evil. It may be evil or it might not, but Facebook or Twitter's opinion on the matter is irrelevant. You're making some weak appeal to authority here, and one you don't even believe in.
dimejinky99 wrote: Being a bigot and whipping up her base against trans people, and the covid denial of it all
is putting peoples lives in real danger and her ‘free speech’ rights doesn’t trump that.
Saying bigot here is meaningless drivel. No, putting beep/bop/boop in your twitter and then apologizing profusely for it does not make one a bigot lol. No one's life is put in danger by anything she has said on Twitter. You know what is dangerous? You know what is infinitely, MATERIALLY MORE DANGEROUS TO TRANS PEOPLE? Giving the most powerful people on Earth the right to decide what we are allowed to say, and empowering them further to deplatform you, fire you, and - apparently in your world - even imprison you. And not just giving them the right, but clapping like trained seals when they do. This, again, is acting against your self interests, the self interests of trans people, and against the interests of everyone who isn't a billionaire.

Her Agent has also dumped her it seems so it looks like she’s had plenty of advice and chances to quit this and didn’t. So here are the consequences of her own actions.
There is no reason for her to quit doing anything. She didn't do anything remotely worthy of punishment. The consequences aren't remotely justifiable. And again, for the thousandth time, you are missing the greater problem. What some B-grade celebrity says on the internet is not even in the same problematic universe as the problem of the masses so eagerly giving even more power to ultra-powerful Disney executives.
dimejinky99 wrote: Her family own one of the biggest casino groups in the world and she’s an heiress it seems? I doubt she’ll be much affected by any of this. It’s probably that insulation from reality and consequences that has her thinking she can say stuff like this with no repercussions.
Wouldn't know, Don't care. I'm sure she will be fine. She could even benefit. What should worry you is the precedent this sets for regular people. But no one ever considers these hidden costs. They simply go "Thing bad. Make bad thing stop. Punish bad thing!" It's not even knee-jerk liberalism at this point. It's just mindlessness.

To be fair, not sure he has treated us better than the Hutu have treated the Tutsi in Rwanda.

I have no opinion on her comments because I have no idea what they were. I’m only concerned with the rights of her employer, and her ability to pursue legal recourse.
Well, she was warned:

Gonna stop there so I don’t get cancelled, but you can see the evil she was advocating

Burt it sounds like you’ve been personally hurt by this.
The above posts from here outline just some of her thinking.
If you don’t see the problem There’s no point in trying to help you there.

Also if you have ted Fucking Cruz coming good your defence, you have even bigger problems.

Dime, you literally just did in this post what she was ranting against... guilt by association
