[quote]Gina Carano has been dropped from “The Mandalorian” after
the actress posted comments Lucasfilm said it considers
“abhorrent” on her social media.
...
Carano came under fire on Wednesday as the hashtag
#FireGinaCarano trended over an Instagram post comparing being
Republican today to being Jewish during Nazi Germany.
“Jews were beaten in the streets, not by Nazi soldiers but by
their neighbors…even by children. 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,” wrote Carano.
...
Carano has spent much of 2020 sharing some particularly
obnoxious political opinions on social media — including what
looked a lot like support for baseless conspiracy theories and
lies about nonexistent voter fraud in states that went for Joe
Biden on Nov. 5, just two days after the election.
And only 9 days after that she invited people to join her on
Parler, the social media platform preferred by right wing
extremists. And shortly after that shared another baseless
conspiracy theory against Democrats and mask-wearing.[/quote]

Apparently, this was not the first time a Western "star" out of
Hollywood and rightist has compared how they are treated for
their views to how Jews were treated in Germany during the Third
Reich:

Hollywoodism: Jews, Movies and the American Dream (1998)
[quote]An Empire of Their Own: How the Jews Invented Hollywood
is a 1988 non-fiction book whose topic is the careers of several
prominent Jewish film producers in the early years of Hollywood.
Author Neal Gabler focuses on the psychological motivations of
these film moguls, arguing that their background as Jewish
immigrants from Eastern Europe shaped their careers and
influenced the movies they made.
The book was adapted into a documentary film in 1998, a decade
after the book was published. The movie has two titles:
Hollywoodism: Jews, Movies and the American Dream (original
title for A&E) and Hollywood: An Empire of Their Own (title for
video/DVD). The documentary won an award for Best Jewish
Experience Documentary at the 1998 Jerusalem Film Festival. -

Muslims in Pre- and Post-9/11 Contexts
[quote]Muslims have never ceased to be important for the West
and have been depicted in vilifying and stereotypical manners in
western literature and films. However, after the tragic event of
9/11, a dramatic change has been observed in the world’s focus
towards Muslims. Although stereotypes and discriminatory actions
were nothing new to Muslims, the post-9/11 backlash was
absolutely terrible and heartbreaking. People have started to
consider Muslims either terrorists or sympathetic to terrorists,
and they have been suspected and distrusted. Lots of books,
articles and films have depicted Muslims in a derogatory and
extreme manner. Pre-9/11 Hollywood movies True Lies and The
Siege explicitly show the stereotypical attitude of the West to
Muslims while post-9/11 novels like The Reluctant Fundamentalist
by Mohsin Hamid and Once in a Promised Land by Laila Halaby
depict the plight and predicament of Muslims in America. The
article aims to depict the stereotypical, vilifying and
antagonistic attitudes of the West to Arabs and Muslims in both
pre- and post- 9/11 era. It also aims to prove that the
depiction is highly motivated by the media, western authorities
and the West’s desire for social, cultural and political
dominance over the East.[/quote]

You are correct. The sex offender in your poster has not yet
been successfully banned from standing in future elections.

BOYCOTT STRUCTUBE!
HTML https://montreal.ctvnews.ca/quebec-furniture-chain-structube-apologizes-after-giving-arab-men-s-names-to-trash-bins-1.5308495
[quote]Structube caught some serious online flak for giving a
pair of trashcans common Arab men's names.
A stainless steel bin named "Walid" and garbage can named
"Wassim" have been removed from the store's website, and the
company apologized for using the monikers on its Twitter feed.
...
The apology prompted a series of responses with none of the
commenters accepting the mea culpa as genuine.
"Honestly disappointed," wrote Twitter user Noor Akbari. "I
always bought my furniture there when I bought my house. Felt
just right to encourage Quebec's commerces. And then this
happens."[/quote]

CANCEL CHRIS HARRISON!
HTML https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9257689/The-Bachelors-Chris-Harrison-stands-TV-special-defended-race-row-contestant.html
[quote]The 49-year-old's future on the show is unclear as calls
grow for his firing over the race row which erupted over his
defense of contestant Rachael Kirkconnell's past allegedly
racist behavior.
Harrison said in a controversial interview with former
Bachelorette star Rachel Lindsay that people should show
'compassion' toward Kirkconnell, despite photos surfacing of her
at a plantation-themed party and her liking photos on social
media of the Confederate flag.[/quote]

Covered this on the previous page as well. Chris Harrison said
"the woke police are out there" in the interview about this
incident. If he had any brains he would have arrived at the
conclusion that the 'anti-racists' out there are sick and tired
of you and your types bullshit and they're done with it. Plain
and simple. That is what is happening right now in conjunction
with cancel culture. Only idiots or dishonest people could
arrive at a different conclusion than that. Harrison probably
also doesn't realize that anti-racists have been watching
"black" people get murdered by police for simply being "black"
well over two decades now, with a definite uptick in those types
of scenarios over the last decade. These types of imbeciles are
so sickening and infuriating!
