I read that as well. She will either have to offer her sincerest apologies for being "misspoken" or risk being unemployed by standing her ground. It will be interesting to see which she opts for since her great "travesty" will spread over the Internet like wildfire.
Apparently too before she was fired, she did make a statement to Disney and said, "You can't win. If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine."

A feminist role model and WOmandalorian - kicked to the curb

Star Justice Wars will for totes shove the light saber of social justice right through the heart of your twister profile if you dare challenge the power of the dark side.

How about some music to help calm everyones nerves -

Ben Shapiro has some interesting insight into the Gina Carano situation.

I’m confused.

Last year I remember many from the Left defending Gina Carano(not that she needs defending) for commentary about her increased size.

Virtue signalling type of social commentary around “body shaming”.

As a fan of martial sports and Gina Carano I distinctly remember it.

As well as the upside/downside.

Downside: I was no longer confident I could take her in a fight.

Upside: I was much more confident I could outrun her to avoid fighting her.

But now those same Leftists hate her.

“Beep Bob Boop” was hysterical, but it was also a a point of no return.

I’d like to see Dave Chappelle pontificate on it, as I think he is one of the few untouchable comedians left.

Joe Rogan needs to book Gina Carano so this can be discussed in long-form without risk of being cancelled or malignantly “soundbit”.
