Exactly! Because no one should have the right to discuss difficult subjects in a public arena.

I have had 8 Incinerator Troopers shipped to my house so far. All of them are garbage. 9 and 10 are on their way (hopefully properly put in a box and not a bag).
What does it take to send ONE mint figure to a customer? |

She has the right to her views, but if you work for an entity that has the kind of clauses that she agreed to, she should've known better.

1:10 odds maybe? For me it was 1:2 with the Djarin packs.

Discuss? Sure But say crazy shit, multiple times over the course of multiple months, and you run the risk of getting fired. She still has freedom of speech. She has not been jailed and is free to say what she wants. Freedom of speech does not mean the freedom to never be fired. If I walked around my job spouting nonsense where the owners could hear it, well, that shit could get me fired too. Common sense. My Disney + is not getting cancelled.

Common sense. “Jews were beaten in the streets, not by Nazi soldiers but by their neighbors.... even by children." The actor continued to say, “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?” I can’t speak to her other posts, but I don’t think that’s a crazy or offensive statement. She drew a parallel from history on how you can arrive at a terrible point from where we are now. It’s not a safe time in our culture to have unpopular beliefs or opinions. We used to be able to respectfully disagree. I valued people of different convictions challenging mine - sometimes helping me to learn, sometimes affirming why I believe differently. We aren’t there anymore. |

We aren’t there anymore. Pretty sure it wasn't solely that statement that got her fired. She has been going on about the election being stolen, about the virus and vaccine, etc. Soooo comments about politics, a pandemic, AND the holocaust? Again, you may have freedom of speech, but your employer also has the freedom to fire you. (Hell, in the state of Florida, they don't even have to provide a reason for termination).

I've let this last one roll on for a few months now because I thought there was some change in the system, but it looks like I was wrong. I may use a friend's account to watch shows or I'll just pirate them from now on. Quote:

If I walked around my job spouting nonsense where the owners could hear it, well, that shit could get me fired too. Common sense. My Disney + is not getting cancelled. If she was spouting nonsense, maybe, but even then I'd probably push back. There are limits, for example when I worked for Halliburton, participating in a Green Peace protest of Halliburton could get me fired. But that's not what Carano did. She just advocated for people to be free to live in accordance to their values, and pushed back against blindly following whatever parameters the mainstream mouth pieces are spewing that day. And here recent posts comparing the current back and forth harassment based on political affiliation is fairly on point. I don't think being fired for being accurate on the modern zeitgeist should be an offense worthy of termination. Quote:
