I've heard about this and read about statements she made etc, but I've never read the actual statements. Can someone pretty please screenshot some damning stuff for me so I know what the fuss is all about?

In a nutshell, the outrage mob struck and Disney caved.

This is a pretty dumb reading of her situation, but not surprising bc you linked NYPOST. She's been told to stop posting conspiracies and hateful messages, and this was the last straw for Disney/PR firm. She's an anti-semite, anti-trans, and a science denier. What's the point of having her in your franchise?

Remember when celebrities had handlers to keep them off cocaine in the '80s? Today's new dangerous drug is social media.

This is your brain. This is your brain posting stupid shit on Twitter. This is your career being destroyed 10 seconds later.

The most outrageous thing in that article was the statement that Epstein did not kill himself

edit: lol wtf was i thinking, he obviously did NOT kill himself and my brain just backfired

Most actors/singers/miscellaneous entertainment personalities should stick to what they do for a living, I don't think parroting political discourses suits them well, though I understand it's expected of them nowadays.

She's an anti-semite, anti-trans, and a science denier.

Unless she has said dumber and more damning things than the stuff in that article, this is quite a big step to conclusions imo (she might still be a moron but getting fired for saying that voting should require and ID and that hating people for having different political opinions is a bit harsh

Agreed. The "Im offended" crowd would be offended, though.

But if she had tweeted anti trump or anti conservative stuff, she would still be employed. Hmmmm....

Nick Cannon is anti white and has said black people are superior. Why is he still employed?

She deleted or twitter deleted her anti-semetic memes.

This stuff has been going on for a while, and her PR firm told her to stop. Then she got dumped.

He did get fired from ViacomCBS then he apologized and then got hired back. What's your point? Gina had multiple chances to not be a dickbag and apologize to keep her job. She failed.

kathy griffin got fired for anti-trump jokes. There is a difference between anti-converstive/liberal stuff and truly hateful things like anti-Semitism and anti-trans stuff.

I highly doubt if she had apologized she would have kept her job. Its all hypothetical at this point

Point is, if a white person had said white people are superior, an apology wouldnt have done shit. And you know it

So what she did was write beep/boop/bop? That's not 100% evil and in my opinion you gotta be looking for it to even be insensitive. At worst, a bit tasteless as a joke. Then again, I'm not trans so maybe I don't get to decide.

Dumb, but not very extreme

Nah, I call this out as a storm in a teacup. Let her be wrong about shit if that's what she wants.

Epstein did not kill himself and the US government is corrupt as shit.

Stop using common sense. Fall in line and be assimilated.

Most people would agree that making fun of pronouns (in this way) is offensive to trans people and a form of discrimination.

If that's a fireable offence I sure hope no prospective employers look through my RC post history

 

[NAD]

Whatever she said was dumb blah blah cancel couture et cetera this fight scene fucking rules.

 

[NAD]

Even some of my fellow liberal peoples don't think Gina should've been fired. Good.

I mean they even canned the Cara Dune action figure. What sense does that make?!

 

[J.]

None of it makes sense, unless you are part of the outrage mob hive mind

 

[Krigloch the Furious]

Fuck, I need to watch Haywire again.
Those kicks and the knee look burtal!
