Reinstate Gina Carano on The Mandalorian

[epronovost]

They own Family Guy.

And it's a family friendly show. It barely gets a PG-13 rating at most. Plus, this show isn't produced under the Disney brand either.

They own movie rights to Deadpool.

Not produced by the Disney brand either. Both it and Family Guy are produced under the 20th Century Fox brand. Note that those shows were created well before Disney corporation acquired 20th century fox.

They don't produce porn, but Pirates gets a bit violent and raunchy at times.

Pirates of the Caribbean are family movies with a rating of Pg-13 at the very most. They are the most violent and raunchy movies under the Disney brand and frankly quite tepid and compared to movies of the action genre. It's definitely not an adult/young adult movie.

Just admit it. You were making an overblown critique out of a certain disgust for Disney as corporation. They can be a huge quasi monopolistic mega corporation with shady business practices and still produce family friendly entertainment, specifically under the Disney brand.

And it's a family friendly show.

How are we defining "family friendly"?
There are frequently violent, brutal fights on it, there is language in it, sexual themes are prevalent, drug use is there, cannabis use is promoted, it challenges and mocks religion, one of the family members is even frequently bullied by her own family.

Not produced by the Disney brand either.

Yeah, everything Marvel movie is Disney.

It's violent enough I wouldn't want young children watching it if I had any. Violence is a quick deal breaker on "family friendly." And Pirates features a lot of it. I also wouldn't want young children learning from Jack Sparrow.

Just admit it. You were making an overblown critique out of a certain disgust for Disney as corporation. They can be a huge quasi monopolistic mega corporation with shady business practices and still produce family friendly entertainment, specifically under the Disney brand.

No, I just don't give them a free pass. The mob doesn't get to claim they are a legit business because they have legit business fronts, no more than Disney gets to pick and choose it's image based on how they'd rather we think of them.

What could be more family oriented than a family
over-coming dysfunction to stay together, eh.

That's where the Simpsons really shine. And they do it because they are a family, because they take their wedding vows seriously, and overall they seem quite normal.
Family Guy not so much with Griffins needing Meg to abuse to keep them glued together. Without her taking it they did come unglued.

It's better than what Deadpool would do to him.

Deadpool did us the great service of traveling back in
time to shoot Ryan Reynolds, thereby preventing the
making of The Green Lantern.

The left has gone too far

Sign the Petition

Would you be supporting her if she wasn't loudly anti-trans?

Edit: I mean, if someone was upset about actors being fired unfairly, they'd be all about, say, petitioning to get Steven Yuen back on the Walking Dead... if they could find time among all the petitions they'd been doing since Firefly was cancelled.

In Hollywood, people get fired for unfair reasons all the time, so when someone only makes noise about fairness when the bigots are fired, I generally assume that fairness isn't really their point.

Even fellow Canuckistanians find the intolerance shown

They do believe you have to be intolerant towards it, and show whacky pictures that completely rewrite history to pretend they could have censored the Nazis out of existence and canceled their power before they had any. Because, apparently, the people at the frickin' FCC really do follow people around blasting airhorns and holding up black bars to censor real life. Just be intolerant, amd I guess their feelings will be hurt enough to make them see the light and come to Jesus amd ask him to forgive their sins.

Whuh?

 

[Shadow Wolf]

Whuh?

It's the best sense I can make of that lunacy. They believe in something that goes in an open society you have to be intolerant of intolerance. This is frequently accompanied by some picture breaking it down like a comic of the Nazis, with the implications the Nazis could have been intolerated, censored, and canceled from having power and doing what they did. That ignores what did happen and what post-WWI Germany was like. It's also brings to question how this would be accomplished.
From their I just go to Family Guy with the FCC censoring real life, because I have no other idea of what they expect could have been done to prevent it, but they are so confident it could be done there has to be some machination behind it.
And because this group loves their sin, and guilt, and shame as much as hardcore Evangelical Protestants, and because PC culture does strongly remind me of my own former cult that I feel compelled add that in every chance I get.

Mmmffff...OK....

 

[Shadow Wolf]

Mmmffff...OK....

Here's the picture thingy that's often used:

So, definitely ignoring the circumstances in post WW1 Germany and the factors that did lead to the Nazis and Hitler ascending to supreme power.

There is an option other than tolerating
everything & tolerating nothing.

Not all heroes wear capes

Not all heroes wear capes

Just Spawn and Batman. The other cape wearers are more super nothings that super heroes.
And then there is the hero, no cape but he has two katanas and a tongue that makes the swords look like putty.

It is rather telling that the so called “anti SJWs” kick up a fuss whenever a bigot is fired but never for anyone else.
I also find it ironic that the American Right is all of a sudden claiming to be staunchly pro free speech and against “cancel culture” when they have been cancelling people for generations at this point.
Luckily their grift is being seen for what it is. For the most part anyway

 

[Secret Chief]

claiming to be staunchly pro free speech and against “cancel culture”

There's a new rightwing TV channel set to launch in the UK which is avowedly pro free speech (ie what the normal common man thinks but isn't allowed to say) AND it won't be having any woke guests on. Pre-cancelled.

Right.

Like poor Steve from Blue's Clues: he lost his job because he started to go bald. Where was the petition for him? Nowhere, because he wasn't a jerk to anyone.

Indeed. Anyone who's actually against "cancel culture" would be campaigning for Colin Kaepernick to get another NFL spot.

If it’s avidly pro free speech, then isn’t disallowing certain people right off the bat antithetical to being “pro free speech?”

Interestingly doesn’t the right wing (pretty much everywhere) say that if you don’t like it make/build your own? And then all their ventures and safe spaces fail hard?
