Gina Carano wonders why there's no backlash to Susan Sarandon's Holocaust post that is nearly identical to the one she shared that got her fired from Disney

Avowed leftist Susan Sarandon posted a message on social media that compared the current political climate to Nazi Germany. Conservative-leaning Gina Carano shared an image similar to the one Sarandon posted. However, only Carano suffered so much backlash that she lost a major Hollywood.

In February 2021, Carano posted a message on her Instagram with a photo of people living in terror during the Lviv pogroms of 1941.

The post read: “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,” the post said. “How is that any different from hating someone for their political views?”

The post warning about dehumanizing other human beings because of their political leanings drew outrage.

The next day, Lucasfilm issued a statement that said, “Gina Carano is not currently employed by Lucasfilm and there are no plans for her to be in the future. Nevertheless, her social media posts denigrating people based on their cultural and religious identities are abhorrent and unacceptable.”

The same day, the influential United Talent Agency (UTA) dropped Carano as a client.

At the time, Carano was a star on the massively popular Disney series "The Mandalorian." Being fired from the Disney+ "Star Wars" TV series was a major blow for the MMA fighter turned actress.

Carano believed the message "would bring people together."

"But now after hearing so much, I actually have grown through the experience of [realizing] it’s not fair to the Jewish community to just throw this out here so much," Carano said. "When you say the word ‘Nazi’ and when you call someone a ‘Nazi,’ you need to have a little bit more respect on it. So, I understand that. But it was in no way my intention."

This week, Susan Sarandon posted a similar post on social media that read:

It didn’t start with gas chambers. It started with one party controlling the media. One party controlling the message. One party deciding what is truth. One party censoring speech and silencing opposition. One party dividing citizens into ‘us’ and ‘them’ and calling on their supporters to harass ‘them.’ It started when good people turned a blind eye and let it happen.

Sarandon's tweet racked up nearly 200,000 likes.

Carano reacted to Sarandon's post with a snarky GIF questioning the apparent double standard.

Sarandon currently stars in the TV series "Monarch" that airs on Fox and Hulu – which Disney both owns. Since posting the Holocaust meme on Monday, Sarandon has yet to face any real backlash or cancel culture pressure.

Twitter mob attacks Rob Schneider, misses his point about mob insanity — but Schneider gets last laugh

"Saturday Night Live" alum Rob Schneider dominated the trending topics on Twitter this week after sharing an emotional story on "The Glenn Beck Podcast" to illustrate how our country is taking a "step back into that darkness" and why he is "willing to lose it all" to fight for his "children and the country they're going to live in."

Schneider could have stayed a Hollywood liberal, with all the privileges that entails, or at least stayed silent. But instead, he chose to speak out and push back against the "stranglehold" of the Democratic Party after seeing "that it was no longer protecting the rights of the individual."

"Are you willing to lose it all for what you believe? Glenn asked Schneider.

"Absolutely," Schneider answered. "Because if we don't have it, then we have nothing. ... I don't care about my career any more. I care about my children and the country that they're going to live in," he added.

"My hope is this. My hope is a beautiful story from a chaplain in England," Schneider explained.

"When the American flyers came over in the early days of World War II ... their friends were getting blown out of the sky. They would go over in the bombers and half would come back or two-thirds would come back ... and there was one particularly awful week or two weeks where there was a very high percentage of these pilots getting blown out of the sky."

"They went to the Air Force Chapel, and a pilot said 'Our friends are dying. Why should we do this?' [...] The chaplain ... said, 'Humanity has come out of the dark ages. We've come out of where people get burned at the stake, people believe and people go along with this. There's a darkness that we have come out of into more of an enlightened period, a freer period. [...] This is a step back into that darkness. It is the darkest parts of humanity, and we need to stand up for that now. And that requires this.' So they all flew."

Schnieder went on to add, "I do feel a sacrifice that's required, and we gotta do it because we were lucky, man, we grew up in a boom time in America."

\u201cOn the Glenn Beck Podcast, @RobSchneider tells me why he's "ABSOLUTELY" willing to lose it all for what he believes: "I DON'T CARE about my career anymore. I care about my children and the country they're going to live in."\u201d
— Glenn Beck (@Glenn Beck) 1661818200

A video clip posted on Twitter has been viewed nearly 2 million times as of this writing. Some people, such as the Daily Wire's Gina Carano, actually watched the just-over-two-minute video and thus understood what Schneider was saying. "I’ll fly with ya,” tweeted the former "Mandalorian” actress.

\u201c\ud83e\udd0d I\u2019ll fly with ya. @RobSchneider\u201d
— Gina Carano \ud83d\udd6f (@Gina Carano \ud83d\udd6f) 1661876347

Predictably, the ignorant liberal mob did what ignorant liberal mobs do, grabbing their virtual torches and pitchforks and joining the echo chamber of unhinged, unoriginal mockery. Some "roasted" Schneider's career, others got hung up on whether or not he's a Trump supporter (because absolutely everything is still about former President Donald Trump and apparently will be until the end of time), and a few even decided to drag Adam Sandler into the fracas for no other reason than the two comedians are friends and "frequently work together."

Schneider responded on Wednesday by tweeting a photo of the crowd at his stand-up comedy show, complete with the caption: "I prioritize supporting a country that provides the same Freedoms for my children that made my career possible. This legacy to me is more important to me than the next chapter of my career. Love, Rob."

\u201cI prioritize supporting a country that provides the same Freedoms for my children that made my career possible. This legacy to me is more important to me than the next chapter of my career.\nLove,\nRob\u201d

Shaq takes a hard stance against vaccine mandates

Shaquille O'Neal seems to have changed his mind on mandates, and wasted no time making his opinion known during an episode of "The Big Podcast with Shaq." The former NBA player said he encouraged people to "be safe and take care of your family" but that "you shouldn't be forced to take something that you do not want."

When co-host Nischelle Turner pushed back and suggested mandates were not really being forced, Shaq doubled down.

Shaq was relentless, saying, "It is forced. Because if the man don't take it, the man gonna get fired."

Yes, that is what mandate means. One might argue "mandate" and "force" occupy similar spaces in the etymological circle, but vocabulary is hard for some people.

Shaq's recent statement runs counter to what he's said in the past about Kyrie Irving's refusal to get vaccinated against COVID-19. But if institutions are allowed to change and adapt, why not individuals?

Former Democratic senator smears Gina Carano as a 'Nazi.' Carano hits back.

Gina Carano on Monday blasted a former Democratic senator from North Dakota for "false, disturbing & disgusting" language after the senator made possibly slanderous comments about her on national television.

Former Sen. Heidi Heitkamp (D-N.D.), who was once reputed to be a moderate Democrat, recently appeared as a guest on "Real Time with Bill Maher" and said that Carano, who played Cara Dune on the popular Star Wars show "The Mandalorian," was canceled by Disney and social media mobs because she was "involved in white supremacy."

"She's [Carano] a Nazi," Heitkamp said.

"She's not a Nazi," Maher, laughing, replied.

"She's involved in white supremacy," Heitkamp insisted.

— Yeticast (@Yeticast)1617044120.0

Reason editor-in-chief Nick Gillespie, who was also a guest on the show, seemed confused at Heitkamp's accusation. "She called other people Nazis, so she's the Nazi," he said.

To which Heitkamp responded: "She does hang with white supremacists."

"She does? Hangs with white supremacists?" Maher asked, incredulously.

"Yeah," Heitkamp said before quickly realizing she made a slanderous accusation without evidence on national television.

Back-pedaling, she jokingly acknowledged, "I suppose I'm now subject to defamation."

"I think we have to be really careful. There's two things the Republicans think they're going to get Biden on: cancel culture and this whole Dr. Seuss stuff that's going on, where they're reading 'Green Eggs and Ham,' proving that some of these senators can actually read, and immigration," Heitkamp went on to say. "And so, we can't ignore the fact that we got Donald Trump was in part because of political correctness."

Carano certainly did not ignore Heitkamp's comments.

"Here we have more of the dehumanizing phase of cancel culture — Repeat lies over and over until the population takes them as 'truth'," she tweeted in response. "False, disturbing & disgusting language coming from a former US Senator. @HeidiHeitkamp You knew as soon as you said it you were liable."

Carano was fired by Lucasfilm after a social media campaign demanded she lose her job because of controversial posts she made on social media. In an Instagram post, Carano drew a comparison between a person hating someone else for their political views and the Nazi Party stirring up hatred and violence against Jews before beginning the Holocaust.

"Jews were beaten in the streets, not by Nazi soldiers but by their neighbors...even by children," Carano wrote.

"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?"

In a statement announcing Carano had been fired, Lucasfilm said that "her social media posts denigrating people based on their cultural and religious identities are abhorrent and unacceptable."

'This isn't an empty gesture': Steven Crowder offers CANCELED actress a job

Steven Crowder offered actress Gina Carano a job after she was cancelled by LucasFilm for posting a tweet deemed "unacceptable" by cancel culture.

"This isn't an empty gesture," Crowder clarified, adding that if Carano needed a job, he would hire her.

Crowder believes that though there are very few things that can be accurately compared to the Holocaust, that Carano's comparison was "accurate."

TheBlaze reported that Carano, who played Cara Dune on Disney+'s popular Star Wars series was fired for posting an "abhorrent and unacceptable" tweet about Jewish oppression at the hands of the Nazis and comparing it to censorship of conservative points of view and cancel culture." Her post triggered a social media campaign by the left on Tuesday to have her fired by Lucasfilm.

So, what did Carano say that was so terrible? Watch the clip.

Democratic governor tells people to 'stay home except for essential activities,' then is spotted at a wine bar without a mask

Democratic politicians have been caught openly disobeying their own COVID-19 lockdown orders for months: The latest hypocritical offender is the governor of Rhode Island.

Rhode Island Gov. Gina Raimondo, a Democrat, was reportedly photographed at a wine bar. The photo shows Raimondo, who is not wearing a face mask, enjoying a glass of wine at Barnaby's Public House in Providence. The photo was taken during a "wine and paint" event last Friday, according to Erica Oliveras, who took the photo.

However, only days earlier, Raimondo instructed her constituents to "stay home except for essential activities."

"It's week two of our pause. I know it's been hard, but I want to thank every Rhode Islander who's following our guidance," Raimondo tweeted on Dec. 7. "Please, stay home except for essential activities & wear a mask anytime you're with people you don't live with. Together, we can turn our case numbers around."

— Gina Raimondo (@Gina Raimondo)1607367698.0

Oliveras told WLNE-TV that Raimondo "only took her mask off whenever she was drinking her wine," and the governor put her face covering on "when waiters approached her."

Rhode Island's latest COVID-19 guidance states that "all members of the party wear masks when not eating or drinking and follow other public health protocols" while dining at restaurants.

A spokesperson for the governor's office told WLNE, "The governor had dinner at a local restaurant with her husband, and had her mask on anytime she was not eating/drinking."

Raimondo signed an executive order on Nov. 19 that limited "all indoor public and private social gatherings, including holiday gatherings, parties and celebrations" to a single household. Houses of worship are limited to 25% capacity and restaurants may only operate at 33% capacity. Indoor gyms, fitness centers, movie theaters, bowling centers, and arcades are prohibited from opening during the "pause." The order is in effect until Dec. 20.

Raimondo announced this week that she is in self-quarantining after Dr. Nicole Alexander-Scott, the director of the Rhode Island Department of Health, tested positive for COVID-19.

Thank you to everyone who has reached out and offered well-wishes. I tested negative again today. I am fortunate to… https://t.co/kHIVyrTPi3

This is just the latest example of Democratic politicians declaring: "Coronavirus rules for thee but not for me."

Denver Mayor Michael Hancock, a Democrat, urged his constituents to "avoid travel" for Thanksgiving, then approximately 30 minutes later, he was on a plane traveling to Mississippi to visit his daughter.

Democratic San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo instructed people to "cancel" Thanksgiving gatherings and then celebrated the holiday with family and friends.

After implementing some of the strictest COVID-19 rules in the country, California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) was caught at a Michelin-starred restaurant with a group of maskless people for a birthday party.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was caught on camera at a hair salon in San Francisco, despite the coronavirus pandemic lockdowns shuttering establishments.

In April, Democratic Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot flouted her own COVID-19 restrictions and received a haircut. Lightfoot was so bold that she took a photo with her hairstylist without a face mask and while not practicing social distancing. Lightfoot also defied her own commands by joining hundreds in the streets of Chicago to celebrate the 2020 election results and improperly wearing a face mask on her chin.

Washington, D.C., Mayor Muriel Bowser traveled to Delaware to commemorate Joe Biden's election victory in November. According to Bowser's own order, Delaware is considered a "high risk" state, which requires a 14-day quarantine. The Democratic mayor declared the political trip to be "essential travel."

Steve Adler, the mayor of Austin, Texas, insisted that residents "stay home" to slow the spread of coronavirus, while he was on vacation in Mexico with family members and others.
