Disney tried to end actress Gina Carano's lawsuit against the company after it fired her from The Mandalorian and tried to make her persona non-grata. But last week Disney failed.
A judge allowed Carano’s discrimination case against Disney to move forward on July 24. Disney fired Carano three years ago after she notably made fun of personal pronouns and alluded to the fact that dehumanizing people can lead to horrifying ends like Nazi Germany.
Carano celebrated Disney’s failure to get her case dismissed on X, thanking X owner Elon Musk for supporting her lawsuit. “I am moved to tears. After a brutal 3 1/2 years, I am being given the opportunity to move forward in the court of law before the judge and my peers to clear my name. I am so grateful for this opportunity,” Carano wrote.
She went on to make clear that she wasn’t just fighting for herself. “What happened to me was unacceptable, absurd and abusive, among other things. It should not have happened to me, and it should not happen to anyone else moving forward. Let it stop here.”
Musk said of the decision: “The discovery on this case will be devastating for the woke mind virus that controls Disney.”
The former Mandalorian actress came under fire when she added another user’s post to her Instagram story. The post noted that hatred escalates to violence and used the example of the spread of German anti-Semitism before World War II to speak out against the demonization of conservatives in the present.
The left and the media encourage an insane double standard on Nazi comparisons, allowing them only for leftist actors, politicians and media. Mandalorian star, Pedro Pascal, himself compared Trump supporters to Nazis on social media.
Carano also responded to the inane trend of putting pronouns in social media bios by putting “boop/bop/beep” (R2-D2’s pronouns) in hers.

Disney subsidiary Lucasfilm unceremoniously fired Carano in February 2021. The company later put out a statement making it abundantly clear that her social media posts were at least part of the reason why Lucasfilm let her go. "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.”
However, it seems Lucasfilm may have made a misstep. California employment law does not allow employees to be fired for their political beliefs. Employers are barred from, “Forbidding or preventing employees from engaging or participating in politics or from becoming candidates for public office,” and “Controlling or directing, or tending to control or direct the political activities or affiliations of employees.”
California employers are also prohibited from threatening to remove employment for political reasons: “No employer shall coerce or influence or attempt to coerce or influence his employees through or using threat of discharge or loss of employment to adopt or follow or refrain from adopting or following any particular course or line of political action or political activity.”
