    AT&T recently dropped the hammer on Warner in general and their DC Comics subdivision in particular, which just might have been the division with the largest number of activists in the entire AT&T portfolio. That may signal the tide is turning, but before it did, Gina Carano already stood up to the crazies. For this, she was accused of being on the wrong side of history.
    In this editorial, @AndreEinherjar will go though what Carano did, and why she is on the right side of history as well as the values of George Lucas’ original Star Wars.

    This 100% has me looking at her in a different light as well as the character that she plays on the Mandalorian. I can't wait to see her again on the show and I can't wait for the new season to begin.

Now... it is pretty much ALL you hear. These psychopaths are desperately afraid that Trump could get reelected this November, and so they are pulling out every single trick they can think of, no matter how deplorable, or underhanded, to prevent this from happening.
      Little do they know, they might only succeed in being the reason Trump gets reelected. Because psychopathic liberals make the ENTIRE DEMOCRATIC PARTY look terrible! A lot of neutral voters, right now, are leaning very much toward the "right" side of the political aisle. That has only happened because the "left" side has become so terrifying. Ironically, about thirty years ago, extremist RIGHT WINGERS made the same mistake, and the country turned very liberal overnight.
      I seriously hope Democrats are taking notes here. Because their extremist-members are singlehandedly sabotaging their own efforts to get a Democractic President back in the Oval Office!

      I would argue the movement would be more Leninist-Marxist than fascist if you want to color everything with a broad general brush of extremism like everyone loves to do these days... (Which ends all possibilities of real discussion and progress)
      There's no direct leader of the peaceful protests that keep getting escalated into riots due to policing being completely broken in the US. Since there is no direct leader, telling the movement what to do, I'd consider it a populist people's movement which is upset with the status quo of unequal rights between people of color and the poorest in the nation, vs the wealthiest who done give a fuck and take more for themselves and leave less and less for those at the bottom.
      The requests of the movement are that of social and social spending reforms.. so it's truly a social Democratic movement.. but it's okay, call them Nazis... And the more we refuse to listen to this social Democratic movement, the more extreme people in it will become.
      This type of movement gets out of hand in the US because we have a population that is terribly uneducated and don't understand Politics, and label things completely wrong and this leads to social unrest and NO progress.
      The more the people fight legitimate social progress in this country the more extreme those who are fighting for it will become (Leninist-Marxist). The more extreme they become, the more those defending the status quo will warp it and mutate it to benifits themselves and punish others that don't fall in line and assimilate taking away their freedoms (fascism). That mutation, is fascism.
      Here's a good free starting point. Pick up some books on Marist theory, fascism, social democracy, and capitalism: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_fascism

      @Robertino Tanos This is surprisingly correct. Good characters, who are fleshed out, regardless of gender, are more important to any story than the simple fact that they are "strong."
      But don't cover up the issue here. Because these two dudes stood up for Gina Carano, you immediately presumed, incorrectly, that they were SJWs. You thus ignored the entirety of the video we are commenting on, because you SHOULD HAVE KNOWN that Gina Carano is the woman that every SJW lib-tard HATES right now. No SJW would be standing up for Carano, under current circumstances. Because she refused to "bend the knee" to internet trolls. So calling these two "SJW"s exposes you as uninformed on the larger issue.

    • @yessum15
      @yessum15 4 года назад

      It's a clever point, but you are glossing over some key differences:
      1) Trans people claim to identify as a different gender but not a different biological sex. Dolezal was identifying as a different race but also claiming a biologically different ethnicity. This is called lying.
      2) Dolezal's deception occurred in the context of a number of other scams she was running. Including filling what appear to be false reports of hate crimes, engaging in plagiarism, and defrauding social services. This feeds into the narrative that she was not genuinely "trans-racial" but rather engaged in an elaborate deception to further her own interests.
      3) Finally, it is important to note that even among trans people the issue of a potentially siphoning funds away from services designed to support the needs of CIS women, is a much smaller threat (eg: maternity health services). In spite of this, this is still an area of active and unsettled debate in liberal communities. For transracial people, this is a much bigger problem and therefore is deserving of more scrutiny. Rachel Dolezal in particular has exploited resources reserved for the support of ethnic minority communities.
      4) In spite of all the above, the backlash against Rachel Dolezal has been relatively mild and mostly justified. Any official punishment she received has generally been as a result of actual crimes or violations of policy that she committed, rather than specifically in response to her claimed trans-racial identity.
      I do believe that in the future trans-racialism will be an accepted practice, as human race categories are mostly just made up concepts. However, this is likely not what Ms. Dolezal was doing.

      @RuinaLux 4 года назад

      AGS363 I mean, being on the “right side of history” just means that when people look back on the events of the time, you were on the progressive side that came out ahead. Up to this point, the major instances where this was clearly true in America were things like the Civil War, Vietnam (where history has proven we were wrong to get involved,) Suffrage, Civil Rights, etc. There were people in opposition to all of those things and those people were, objectively, on the wrong side of history.
      Also, that quote is only 12 years old and doesn’t really hold much water. In essence, it would mean that all men will eventually be corrupted, which at best might apply to the rich and powerful but largely, people are decent by nature. Generally, power corrupting only happens because the people in question were always kinda shit at their core and the power they gained allowed them more freedom to express that.

    • @sigmacademy

      @@RuinaLux Well, how do you define "decent"? Some historical examples: The Crusades was made up by "decent" folk? Some of the churches were full of decent folk, while children were being exploited by some priests? The armed forces are full of decent folk, yet there are always cases of sexual abuse or assault on female foreign nationals? Some royals did pretty disgusting things in the name of their country and its people (and some of the people didn't even know at that time what was being done in their name, while others gladly participated in exchange for a cut of the riches). I know these are only cases where singular people are at fault or mostly dealt with already, but the point I am making is how many decent folk have not so decent folk about them and how do you separate the "decent" folk from the "not so decent" folk?
      An utopia is a mythical concept that has ruined every society that has destroyed the future and prosperity of its citizens in a desire to chase it. To give everyone the "total freedom" they want, is to give some the freedom to destroy the others, regardless of whether justification exists or not - because they will feel it's a moral imperative to destroy evil in any form (by their own interpretation, of course). It's been like that throughout history, both in mob rule (through social purges) and through "democratic governance" (and "legitimate targets"), and we have the body counts of both the guilty and the innocent regardless of real or perceived crime. Nothing has significantly changed to such a degree that it can't ever happen again, and if we are to move toward that mythical goalpost again, it will just end up another dark chapter in history all over again, in a different century and with a larger body count this time around. We will have learned nothing from history, even when anyone and everyone can study history now and can see this coming from a mile away. :/

The survivors and perpetrators are still alive for the most part and it is harder to just dismiss as "over the top" hyperbole.

    Wow. I honestly didn't know this about Gina. Thanks for posting this video. The fact that she doesn't bend the knee and actually speaks up, speaks volumes about her character. I'm grateful for her efforts.

    I’m gay and I’m in Love with this woman! Not because she’s on the right side of history, but because she’s on the right side of truth. She’s intelligent, she’s beautiful, and she knows how to stand up for herself. This woman is an inspiration!

    ok help me out here. So what are people mad at her about? It seems like she was posting in favor of a worthy cause. What's there to get mad about?

    I found a Newsweek article that talks about this. I’m still confused as to what caused the issue. She posted a picture of Nazis saluting but with the one person not saluting and said something about a love story. What is wrong with this? Who was mad at this?

    Gina Carano is an incredible person, an amazing fighter, a pretty decent actress and all around badass. She has gained my respects. These SJWs are pathetic because Carano is standing against humantrafficking. How is she racist or any kind of -ist they say she is? These people are what's wrong with the world today. I believe in equal rights for everyone, regardless of race, gender or orientation, not one is above the other. That's what I believe in. I'm sure Gina believes the same thing. These SJWs will be remembered for being pathetic and causing trouble for any good cause, story or entertainment that normal people wish to believe in. Gina, my heart goes out to ya. Fight the good fight and best of luck in the Mandolorian season 2.

      Gal Gadot is moderatly talented and hardly professional actress - yet she had accomplished something in her life and one can't deny that they care and put honest effort into what they are doing. They have idea for their lives and trying to accomplish something meaninfgul. Most can agree, both are also attractive. Both are apparently hated for two factors: NOT having victim mentality and actually having some measure of success.

    I love this woman. She's pure class. Henry Cavill almost gave her a wedding ring.

    Good points Andre. It does cast GC's character in a different light. Knowing Gina's effort level to achieve her fighting ability makes it much easier to think that her character in "The Mandalorian" took a similar path, and hence is NOT a Mary Sue.

    I think in the largest sense, the best way to approach any topic that is divisive: disregard the extremes on both sides. Just tune them out, ignore them, and disavow them. Dont give them *any* power or recognition. The tiny percentage of 'voices' lost will not lessen the dialogue or remove anything constructive. What it *will* do is clear the air of poison and artificial discord. That allows the sane to grapple with the difficult issues with compassion, humility, and with the mutual goal of actually improving things for everyone.

    Gina Carrano and Terry Crews, the Queen and King of standing up to BS activists. Love 'em both!

    The definition of a hero is someone who does something when others don't when they're faced with the same injustice.

    The ridicule thing is those who think they are different from others that lived 100, 500, 20000 years ago and commit to the same identical behaviors.
