Obama Judge Refuses to Dismiss Gina Carano's Political/Sex Discrimination Suit Against Disney

The judge had seemed skeptical of Disneys' claim that, as a company engaged in "speech products," it had an absolute right to discriminate based on sex and based on political speech. (Which, again, is illegal in California -- California law prohibits firing people based on political activity, a law they passed to protect Communists.)

But now she rules that their motion to dismiss is meritless.

A Los Angeles federal judge has denied Disney's motion to dismiss the lawsuit which was filed by Carano after she was ousted from the Disney+ "Star Wars"-linked streaming series "The Mandalorian" three years ago over social media posts comparing the political climate in the US to the Holocaust.

US District Judge Sherilyn Peace Garnett, who was appointed to the bench by President Biden, rejected Disney's claim Wednesday that it had a "right to dissociate its own artistic message from Carano's outspoken 'political beliefs.'"

Carano's "beliefs" were "outspoken"? She said like five political things on twitter. She's one of the least-outspoken celebrities on Twitter.

It's just that one of the thing she said -- that she would not put pronouns in her bio, and when vilely attacked for weeks by trans extremists and pressured to put pronouns in her bio, she said her pronouns were "Beep/Boop/Bop" -- is absolutely forbidden to be said by the crazed Transgender Cult which now controls our politics.

"I am moved to tears," Carano wrote on her X account on Wednesday in response to the ruling.

"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 fell under heavy criticism after she posted that "Jews were beaten in the streets, not by Nazi soldiers but by their neighbors.... even by children."

The actor continued to say, "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?"

But that was just the pretext for her firing (and that pretext makes no sense -- what did she say that was wrong or offensive?)

The real reason was that Trans and Gay extremists at Disney had been screaming that she must be fired over the pronoun "controversy." Disney pretended that her statement about the Nazis was "denigrating" someone's "religion and heritage" -- HOW? -- because they didn't want to admit they were simply pushing the Not-So-Secret Trans Agenda of their vicious employees and the mentally-ill audience they've cultivated.

I saw Lawyer to the Stars (he briefly represented me) Ron Coleman talking about this on Valliant Renegade's channel. Valliant Renegade pointed out that Carano was not looking to settle, but to go through the whole discovery process and get Disney's emails demanding they fire her for her normie, completely-sane view of "pronouns." Carano had said that she's looking to "go all the way" with this. In other words, she's not looking for a settlement. She wants all the emails.

Ron Coleman countered by saying every man, or woman, has his price. Disney will just offer so much money to Carano to make her go away that she will have to settle.

But will she? This suit is being funded by Elon Musk. Elon Musk isn't funding this suit just to help Carano -- he's fighting the culture war against Disney.

Recall that Peter Thiel funded Terry "Hulk Hogan" Bollea's lawsuit against Gawker Media for its nasty revenge porn. Thiel wasn't just interested in helping Bollea -- he wanted vengeance. (Gawker had revealed sexual details about him years before.)

And that suit went "all the way," and bankrupted Gawker.

I'm not saying that Elon Musk would tell Gina Carano she must continue pressing the lawsuit and reject all offers of settlement. I'm saying that Thiel might have had a deal with Hulk Hogan that he himself would pay Hulk Hogan the settlement money that Gawker might offer, in exchange for not agreeing to settle with them.

Elon Musk might have a deal like that with Gina Carano. Maybe he's agreed to pay her whatever Disney offers -- so long as she doesn't accepted Disney's offer.

I hope so.

Those emails will be compelling and rich.

Or, if Disney destroys them: Even better.

Correction: I wrongly said the Post called her "outspoken." That was a quote from Disney, not the post's own words. Thanks to Eric Blade for that correction. The quotes-within-quotes got me confuzzelated.
