This Is The Way: Fired ‘Mandalorian’ Star Sues Disney, Lucasfilm After Elon Musk Offer

from ZeroHedge:

In February of 2021, two stars of Disney’s The Mandalorian made Nazi and Holocaust analogies in political statements.

Lucasfilm, owned by Disney, fired one of them. And now she’s suing.

In the first instance, Mandalorian star Pedro Pascal made a now-deleted Instagram post likening Trump supporters losing the 2020 election to the Confederacy and Nazi Germany losing in 1865 and 1945. In 2018, Pascal compared Jews in a Nazi concentration camp to ‘children in cages‘ (using a 2010 photo of Palestinian children waiting to be fed at a soup kitchen).
