Gina Carano

 

Instagram Post by Gina Carano

There's been a lot of flak in the blogosphere because Gina lost her job with Disney, supposedly because of this post or possibly some others. I am ambivalent about Disney. They made some wonderful films and the dream world they created filled the imaginations of a zillion people. I totally believed in that dreamworld until I actually went and visited Disneyland and discovered it was nothing more than the same kind of carnival you find at the state fair. To be fair, it was higher quality, but it wasn't a dreamworld. 

On the other hand they have become a giant soulless corporation and all that entails, including getting special treatment from the US Congress on copyright laws. Anyway, Gina should have known better than to open her mouth if she wanted to keep working for the giant evil overlord Disney has become. Maybe she didn't and that's why she said something. or maybe she had just had enough. In that case, good for you, Gina.

But that's not why I am posting this. I'm posting this because I had never heard this business about how the Nazi's got the common people to hate the Jews long before they started rounding them up. I don't know if it's true, but it makes a lot of sense, and it does sound a whole lot like the noise now coming from the nutcases on the left.

People are just naturally hateful creatures, and why shouldn't we be? The world is forever trying to screw us over. Every since we learned to communicate, people have trying to convince other people to do their dirty work for them.

Because you can't easily search for text that only exists as an image, I have included it here:

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. How is that any different from hating someone for their political views?”
