^ BTW, Gina is a woman, so "sexism" is how woke cultists would call her firing... if she was a leftist... but since she's not, many woke employees from Disney not only didn't care, but they also threatened and harassed her on social media.
Wokism is a doctrine based on hatred.
Did you read the lawsuit? She sues them for wrongful termination.
They are not "forced" to employ anyone. This is not the point. The point is that there are rules to fire employees. They didn't respect the laws on how to fire her.
Also, they discriminated her since they used an argument to fire her and didn't use it on other employee. Another claim is that many employees and execs from Disney harassed her.

I agree. A 100%.
True. Alcoholism is Russia's biggest problem. Putin recently took measures to cheapen Vodka's cost (I guess it helps to keep the population obedient...)
Eastern women are very attractive, because they're both beautiful and have traditional values.
If you look at what happens (even in Belgium), people are less and less happy every year, while we are getting more and more "woke". It's not just a correlation, it's causation.
I agree that Russia is far from being perfect. I'm happy to live in France and not there. But that doesn't mean they can't formulate valid criticism on us.
France (and I believe the West) in the 90s was a paradise, but we've been going downhill since then. The Zeitgeist causes an obsession for race, gender and all these other nonsensical issues. It's destructive and divisive. We used to be more united. That's a weakness. They exploit it.
Disney is a dominant player that should've been dismantled by Antitrust laws a long time ago. Their brown-nosing of leftist issues (like wokeness) is mostly a way for them to survive and avoid dismantlement. It's not a "conspiracy", it's a cynical corporate strategy.

Hollywood is an oligopoly. There are lots of indicators and economic analyses that show that. An example from Berkley:

Not everything is a "conspiracy"... I know the modern mainstream media think so (BTW, they're an oligopoly as well...), it's just their new Pavlov reflex to say "conspiracy" all the time.
As the Big Lebowski would say: "yeah, well, you know, that's just like, your opinion, man"
The Oscar is not a trustworthy institution, it's the symbol of the Hollywood cartel.
And Barbie is the symbol of this IMHO
She looks better now, but I think she made a very bad choice when she decided to play for Barbie (a terrible movie, a symbol of division in our societies - she should've chosen more "convening" roles IMHO). The West needs convening movies, not divisive ones.
The "bloodbath" polemic is the tree that hides the forest.
What Trump proposed to protect the US automotive industry is way deeper than what narrow-minded NY Times writers think.

Trump's will to impose tariff on Chinese cars is a proof that the Right is trying to defend the Western industry.

The Left is the prime destroyer of the industry in the West, because of a) their strong regulations in the West and b) their push for free trade with countries that have zero regulations (like China).
Yes! The movie was so good: the soundtrack was deep and powerful, all the actors were great, the stage production was on point, etc. That's the type of movies we love.
I really hope they make a part 3 soon.
