Actress and liberal activist Susan Sarandon may have accidentally made the case to bring Gina Carano back from the depths of cancel culture purgatory with a tweet on Monday night.
The tweet itself is talking about how the holocaust came to be, and the slow build-up that conditioned people to allow such atrocities in their own backyard.

“It didn’t start with gas chambers. It started with one party controlling the media. One party controlling the message. One party deciding what is truth. One party censoring speech and silencing opposition. One party dividing citizens into ‘us’ and ‘them’ and calling on their supporters to harass them. It started when good people turned a blind eye and let it happen,” the photo reads.
The photo was posted without any commentary from Sarandon, so it is not clear what exactly she means by this or who it is specifically aimed at. However, people began noticing it was awfully similar to the message that got Carano canned from Disney.
Didn’t Gina Carano get banned and fired for saying something similar to this?
Do I understand that Susan Sarandon is taking a stand alongside Gina…or does she instead mean the opposite and benefits from liberal privilege to say such a thing without consequences? pic.twitter.com/sqtpBvQ6fY

Naturally, this led to people wondering if Sarandon would receive the same treatment as Carano, or if she is indeed protected by “liberal privilege”:
Hey, @Disney: you cancelled Gina Carano for saying these exact words.
Will you be removing any Susan Sarandon roles or content from your platforms?
If not, why not? https://t.co/MbFEr4GVkN

Accurately describes the American left.

The amazingly weird and sad part is @SusanSarandon has no idea which party she is describing.

THIS is EXACTLY what Gina Carano was cancelled over.

This is exactly what Gina Carano warned us about.

So you’re no longer a Democrat then??

I seem to recall Gina Carano being cancelled by Disney for saying something similar. I’m sure Hollywood will hold Susan to the same standard.
