She's some unknown actress who worked for Disney until she started spewing republican anti-Jewish hatred on Twitter.

The Elon Musketeer has offered to pay all lawyer bill for anyone getting fired for posting "fREE sPeECh" on X, and he publicly stated that he was honoured to pay the bills for this desperate woman.

It wasn't Republican anti-Jewish hatred. She was comparing being a Republican to being a Jew in Nazi Germany.

Disney fired her after a long, long string of tweets espousing views they didn't like. Gina is anti-mask, she expressed great disappointment at Biden winning election & urged that voter fraud laws/measures be put in place, she made fun of adding pronouns to Twitter profiles.

Disney warned her multiple times to tone things down, and after the Republican-Jew comparison, Disney fired her.

One could argue that comparing being MAGA to being a jew in the holocaust is anti-jew. But either way, her employer didn't like her public shitposting and she lost her job, that's how it works.

One could argue almost anything.

The "all birds are actually government drones" thing comes to mind...

But hasn’t Elon fired his own employees for tweets he didn’t like? Generally anything critical of him?

Hmm Disney has deep pockets too... Would be a shame for all those people to sue Twitter...
