    Culture Gina Carano Cancelled by Lucasfilm, Goes Rebel

    Okay, but the Lego figure was being used as evidence that Carano was back in the video a page ago so this is still pretty significant. It's not that Lego used the character name, that'd be normal. It's that Lego felt the need to post a message specifying that this was only a Cara Dune figure...

    Culture Gina Carano Cancelled by Lucasfilm, Goes Rebel

    I've said before I thought that the major issues were factions fighting each other for control of the company, and using wokeness as a weapon in the fight. This is pretty much how I read the situation from months ago.
