She exercised her freedom, and then Disney exercised its freedom. I wouldn't have done what Disney did, but I'm not them. Does she want to work for an employer like that in the first place? I wondered the same thing about Kaepernick and the NFL. Like
@Xenom0rph mentioned, she's going to make her own projects now with Daily Wire*, good for her. As she said, they can't cancel you if you don't let them.
Nevertheless I think it has a lot to do with expecting a pu$$y pass. As for white knights, I see a need for conformity and virtue signaling on both sides of the issue, instead of a willingness to think critically and see both sides.
She still has her 1st amendment rights, and she can still sue Disney if she thinks she was wrongfully terminated, but I'm sure Disney has that covered in its contracts. On the other hand, companies like Disney are pretty inconsistent with the way this stuff is handled. But that's their choice, and nobody forces anybody to watch the Mandalorian.
(*Going down this rabbit hole I learned that Ben Shapiro admitted on Twitter that he can't get his wife's pu$$y wet. Lol.)
