I am seeing lots of additional crap being thrown around about Gina Carano.

1. Yes. Her views and behaviors are abhorrant.

2. Yes. She absolutely shouldn't be part of Star Wars.

However...
...this is where the misogynistic bullshit kicks in...

1. It wasn't because her character was "terrible". It was super awesome seeing an unapologetically tough, butch, heavy built female in a Star
Wars as a hero.

2. It wasn't because "she isn't hot enough".
3. It wasn't because "nobody likes all the new female characters in SW"
Star Wars is, and always has been, a struggle of freedom vs. facism, of love against hate, of truth and hope against cruelty and lies.

Gina herself behaves like an Imperial.
