"Immediately upon uncovering controversial statements made by the Mad Titan, Disney fired genocidal maniac Thanos, pulling the intergalactic aggressor from all future films in the Marvel Cinematic Universe."

Could someone translate this from nerd to normal speak?

It's a spoof/parody on Disney firing one of their producers because of things he posted on Twitter over a decade ago. God forbid people grow older and learn from doing goofy things in younger years.

If you live by the sword.....you know the rest.

No. Things a person says in their younger years should not mean that they must spend a lifetime looking over their shoulder in fear. This is the path to an Orwellian society.

Disney was right to fire Roseanne and Disney was right to fire Gunn. His words were 6-7 years ago, he was In his 40s and it went on for a long time. In a perfect world people would not lose there livelihoods over words. However, Gunn was a leading SJW commentator on getting rid of Roseanne and he was active in the effort to end Laura�s Ingraham�s career. So one might say he was hoisted upon his own petard.

I agree. The pitchfork mobs are getting really old. However, the rules need to apply to the left and right equally, and the left made these rules years ago.

Next up: Michael Ian Black

Should be, but is he working these days? Hard to fire someone like that.
