      I think she got burned for saying QAnon stuff on Twitter antisemetic/Holocaust denialy stuff and doubling down when Disney told her that she couldn't do that.

        She got toasted for comparing herself and conservatives to Jews during the Holocaust.

        She pissed off the one group of people you absolutely do not want to piss off in Hollywood.

        You can get away with a lot of stuff in Hollywood but anti-Semitism ain't one of those things

            "The Jews" as an insidious force don't control Hollywood.

            However, Hollywood as an institution has a lot of Jewish men in the upper strata and will let other things slide but not anti-Semitism stuff. It's no surprise that the Holocaust is a sore spot for that cultural and religious group.

            One's an actual observation, the other is a conspiracy. Are there lots of powerful Jewish men in Hollywood? Absolutely. Do "The Jews" control Hollywood? No, it's a social engineering machine designed to uphold the capitalist economic system.

            Same way I wouldn't go to make a movie in China and say that I feel like I survived the Nanjing Massacre.

              Iirc there were some anti-Jewish labor laws at the turn of the 20th century that made movie production attractive to Jewish workers
