Is there a name for giving people a platform by attempting to cancel them?
Just how many people did firing her prevent her from reaching? I for one follow everything star wars but would never have seen her tweets if not for this drama.

Disney doesn't want to 'cancel' her, they just don't want to be associated with her.
They don't care whom she reaches as long as people don't think they endorse her views.
She cancelled herself by playing alt-right culture warrior games. In the real adult world, you have to do what your boss and contract say or else you get fired.
If only the goal was to kill misinformation. No, I mean, the goal was to protect Disney's reputation. "Cancelation" is capitalism.
Martyrdom
Nutjob nutjobs with nutjob.
Don't think the house of mouse fucked up when they ended her contract. But sure let her spend muskrats money.
Disney obviously did not run their message announcing Carano's dismissal through HR, and it will cost them. Carano probably has a good case for defamation because of the way she was dismissed. This was very careless on Disney's part and has left them open to retaliation. They could have simply announced the departure and left it at that. Future employers should take note that if you dismiss someone, say as little about it as possible.
Defamation means what they said about her is not true. Did Disney say anything that was untrue?
Not a Lawyer and definitely someone that would love to see Disney get bent over the legal barrel and financial bitch slapped... But Carano has no case and nothing to gain here except publicity with right leaning organizations. Disney gave her numerous chances to walk her comments back and try to educate her to what she did wrong. She refused each time. Disney then terminated her employment and made a standard PR announcement as to why they made the decision they did, something fairly common in the industry.
Defamation would require Disney made untrue comments or statements about her, and her to prove those statements were false or misleading. Since this all happened over public social media, there isn't any evidence Disney did anything but state facts and amicably as they could inform the public why she would not reprise the character in the future. If there is any comments that would qualify as defamatory Im not aware of any of them.
That's true for small businesses and businesses that don't buy ink (and lawyers) by the tanker.
Elon has super weird tits
We don't need to body shame Elon. There are scads of things we can behavior shame him on, and that has a chance of positively affecting the world (not him, he'll never see this, but someone out there might see this and reconsider thinking he's cool.)
Elon still twittering away his fortune.
She really doesn't want to be employed as an actor or anything short of a Fox or OANN pundit ever again hu.
