WATCH: Gina Carano's 'Mandalorian' co-star defends the actress against cancel culture

On his podcast "The Bill Bert Podcast," Bill Burr defended his former co-star on The Mandalorian, Gina Carano, while slamming ‘cancel culture’ that led to her firing by Disney over her social media posts. The comedian plays Mayfeld on the Disney+ show.

Carano was fired after she posted an image on Instagram of a Jewish woman during the holocaust and compared the hatred against conservatives with the hatred the Nazis had against the Jews in Germany. "I'm on that f***ing show. Now I gotta watch what the f*** I say," said Burr.

Burr’s guest Joe DeRosa said that the faux outrage against Carano was so intense that Disney even cancelled the action figure of her character. "They canceled her action figure," DeRosa said. "That's how deep cancel culture is. They canceled her action figure. It's like, let the action figure come out!"

All Things comedy co-host Bert Kreischer asked Burr if Carano had ever spoken of her conservative principles to him while working on the show. "No! She was an absolute sweetheart," answered Burr. "Super-nice f***ing person and, you know, whatever! And somehow someone will take this video and they'll f***ing make me say something else, and you know, try to get rid of my bald action figure!"

Burr condemned social justice warriors who look to destroy celebrities by finding controversial statements and social media posts from people's past. "It's f***ing crazy time. There's people just waiting, just laying in the weeds."

At the time of her firing Carano said, "I am sending out a direct message of hope to everyone living in fear of cancellation by the totalitarian mob. I have only just begun using my voice which is now freer than ever before, and I hope it inspires others to do the same. They can't cancel us if we don't let them."
