The Walt Disney Co. Dropped actress and MMA star Gina Carano from its hit Disney+ series The Mandalorian on Thursday, caving to a cancel campaign after the actress compared the current political climate to Nazi Germany on social media. But in what appears to be a corporate double standard, her co-star Pedro Pascal has also conflated current politics with Nazi Germany and remains employed. But the fact that the Twitter account for the Brookfield Zoo wants Pedro Pascal and Pascal to be friends? I hope that Pedro Pascal can get life advice from this 2-month old pup. Gabriel Luna will play opposite Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey in the upcoming series from Chernobyl creators Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann. The series is an adaptation of the award-winning. However, a select few stars – those presenting awards – did rock up to the BAFTAs on April 11, and Twitter in particular was thrilled with Pedro Pascal's appearance. The second season of Star Wars: The Mandalorian got a big boost in its character roster, adding a few beloved characters from older Star Wars films and the popular animated titles.
The Walt Disney Co. dropped actress and MMA star Gina Carano from its hit Disney+ series The Mandalorian on Thursday, caving to a cancel campaign after the actress compared the current political climate to Nazi Germany on social media. But in what appears to be a corporate double standard, her co-star Pedro Pascal has also conflated current politics with Nazi Germany and remains employed by the studio.
The difference is that while Carano compared current Democratic policies to the Nazis, Pascal likened the Trump administration to Germany’s Third Reich.
In a 2018 tweet, actor Pedro Pascal attempted to smear the Trump administration by comparing the detention of migrant children at the border to Nazi concentration camps. Pascal used the hashtag #ThisIsAmerica while juxtaposing photographs of a Nazi concentration camp dated 1944 and what appears to be a photo of migrant youths in a border facility.

Pedro Pascal didn’t mention in his tweet the fact that the Obama-Biden administration built many of the fences, often referred to as “cages,” at U.S. border facilities that were used to detain adults and separate them from children apprehended at the U.S.-Mexico border.
While Gina Carano has espoused libertarian and right-leaning views on social media, Pascal has promoted his progressive ideology and left-wing politics on Twitter.
On President Trump’s last day in office, Pascal tweeted “BYE.” When Twitter banned the president earlier last month, the actor expressed his joy.
BYE.

This week, he praised his transgender sibling, Lux, who recently came out as a transgender woman. In Spanish, he tweeted “my sister, my heart, our Lux.”

© Provided by The Mary Sue Pedro pascal and pascal the otterOtters are great. I often like to cry over the knowledge that they hold hands and float together while they sleep so they don’t get separated. So, to log on to Twitter and see an Otter named Pascal trying to get the attention of Pedro Pascal? I truly am surprised I didn’t combust.
Brookfield Zoo in Illinois shared a picture of their newest river otter. A sweet baby named Pascal joined their family, and the zoo tweeted at The Mandalorian star Pedro Pascal because who doesn’t want Pedro Pascal and a river otter named Pascal to be friends?

To make matters worse for me, they posted a video of Pascal just living his best life.
Just keep swimming 🏊, Pascal! He is developing important skills like swimming under the close eye of his animal care team. Pascal 🦦 is already becoming more confident!

According to the press release about Pascal the Otter, the program has been working to help the river otter population in Illinois since the early 90s and now the species is common throughout the state!
” The Illinois population of North American river otters—fewer than 100 individuals in the late 1980s—was once threatened due to over harvesting and habitat loss. However, a successful recovery program initiated in the early 1990s by the Illinois Department of Natural Resources helped increase the number of otters in the state. The program included relocating nearly 350 otters from Louisiana to central and southeastern Illinois. The state also engaged in conserving wetlands and wooded areas along streams and rivers, which is otter habitat. Today, the species is common throughout Illinois thanks to these efforts as well as expanding otter populations in neighboring states.”
The reason for Pascal’s name is actually because of the sweet otter who gives you life advice in the popular game Animal Crossing. But the fact that the Twitter account for the Brookfield Zoo wants Pedro Pascal and Pascal to be friends? Delightful. I hope that Pedro Pascal can get life advice from this 2-month old pup.
You can donate to the Chicago Zoological Society here to help them on their journey to protect and care for these animals.
I would like to personally thank the Brookfield Zoo for delighting me with content of Pedro Pascal and otters. It felt specific to me and my interests, and I will take any and all content of Pascal the Otter just going about his day.
