“And Just Like That …” for being a “waste of airtime” as widely unpopular character Che Diaz.The non-binary actor, 48, implied on Instagram Tuesday that they were being fired from the Max series because of their pro-Palestinian politics, including their participation in several pro-Palestinian marches.“While they give awards away, casting directors and agents are making blacklists of actors and workers who post anything in support of Palestinians in Gaza to ensure they will not work again,” they wrote, in part.Ramirez recently participated in a Palestinian protest in Brooklyn, waving a transgender flag, and also took part in the Jan. 13 March for Gaza in Washington, DC.But a source close to “And Just Like That …” told the Daily Mail that Ramirez was “on the chopping block since last season” because of Che, a comedian and podcast host who was in a relationship with Miranda (Cynthia Nixon) that busted up Miranda’s marriage to Steve Brady (David Eigenberg).Che and Miranda later split in Season 2 of the Max series.“Sara was not fired because they support Palestine and the cease fire,” the source told DailyMail.com.“Sara was fired because Che brought nothing to the show anymore.
