"...Scooter MacLean, a grammar school classmate with unfortunate jug-ears."

There is no need to bring up this classmate from Protagonist's past other than as an opportunity to make fun of someone with a physical difference using an outdated, deragatory term.

What happened, Steve? When did you get so mean? This entire book is... SO offensive.

Like, calling the non-disabled people in this world "whole"??

Fuck that.

Why are you doing this, Steve? What happened? When did you get so mean?

And calling non-disabled people in this world "whole"??

Fuck that.

"Dissing disabled people is crap behavior..."

Yeah, Steve, so maybe don't write a book that regurgitates ableist fairy tale tropes.

I mean, I'm appalled. Disabilities as literal curses? A protagonist who acknowledges the voice of the disability community, but disregards it?

I don't want to keep reading this.

Stevie may not be my favorite author after this one of it goes where I think this is going...

Joy OTOH, there's King Charles. Punch up, Mr. King, punch up. King has been insulting people since the 1970s. The difference is sympathy. Once he started making tons of cash, he was able to isolate himself from the hoi polloi, and he lost touch.
