In the matter of Orson Scott Card
Editorial: It’s Time to Call Out Anti-Gay Author of “Ender’s Game” HERE
My thoughts fluctuate on this guy. He’s probably too low on the totem pole to rate a Douchebag Hall of Fame award. Isn’t it best to simply ignore him? But this combination science-fiction author/religious zealot has the capacity to deeply and permanently hurt others who don’t share his beliefs, so fuck him. Creep.
“Ender’s Game” is taught in schools, sometimes at the middle school level, and he has written several comics, so he has the ability to reach some young kids – I have a problem with that. When these kids go to learn more about him, they’re going to read some of this shit he spews. Slime.
