DC Comics Hires a Hateful Homophobe to Write Superman.
Sigh....
When i see comment like this -
" I disagree wholeheartedly with your attempt to destroy his right to write."
NO ONE is doing that.
You would need a tool like the government to do that.
So I am disagreeing with equating a boycott with stopping someone from creating.
And yes, I know we're talking about DC comics, not washington DC.
They are a for profit company and if they make decisions that can negatively effect their bottom line, then so be it.
So to be clear - this is America, everyone has the right to their opinion, including being a gay hater OR being someone who doesn't want gay haters to be able to write stories for an iconic character.
And since no one is actually trying to get the government to stop OSC from writing i disagree with the notion that by boycotting someone it's the same as 'banning' someone from working.

Card has a right to believe what ever he wants.
DC Comics has the right to hire anyone they want.
And I have the right to point out OSC is a homophobic kook who should not be supported.
This leads to -
I am totally against someone trying to get the US government to blackball OSC.
It's so disappointing when people can't tell the different between free speech and a government crack down.
We're all having an honest conversation here, right?
Right?
