If I boycotted every person or organization that I did not agree with I would not be doing much of anything.

He lost his mind when he got hit by a car! He should write a book about that!

My favorite all time book. My favorite author. He's a douche, but he can write, or at least could. Not read anything by him in many, many years.

I read some of his books when I was younger but they eventually just wore me out. You can literally open one of his novels and randomly rip out 50 or more pages and you won’t know the difference.

Yup, the last book of The Dark Tower ruined the rest of the series, partially for his involvement/storyline & Other silly subplots/finale.

I started reading SK in the late 1970s, enjoyed most of his older stuff and have a half-decent collection of first edition hardbacks. I lost interest in the early to mid 2000s, he just seemed to get more verbose to the point of being boring. The Dark Tower series was a slog so I only got through the first three. Haven't bought anything since.

Like other libtard celebrities SK hasn't figured out that most of his fans prefer that he STFU about politics. Maybe he's got enough fuck-you money that he doesn't care but I doubt his political rantings add to his bottom line.
