Two panel comic strip shows Everett True in a butcher shop, after receiving his parcel he beckons the butcher, when the butcher returns True pushes his head down to the counter so he can get a closer look at the change he has left after the transaction. True asks the butcher if, perhaps, he shouldn’t “wrap up the change, too?” He complains that “it’s all smeared over with blood and grease” and tells him to “Clean it off!!!”

    Ahhhh, and here we see the truth of True.

    While he may one day go after capitalists for abusing labor, he has no compunction about abusing a regular working man for his own preferences.

    Could it be that Everett is just a bully and perhaps a narcissistic abuser? Only time will tell.

      “narcissistic abuser” is an ableist stereotype. Just like “black criminal” or “trans groomer” or “emotionless autistic”

        I’d like to point out that ableism deals with prejudice against people with disabilities. Being black or trans (or both) are not disabilities.

        I’d recommend that you check the dictionary before you get all sanctimonious on somebody. It’s easy if you have an iPhone or iPad. Double tap to select the word, then select the Lookup option. If you speeled it correctly, it’ll show you the definition.

          Hatred of black people is racism. Hatred of trans people is transphobia. And ableism is just like racism and transphobia. Therefore, “n*rcissistic abuser” is just like “black criminal”.

          If you’re gonna nitpick, then pay better attention to what the grownups are saying.
