Last week members of the blind community announced that they would be boycotting the movie Blindness (although how you boycott a movie no one cares about, I DON’T KNOW) because they thought that it promoted negative stereotypes against people with a serious disability. Sure. Although one of our commenters made the astute observation that if the entire world went blind instantly there would definitely be panic and chaos, which isn’t a negative stereotype against blind people so much as a negative stereotype against pandemic outbreaks of debilitating diseases. But FAIR ENOUGH, blind community. OK.
But where is the outrage against the Blindness viral web campaign? This thing is horrible!
