While I know this is true, I'm curious what's going on in this book to make you say that.

It's a shame how blatantly and aggressively political entertainers have become. William Gibson is the same way. He used to touch on his views with an abstract elegance, now he just bitches through his books like a Portland commie.

I had to stop reading "Gwendy's Button Box" after only a few chapters, for this very reason.
I have read all of his work up to that.
It was so prevalent that it completely interrupted any flow to the story.
It is a sad thing, to me.

i bailed on new Stephen King material during the GWB era for this reason, and it sounds like he has just gotten worse. I re-read a lot of his old stuff and listen to them on Audible because I still love those old books. he was always a lefty and he worked his politics in here and there, but the last 15-20 years he has gone completely off the rails. his career has followed the same trajectory of Howard Stern - he is now just a grotesque and demented parody of himself.
i had to unfollow the Stephen King reddit page too because it's basically just a toxic echo chamber of hate against anyone who isnt to the left of Stalin.

Mr. Mercedes sucked. I think Stephen King is done. Reading his drivel and political opinions to only end up w/ one of his inevitably bad endings is just not worth. Too many good books out there (ironically some written by King) for this crap.

Bummed out on this one, the first few chapters were great...Then the woke shite started. Could not read any further.

SO bummed because I just read and LOVED "Fairy Tale".
I do not recall any wokeness in it.
