HP Lovecraft - great writer, horrible racist
Similarly, Orson Scott Card - Ender's game and its sequel are great, but he's a raging homophobe.
I'm convinced that Orson Scott Card suffered a traumatic head injury at some point. I don't know how you could go from writing something as beautiful and intimate as Ender's Game to shit like Hidden Empire, which is creepy right wing Christian disaster porn (from what I can remember of that trainwreck).
Yeah, I don't know how the person who wrote "Speaker for the Dead" could be such a bigot. It doesn't make sense to me.
It's pretty simple: the bugs weren't gay.
This 100%.

Ender’s Shadow was an interesting book. Really made me appreciate Bean more than I did when I read Ender’s Game.
