This scumbag isn't trying to cancel himself, he's trying to cancel the publishing company who wouldn't meet his demands and the artist whose work offended him.
He was "work for hire", i.e. the company paid him to write a story for their book, he provided the text alone, they provided the rest of the art, editing, etc. It's no way 'his' book and now he's try to destroy their reputation and livelihood because they didn't listen to his concerns that having an Asian girl in a kimono was stereotyping. You'd rather have a Western kid wear the kimono, because we all know where that would lead? Or, are you (as the white authority of Japanese culture) just outlawing kimonos now?
Hopefully he gets blacklisted by the industry but in reality he knows doing this will get him ample contracts with woke publishers. He's trashing this book and this company because he knows it will pay off for him in the long run.

We need to minivan authors like this and replace them with Richard Scarys to teach children basic economics without them realizing it.
That was a good watch. Thought it was going to be about communism for a second when it opened up on "Everybody is a worker."
Commies have perverted the meaning of words. Everybody is a worker and a capitalist. They are instrinsic parts of being homo sapien.
