• After careful consideration, this gets my thumb up. Not only because the content is so well executed, but also because I'm glad we're having this discussion, at least from the people that take it somewhat serious.
  
  I get the idea that a majority of what makes this production feel discriminating is the narrator. He's speaking in a condescending tone towards Kevin, in a certain way that I have experienced as well (although maybe not to an extreme degree). I think that's *that* what makes it feel like he's "disabled" or at least is perceived as such... but I can definitely recognize a lot more anxiety-like themes in this than anything else.
  
  But still, getting back to the narrator, the expressions of a single character don't necessarily reflect the opinions and views of the author of a work. That doesn't mean that it can still come across as being offensive to some people, and as I've mentioned before on IRC, that's your right. That's how things are in a free society with free speech, sometimes you run into things that offend you, and of course it's perfectly fine to discuss that. There's no point in either side putting the other down for seeing or not seeing discrimination in something, that doesn't get us anywhere.
  
  I can respect both sides that are reasonably discussing the issue, and I for one would enjoy seeing more productions in the future that push people out of their comfort zone and open the discussion about other sensitive subjects. In that regard, I think this demo has done well.
  
  And at least it's something different for once. Don't we all need a little break from 3D-flyby scenes now and then? I won't say this is the ultimate method, but it's definitely a decent attempt.
  
  tl;dr: fuck you, read it.
