K-2SO may not have been conceived as a disabled character, but people find him funny for the same reasons thy find Homer Simpson’s “stupidity” funny, or use the r-word. It’s a bigger problem beyond anyone’s conscience and intentions.
I don’t think so. Stupidity is a very real phenomenon. It’s not the same thing as disabled people. I think all intelligent people that find stupidity funny or use the “r-word” are well aware of that. Also, “disabled” is an overly broad term that could referring to any number of completely different disabilities.
