Me Before You: Better DEAD than disabled? [CC]

[TW: ableism, suicide] SPOILERS! I've mentioned problems with Me Before You before (http://bit.ly/1TRqIqa), but with the opening this week, I felt like we should discuss this story's impact a little more, how it and the positive response to it by the masses, directly impacts people in disabled communities, what it says to people in disabled communities. The hash tag for the film is #LiveBoldly is apparently only if you are able bodied, is aimed at the able protagonist, who is inspired to do so by the objectified disabled character, while the disabled character is supported and encouraged to end his life BECAUSE of his disability, suicide is the logical and selfless option.
