Calling Sue Snell "performative" for not changing her behavior completely misses the entire tragedy of her character in Stephen King’s book. Sue didn't just sit back and feel guilty, sending Tommy to the prom was her desperate, albeit naive, attempt at actual restitution. In the novel, her regret is so genuine and deep that she spends the rest of her life tormented by the fallout, as laid bare in her own devastating testimony in My Name Is Susan Snell within the White Commission records. Stripping away her complex, doomed good intentions to call her "performative" is just modern internet buzzword slop. Read the book. #carrie
