as an aside I honestly doubt Amazon acted on a single word being flagged, because that level of scrutiny would be hurting its bottom line, but we only have one side of the story so we have to act upon that alone, still.
anyway, that's the difference between authorship and artistry, the fact that he caved show which side he's on. Amazon only obligation is with their customers and he's free to pursue less mainstream options if he wants uncompromised freedom

and? there are no laws that forbid grandstanding and loving money. Moreover those are his actions, the contradiction, or better yet hypocrisy, is on him. of course a description of the events would and should contain more of the same, since he's all barks but no bites to his feeding hand.
A typo is not that. A typo is when one mistakenly spells something incorrectly, or incorrectly adds or removes a word to make sentence ungrammatical.
If it was intentional, then it’s author fiat. You don’t have to like it, but that’s no excuse for removing a book from a store.
To note, if Amazon themselves say they have an issue with his language, that’s their prerogative, but right now it just looks like abuse of their reporting system.
