British actor Adam Pearson has publicly hit back at comedian Danny Polischuk after he mocked his facial disfigurement due to a rare genetic condition called neurofibromatosis.
The ailment causes very thick, painful tumors to develop on a person's skin, as is evident in this case.
{img}Polischuk posted the star's picture from the Oscars red carpet on X that was accompanied by a caption that read: 'Me and the boys after taking Chinese peptides for five years.'
Netizens were quick to slam him and call him out for the outrageously offensive words, reminding him not to be cruel towards someone whose condition is not in their own hands.
{img}Polischuk seemed to be referring to the growing and largely unregulated market of synthetic peptides, mostly from suppliers in China, for purposes like weight loss and muscle gain in this post, which was seen by more than three million people, including Pearson.
