181888, mmmmmm... "reverse bigotry"
Posted by imcvspl, Fri Feb-20-15 04:27 PM
"We denounce and abjure and anathematize anyone who pretends to be a storyteller, but who, when asked to tell a tale of science fictional wonder, instead delivers a nagging lecture or dull piece of partisan political propaganda.

We are not opposed to women authors winning Hugos for writing award winning science fiction regardless of her sex, but we opposed to women authors winning Hugos solely on the ground of her sex regardless of her writing skills; or anyone winning a Hugo solely on the ground of being not white, or not straight, or not Christian, or any number of factors about the writer that have nothing to do with the writing and everything to do with the reverse bigotry euphemistically called affirmative action."
