Laughable to a degree but when some barely known like Beagle refers to one of the brightest new storytellers a 'half savage' as he did with nk jemisin it already lets you know what they're on about. Anyone thats read six sci fi stories before hmm lets just say 2000 will admit that they all started from the same place normally (white male protagonists that heroically overcome their social class/status to change their world), utter bollocks that was growing stale as fuck. Not to mention that by its very definition genre lit is Supposed to be some of the more creative shit out there. I could go on but better writers than me have already attacked this. I voted for Hugos this year and was happy to shut them whiney white folks out. Its like they felt it was thenlast sacred spot a white guy could be accepted for the sexist, racist drivel they produce without being held accountable.
