The Dragon Award ballot landed in my Email inbox recently, I put off opening it until tonight and now I wish to god that I hadn’t.
The 2020 Dragon Award ballot is an SJW shit-fest.
Look at these fucking nominees for best science fiction:
The Last Emperox by John Scalzi (Tor)
Network Effect by Martha Wells
The Rosewater Redemption by Tade Thompson
The Testaments by Margaret Atwood
The Ten Thousand Doors of January by Alix E. Harrow
Wanderers by Chuck Wendig
The Future of Another Timeline by Annalee Newitz (Tor)
Gideon the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir (Tor)
This is, I’m afraid, the perfect example of Cataline’s First Law. All Libertarian media projects will eventually be taken over by SJWs. Because Libertarians always virtue signal to the Left.

Did you blog any nominees this go ’round? I wasn’t on top of it (Minna Sundberg didn’t have an eligible book this year. Mea culpa).
We couldn’t be arsed to get the word out during the open nominations period. The SocJus crowd are fighting a bloody holy war, and what do we “conservatives” do? Take a nap. What do we Libertarians do? Expect someone else to do the heavy lifting.
Bah.
Every last one of us that didn’t get the word out for writers and creators of the good, the beautiful, and the true when we had the chance owns this one. Lesson learned. I’m marking my embleer-frith-ing calendar.

More proof that evil isn’t a force in and of itself – it’s the empty hollow space that remains when good people fail to do their jobs. Don’t want the things you love taken over by the void? Shine light into the cracks and keep the darkness at bay.

Won’t be voting this year. 2020 is a shitshow anyway. Just one more thing to add to the dumpsterfire that is this year.

At least you can choose not to vote in categories. I voted for Cole and Anspach and for the Mandalorian. That’s about all there was.
