      Fantasy authors saying that science fiction is part of fantasy is entryism. Don't be an SJW communist. Say no to entryism.

      Pern is chock-full of fantasy tropes despite being science-fiction. There’s been a lot of interplay between the two, but there are differences.

      4/ space-flavored fantasy WH came first, then WH40k ported it Elves -> Eldar, Orcs -> Orcs, Dwarves -> Squats, etc. All the flavor aside, 40k is pure fantasy. https://twitter.com/iliveonthe/status/1171064091525431302 …

      5/ Yes, exactly. All birds are animals. All dogs are also animals. People who assert that "actually, dogs are birds", or "well, there's no need for the term 'dog' when the word 'bird' captures everything we care about" are retarded and/or trolling.https://twitter.com/random_eddie/status/1171069327476502529 …

      Fantasy and Science Fiction have enough elements in common that they can be conveniently lumped together in a single uber-genre: "Fantasy and Science Fiction". But they have enough unique elements each that they can also be separated into "Fantasy" and "Science Fiction". +

      6/ I mostly agree with this stance. English has always been a "the language is what the people say it is" language. The "SF don't exist; it's all fantasy" people are like the French Academy of Language. ...except even more retarded.https://twitter.com/random_eddie/status/1171071045501108224 …

          7/ "there's no such thing as SF; it's all fantasy" is the fantasy author's version of "the beach-ready body ads are offensive". There are two approaches, one disciplined, one flabby, and they are offended that other people see the distinction so they try to deny reality.
