71/ why, exactly, Sir Kevin the White Knight, should I re-read that? Are you upset that I had the temerity to civilly disagree with a female interlocutor, and use a book written by a female author as my cite?https://twitter.com/kevinmarks/status/1290768713520750603 …

82/ I see you put the words "real sf fans don't care about politics" in quotation marks. Odd, as I didn't say those words. What I said was that I don't care what Jeff V thinks of my politics.https://twitter.com/nberlat/status/1290774255374938113 …

83/ Please work on your reading comprehension. I never said that I don't read anything recent, and in fact listed a half dozen books published in the last year or so that I've read.https://twitter.com/WenSchw/status/1290774513307668481 …

84/ I didn't claim to be "one true arbiter of science fiction", I claimed to have an opinion. Also, the authors I laud have not stated any such thing; you've created that out of whole cloth. Please stop saying dumb things; it's tedious.https://twitter.com/nberlat/status/1290774729222234113 …

85/ > I love John Scalzi I'm embarrassed for you that you said this out loud, where people can hear it. This ties into my thread earlier, about how critics can educate earnest but naive readers in what craft looks like. https://twitter.com/McfuckyouSweety/status/1290774885149663232 …

86/ I do, in fact, understand that quotation marks have multiple uses. But in this case you were ascribing the words to me. What other use of quotation marks did you intend? Scare quotes?https://twitter.com/nberlat/status/1290775132626092038 …

87/ I never said that there are no straight white male SF authors; I said that they are not getting published by Tor, etc., and are not receiving awards. Scroll up thread for footnotes documenting the correctness of this claim. https://twitter.com/McJohnson922/status/1290775411341717504 …

88/ I'm not sensitive, quite the opposite. I'm RTing you as part of a pedagogic project where I show my followers what modern SF fans are like.

93/ No, it's not that you like things that I don't. There are many things that are good that are not to my taste (e.g. The Deptford Trilogy by Robertson Davies). What I'm saying is not that you're BAD but that your taste is IGNORANT and UNTUTORED. https://twitter.com/McfuckyouSweety/status/1290777782147059714 …

98/ I thought about what it would feel like to write a book as bad as Scalzi's typical output while I was writing my novels. ...and that's why I did six drafts, to make sure that that wouldn't happen.https://twitter.com/ZombieDevaney/status/1290779081647312897 …

102/ The problem, Brittany, is that affirmative action in publishing worked exactly like affirmative action always does: selecting people based on criteria other than ability. Have you LOOKED at the kind of stuff that wins the Hugo these days? Ooof. https://twitter.com/brittania_/status/1290779506156789760 …

111/ When have I painted myself as a victim, Brittany? My books sell thousands of copies, I win awards, I make good money from my writing. I don't NEED or WANT mainstream publishers. Sharing data on how the market works != claiming victimization. https://twitter.com/brittania_/status/1290780821607993344 …
