      113/ I do, in fact, not realize that that is the subtext, because it's not. I write well, I'm content with what I write, I'm happy with the awards I've won, I'm thrilled with the money. I just lament that entryists have taken over the big publishers. https://twitter.com/brittania_/status/1290782054234255360 …

      I must say I find it humorous how many people who say they like SF - and I won’t gainsay them - say they are unwilling to read a tweet thread of 100+, most not even close to the character limit. I don’t know about you, but a 400 pg novel is a day’s light reading, this is nothing

      120/ You're saying that you're ignorant of Martin Delaney who wrote SF in the 1850s, Pauline Hopkins, who wrote SF in1900s, Octavio Butler, Samuel Delaney in 1960s, and dozens of other African American SF authors? That's pathetic; you should be embarassedhttps://twitter.com/RadFemme74/status/1290792376043220995?s=19 …

      Then where the fuck were all the non-white authors in the old days? Oh right, to you white men can talk about anything and everyone else needs to shut up. Face it the entire field of science fiction writing is deeply bigoted and here you are defending it.

      121/ Imagine being this guy and not knowing that one of the classics of SF, Dhalgren, was written by a gay African American almost 50 years ago, and asserting that minorities only broke into SF recently. Ouch. SO CRINGE.

      122/ And yet I'm the only one in this thread who can name female SF authors from the 1950s or African American ones from the 1960s, while all the woke children are telling me that SF was hopelessly racist and sexist up until last week. Odd. 🤔https://twitter.com/WinoCheap/status/1290807401151639552?s=19 …

      Your understanding of "the history of the art form" is narrow and formed by your priors. Your accusation that others are ignorant of that history, as if you're the arbiter of the that history, is shallow and very telling.

          History is more than names and dates, but doing history without names and dates is like doing math without numbers. There were celebrated minority authors of SF from the inception of the genre. You mentioned priors—doesn't that affect your own?

          That so many don’t know the works of C L Moore (with or without her husband Henry Kuttner) and Leigh Brackett makes me want to weep.
