@drethelin Why? When the fandom is split between a vicious sadist like Benjanun Sriduangkaew & a vicious asshole like Vox Day, fuck the lot. -
@drethelin These aren't my people. Haven't been for a long time, apparently. Only working SF author I like nowadays is Carla Speed McNeill. -
@St_Rev this is a thing I find weird about internet "fandoms" They always view themselves and present themselves as the whole of the thing -
@drethelin@St_Rev Except that Vox Day has no problem reading and recommending anyone good regardless of politics. -
@i_contemplate_@drethelin This is why I downgraded Day from psychopath to asshole. I loathe him, but compared to Sriduangkaew... -
@St_Rev@drethelin Maybe I'm too Machiavellian, but Vox Day is the perfect weapon against the SJW entryist leaches. -
@i_contemplate_@drethelin Shrug, maybe. He was a loathsome asshole before they took power, though.

I mean, it's probably better to just not participate in "fandom" and enjoy good stuff on your own. My only regret is that the previously decent Nebula nominees anthologies now aren't.
-
As far as I can tell, there's no good stuff any more. Iain Banks was the last author I enjoyed, and he's dead.

GSV He Was Much Loved and Will Be Sorely Missed

Have you read Ninefox Gambit? Best space opera I've read since I finished the Banks catalog.
-
Never heard of it

I haven't been able to read novels in years, doubt I will in the future.
