    Honestly I think that the entire landscape of science fiction awards has gone pear shaped and become hopelessly politicized.

    And, like the hyper polarization of human society at large, I don’t see a solution.

    You’ll always have the Sad Puppies (Vox Dei followers in sheep’s clothing) versus the folks who see themselves as doing good by amplifying under-represented voices.

    At the end of the day maybe these larger awards need to go away and be replaced by partisan versions, which is kind of a sad fate to contemplate.
