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.

• White Album - The Beatles
• The Wall - Pink Floyd

Yes I loved /r/draw /r/digitalpainting and some others.

Yeah definitely more musical genre related subs would be great. I loved /r/electronica and /r/dubstep before Reddit’s CEO made me wanna hurl and I stopped using their site.
