I guess he could copy/paste F&B thread posts in a chat window with them. Oops! Did he just get a clue from me? Sorry!

I sympathize completely. However, to use against us. Let me ask you a troll. On the one who pulled it. But here's the question: where do I think it might as well have stepped out of all people would cling to a layman.

It all begs the question. Why bother?

Having failed to.win the board over to TheGreatEthicsQuestOfOurTime (tm) is the Internet Hate Machine trying to bore us to death?

Or is that just Ultie?

See at this point I'd give up and move on to newer pastures but not the Legion.  They're bound and determined to convert us all to their side.  Why I still have no clue.

Ironbite-I mean there's the GOP levels of ignoring reality and then there is this group.

What's this?  An update on the Hugo Awards?  And it's about prolfic erotica writer Chuck Tingle fucking with the Puppies?  Well hot dang Ironbite, lay it on us!

Quote
For the second year in a row, a bunch of disgruntled "conservative" sf readers and writers are attempting to destroy science fiction's Hugo Awards by nominating slates of works that are, variously: rabid racist tracts; works by their ideological opponents; tepid military sf; works by bystanders; and weird porn by Chuck Tingle, a master of the form, who has nothing to do with any of this.

Until now. When Tingle -- who publishes "bizarre niche erotica" in great volume -- discovered that his book Space Raptor Butt Invasion had been promoted to the Hugo ballot by spoilers hoping to discredit the award, he sprang into action. He created a new title, especially aimed at the "Puppies" (the two groups who want to kill the Hugos call themselves "Rabid Puppies" and "Sad Puppies" for fantastically tedious reasons you can look up for yourself if you care to): "Slammed In The Butt By My Hugo Award Nomination."

Then Tingle took to Twitter, writing an amazing series of GIF-illustrated tweets, mocking Vox Day, avowed white supremacist and leader of the "Rabid Puppies."

The crowning glory of Tingle's campaign, though, was his announcement that his Hugo Award, should he win it, would be accepted by Zoe Quinn, the reigning bogeywoman of the Gamergate/neoreactionary right. In other words: every time a "Puppy" casts a vote for Tingle's work, they cast a vote for giving Zoe Quinn a podium from which to address the entire World Science Fiction Convention about the importance of diversity and representation in fiction.

TL;DR: Chuck Tingle finds out he's been nominated for a Hugo Award by fucktards, immediately shits out a story to commemorate said nomination, trolls Vox Day because why not and sends Zoe Quinn to pick up his award and give a speech if he wins.

Ironbite-god you people are stupid.

It'll be really funny if this leads to people voting for Tingle just so that Quinn will give her speech.

It doesn't concern you, Sister, that kind of absolutist view of the universe? Right and wrong determined solely by a single all-knowing, all powerful being whose judgment cannot be questioned and in whose name the most horrendous acts can be sanctioned without appeal?

Quote from: Supreme Court of Canada
Being required by someone else’s religious beliefs to behave contrary to one’s sexual identity is degrading and disrespectful.

It would make the Puppies as hard as if they had read Tingle's whole bibliography in one sitting: in their minds it would prove that the voters are a liberal hive mind.

Lets hear Ultie's Rage about THAT.

It should be spectacular.

I mean, here's his least favorite person ever, and she'll get a whole podium to herself to tell a scifi convention - with some rabid idiots in the area most likely - about the importance of diversity.

Tingle may or may not know this, but he's playing right into Vox Day's hands.  There are two possible outcomes: either they No Award Tingle's book and snub one of their sacred cows, or they vote for his deliberately absurd porno and make themselves look ridiculous.

"Slammed in the butt by the consequences of my misogynistic award-mongering"

I say award the ridiculous porn - nobody should be concerned with how Vox "I get hard beating down women" Day views them.

And it seems you are definitely showing friendliness to a man who said Lincoln should have been assassinated and that one person arguing against him was a half savage.

Were I to take you at your word, you stand so close to Vox Day that you shouldn't be surprised when you get painted with the same brush.

How is Chuck Tingle's bizarre gay porn one of anyone's 'sacred cows'?

I saw this article in the guardian and it looked good. Comments are interesting too: http://www.theguardian.com/books/2016/apr/27/george-rr-martin-rabid-puppies-are-big-winners-in-hugo-shortlists

Especially the commentator called ReallyNotThough
