First of all, lol, you are not in the SFF community if you think all conservative voices have been silenced, and that only liberal fiction is "message" fiction.

Second, even if there was some silencing going on, do you really think the best approach to solving that is to hold an awards ceremony hostage and try to eliminate all voices from the opposite side? Because that is Vox Day's stated goal, and whether you and they like it or not, the Sad Puppies are helping him in this.

Did I say "all," or that only liberal fiction is message fic? No, I did not. Of course there's pushback. As there should be. But for you to say that I'm "not in the SFF community" based on this is, frankly, laughable.

I'm pretty sure that Vox just wants to watch the world burn. But this year is done, and I'm not sure what the Puppies can do at this point except let the fallout happen. I don't think the Sad Puppies want to "eliminate" other voices so much as "expand the base." I've seen a lot of people say "oh, hey, I didn't know I had a say in this thing, very cool." Getting more people involved can only dilute Vox's influence. We need to invite more people to the pool party, not slam the clubhouse door shut.

Also, you can defend a guy's right to say stupid shit without defending the actual stupid shit he says.
