oh, my fandom. (lit SF/SJ SF, that is)

I don't really know the situation, but I really don't get the whole srs bsns reaction to the Hugos this year? I didn't think the general White Old School Winning sitch was any bigger a deal this year than it is ANY year, but apparently the ante, she has been upped.

And so I am trying to figure out what is going on before I make any judgements (I do have an initial response, but I don't know if it's accurate), but I can't FIND anything save some arguing on Twitter.

If anyone has the spoons to update me or point me in the right direction, do let me know, it would be greatly appreciated.

I think there are a whole lot of people upset about a whole lot of different things, possibly. (All the people I know were slightly-but-not-any-way-wanting-action irritated that it went to Willis instead of NK Jemisin, who is also a woman, but I don't pretend to follow a variety of people or even a variety of SF fans...)

But this I cannot really pin down from the Twitter conversation!
