I just learned that Anne Frank fanfic was more than just an SA username, but instead a real thing that exists. And I know that because I read an article about that in one of Germany's largest and best-regarded weekly papers, analysing its cultural significance. What the gently caress :psyduck:

People paying American dollars to let other people know they didn't agree with someone's position on something is the lifeblood of these forums.

I tried reading this article and my eyes just sort of glazed over. Could you give me the Sparknotes version? I'd like to know what they're talking about.

The Hugo awards are widely regarded as the most prestigious awards in science fiction. A few years ago a group called the "Sad Puppies" came about, saying that scifi had gone too far to the left, politically speaking, and that politics were winning out over quality writing. This has caused a lot of controversy, and Sad Puppies and their spinoff group Rabid Puppies have been likened to GamerGate for their beliefs and tactics. This year they managed to get quite a few things onto the ballets for the votes, and in some categories even dominated the category such that there were no non-Puppy entries.

The votes were announced last night. In every category except one, the Puppy-supported entrants came in dead last, even behind the vote of No Award. Fully dominated categories did not issue any awards as a result. The only category the puppies won was for best science fiction film, which went to Guardians of the Galaxy.

Unrelated, have some cops arresting a man while shouting "Stop resisting!"

quote:

The OUTSPOKEN SAMURAI with Kim Jong Un hairstyle challenges conventional wisdom.

Exploitation of women and the egregious violation of human rights has no place in todays world, YT asserts, and continues. but on what basis can the Koreans and the western corporate media unilaterally condemn Tokyo for kidnapping 200,000 women and placing them in sexual slavery!? What if this was nothing but a false allegation, like the notorious Scottsoboro Boys case which resulted from the public's imagination when hearing of a white women raped by black men, but in this case innocent girls being molested by Japanese troops?!

Yujiro Taniyama challenges to shed a light on the untold side of this divisive issue, which 99% of the western mainstream media choose to ignore and keep largely hidden from the public in their own countries.

Yeah I was talking about the 4chan image. I posted that image ironically, being that it does ignore both actual avancements being achieved in western europe, and all of Asia during the so called dark ages.

A question that's sometimes asked on /pol/ is "is ethnicity white?" There's an excuse to rule out everyone. The image pokes fun at that.

Probably not ironic. /pol/ is a horrible place filled with horrible people, though it's damned entertaining sometimes.
