/lit/ - Literature

It was ok, I do not see a problem.

why'd you include a picture of the author as well?

Judging by the picture of author in your post, you haven't read the novel, your problem is not with writing and you should go back.

>>12438719
Op might be part of the /pol/ subhumans that tried to sway the Hugo and Nebula toward proto fascist authors, hence he would be a racist and also hate women.

op here. i did read it. it was alright. just noticed the author was black when i finished it and wanted to trigger some faggots.

only thing i didn't really like was how the main character fell in love in a pirate and had a mmf threeway. could smell the author's dusty cunt reaching out to me.

Because she's a black African nigger and the Hugo Awards are just arbitrarily handed out, just like every other dumb trophy, by the people on some Hugo Award committee, and the people on the Hugo Award committee are very, very likely to just automatically pick a femorrhoid or darkie so that they can have the prestige of their trophy.

And the real kicker is that not only has she won one, but she's won three consecutive best novel awards for books in the SAME, STALE SERIES. And the Hugo Awards just does this all the time. JK Rowling won a best novel Hugo for the fourth, yes, the FOURTH tired iteration of her obnoxious and awful Harry Potter series.

This is not surprising given that this is a trophy made up so that the same people who think that Asimov, Clarke, Heinlein, and Bradbury are the best writers ever could give out their own trophy to the bland shit that they like.

Yikes!

Three simple questions to those criticising the award:

1- Have you read the book?
2- Have you read ANY of the other nominees?
3- If so, which would be your pick, and why?

I know 90% will probably stop at the first question (me included) so there's that lmao. The book honestly sounds like standard fantasy fanfare, but people are just butthurt for the obvious reasons.

>>12440419
Yeah I've read it the book is bad race pandering shit. Her being a nigger makes her obsessed with being a nigger, so the book becomes a shallow roman a clef about race.

>>12439149

>>12440616
This is cancer to culture. Worse than cancer, actually. Giving underserved awards just because of the writer's perceived race. It's basically the equivalent of being a literal Nazi, but you reward certain labelled people instead of killing them. America is a degenerate country.

>>12438842
Sounds pretty based

>>12440651
To have equality of course.

>>12440664
>wanting equality is the same as nazism
Yikes...

>>12440686
>wanting equality is the same as nazism
Forcing equality is the same as forcing genocide. Any social chance that needs to be forced does more harm than good in the long run. Progressive people have in fact more things in common with the Nazis than they believe. I know you come from plebbit but please be redpilled before posting here, please.

>>12440686
Wanting equality is worse than nazism

>>12440686
Equality is a pretty broad and simplistic term. Can you be more specific? Do you mean every book should have equal representation for every race, gender, eye color, height, disability, weight, iq, etc? Or do you mean something else?

>>12440651
It helps darkies get with pretty white girls

>>12440704
You have been reading to many right wing conspiracy theories. There is no "forcing equality", because it's compensation for historical injustices and to compensate for white privilege. I'm going to ignore the fact that you use nazi term like "redpill" and so on. Be better.

>>12440719
What injustice did swedes do to blacks and Arabs then mr smart?

>>12440719
Whites have suffered historical injustices too though

>>12440719
>There is no "forcing equality", because it's compensation for historical injustices and to compensate for white privilege.
How about you give some justification that isn't pure ideology.

>>12440724
Swedes might not have done anything, but they still carry white privilege from the actions of American whites, British people and so on.

>>12440719
>There is no "forcing equality"
Giving awards to underserving nigger authors and artists is exactly that, forcing equality. If equality comes from a non-organic source, it'll do more harm than good in the long run.
> because it's compensation for historical injustices and to compensate for white privilege
Are you actually condoning white guilt? Cringe. You don't owe anything to these people, if that's what you've been brainwashed to believe. Neither you are guilty of anything. It's depressing that many spineless and shitty people think like this. It's backwards and pathetic, to say the least.

>>12440729
So by that logic do Kenyans carry black culpability for the rampant crime committed by niggers in the states?

>>12440729
This has to be b8. Genuinely consider suicide if you're serious.

>>12440719

I'm not going to respond to your racist post.

>>12440741
Institutional white privilege makes it harder for POC authors to get published and get awards. So affirmative action fixes this. So it cancels itself out.

> Are you actually condoning white guilt?
White guilt is warranted. White people have oppressed POC throughout history and that has of course also affected the dependents of those POC (and POC are of course still oppressed in the west). So affirmative action for that oppression is just to compensate POC. It's not an act of violence. It's an act of justice.

>>12440770
Hey, I'm more than willing to give up the ill gotten gains of my ancestors if all the niggers are willing to go back to living in mud huts in the African bush.

>>12440773
> POC authors
There's no such thing as a non-colored person. And it's actually easier for non-whites to be published nowadays. Nigger stuff just sucks major dick. It's not harder because they're niggers, it's harder because they suck at literature.

>>12440786
Modern civilization is unsustainable anyways so that's what is gonna happen regardless. Everyone is going back to the mudhut. And that's a good thing

>>12440773

Seriously consider suicide if you think this.

>>12440773
>throughout history
Blacks oppressed themselves far longer than whites did. Or do you think white people invented slavery?

>>12440793
>And it's actually easier for non-whites to be published nowadays
No it's not. POC authors have to get though obstacles that white authors don't have to deal with before they ever have to worry about whether or not they'll get published. You're racist because you're intimidated by powerful POC.

>>12440773
Then why didn't they need affirmative action to get into and eventually be over represented in some sports? I guess because that's something niggers actually do well. Unlike anything involving literature

>>12438711
has anyone even read one page of this book? or is this going to continue being a meme thread?

it's actually pretty good, as good (and better) than anything else published in the field those years

>POC authors have to get though obstacles that white authors don't have to deal with before they ever have to worry about whether or not they'll get published.
I'm what you'd call a "POC", you colossal faggot. And frankly "POC" is a rather retarded term to refer to non-whites. Literally segregation era tier. Or worse. Also nigger literature is terrible, not because it's done by niggers but because it sucks. It blows. It's subpar. By niggers I'm referring to Black Americans, make no mistake. Also, I'm not racist, I just tell it like it is, sorry if that hurts your little SJW ego.

>>12440837
I'm 1/2 Sub sub-Saharan African and 1/2 Ashkenazi, so I have more authority to speak about this than you have.

>>12440835
it's a sort of a post-apocalyptic story featuring an oppressed race of people who can control the earth's energy; examining many current day issues (climate change, racism, sexual identity) in a sci-fantasy setting

while the racial metaphor is quite heavy handed, stylistically it departs from sff-mould being narrated in second person with a neat twist incorporating that into the end of the first book. it certainly isn't a masterpiece, then again nothing else in the years it won hugos was, so it completely deserved the award if anything for being atleast slightly original

>>12440864
>story featuring an oppressed race of people who can control the earth's energy; examining many current day issues (climate change, racism, sexual identity) in a sci-fantasy setting
That doesn't sound original at all.

>>12440855
I don't give a fuck about your genes. I'm not white and thank God and His holy Grace I'm not a nigger, but I have as much authority to talk about this as you have. Culture belongs to everyone and literature is up to debate and discussion. And nigger literature is terrible and doesn't deserve the acclaim it gets. I blame Hollywood.

>>12440864
Pfff. The copy of the copy of the knock off of the plagiarized story. Funny that when niggers do it it's seen as wonderful. Like when a kid begins to write.

>>12441021

>>12440485
No, he's not making a point and is interpreting the thing that is very obviously going on (giving brown people arbitrary trophies so that brown people can feign substantive talent) in the way that the Hugo Award givers fully intend it to be interpreted by NPCs (that recognizing this fact just means that you are "afraid" of ever-talented brown people, and are in fact just jealous).

>>12440481
>inb4 bashing them for no reason

This goes both ways because literature is completely subjective. You can just look up any black authors of fantasy, claim that they're good, and then counter that any perceived deficiencies in their material is for "no reason", when in fact you picked these people out for no reason other than to buffer an unfalsifiable argument, unfalsifiable because there is not quantitative and universal measure of talent in literature.

>>12440864
>If anything for being atleast slightly original

The concepts of climate change, racism, and sexual identity in literature are unoriginal, the main social analogy of the series is based on an immoral anti-white slander (that the squalor of blacks in the United States is not mostly because of their own decisions), and three books in the series have consecutively won, further discrediting the theory that originality contributed literally at all to the consideration of why she was given the award.
