China doing China things.
China gets its feelings hurt so loudly. At least Russia is like, “no, Comrade, is nothing. Here, I made you some tea. Enjoy it next to this window.”
Reading that, any winner of the affected awards, however deserving, should decline their award. This year’s Hugos are clearly illegitimate.
I am beyond shocked.
Quelle surprise!
China? Censorship? Nahhhh
