2016 Hugo Awards Nominees

The nominees were released today, and they are as bad, if not a worse, shitshow as last year. White Supremacist Vox Day led his Internet followers in stuffing the ballots again, getting such works as "Safe Space As Rape Room", "SJW's Always Lie", and "Space Raptor Butt Invasion" nominated.

There are some wonderful works and deserving nominees (NK Jemisin, Nnedi Okorafor, Ann Leckie, Neal Stephenson, Neil Gaiman), but as a longtime SFF reader and a recent WorldCon member/voter, I'm disgusted at this.
