SJWs Always Lie
Page 20
“Excellent speech. One thing that shines through is that there's more to inclusivity than simply not being exclusive. I'd like to think that SFWA as a professional organization can be a safe space for its members, and this incident certainly adds weight to the arguments that SFWA isn't, currently, such an environment. Is this time to re-visit the question of a code of conduct again?”—Charles Stross
Jemisin's attack on Mike Resnick, Barry Malzberg, and me was directly linked to in the official SFWA discussion forums by several SFWA members. This is significant for reasons that will shortly become clear. I responded with the following post, to which I linked using the @sfwaauthors feed on Twitter.
NK Jemisin is publicly lying about me and a few other things in Australia as she blithely advocates the continued self-destruction of science fiction.
Let me be perfectly clear. I do not describe myself as a "misogynist, racist, anti-Semite, and a few other flavors of asshole". Jemisin has it wrong; it is not that I, and others, do not view her as human, (although genetic science presently suggests that we are not equally homo sapiens sapiens), it is that we simply do not view her as being fully civilized for the obvious historical reason that she is not.
She is lying about the laws in Texas and Florida too. The laws are not there to let whites “just shoot people like me, without consequence, as long as they feel threatened by my presence”, those self-defense laws have been put in place to let whites defend their lives and their property from people, like her, who are half-savages engaged in attacking them.
Jemisin's disregard for the truth is no different than the average Chicago gangbanger's disregard for the traditional Western code of civilized conduct. She could, if she wished, claim that privileged white males are responsible for the decline of Detroit, for the declining sales of science fiction, even for the economic and cultural decline of the United States, but that would not make it true. It would not even make it credible. Anyone who is paying sufficient attention will understand who is genuinely responsible for these problems.
Unlike the white males she excoriates, there is no evidence to be found anywhere on the planet that a society of NK Jemisins is capable of building an advanced civilization, or even successfully maintaining one without significant external support from those white males. If one considers that it took my English and Irish ancestors more than one thousand years to become fully civilized after their first contact with advanced Greco-Roman civilization, it should be patently obvious that it is illogical to imagine, let alone insist, that Africans have somehow managed to do the same in less than half the time at a greater geographic distance. These things take time.
Being an educated, but ignorant half-savage, with little more understanding of what it took to build a new literature by “a bunch of beardy old middle-class middle-American guys” than an illiterate Igbotu tribesman has of how to build a jet engine, Jemisin clearly does not understand that her dishonest call for “reconciliation” and even more diversity within SF/F is tantamount to a call for its decline into irrelevance. Nor do the back-patting Samuel Johnsons wiping their eyes and congratulating her for her ever-so-touching speech understand that.
There can be no reconciliation between the observant and the delusional.
The SJWs in SFWA promptly went berserk. This was more than a challenge to their Narrative, it was a direct assault on one of their most sacred totems! Their problem was that I had not violated any rules of the organization in exercising my right of free speech to defend myself against Jemisin's false accusations on my own blog, so they produced an 80-page report that spent more time analyzing things other people said on other sites than it did about anything to do with me and tried to justify their attempt to expel me from the association on the basis of a single tweet made on an unofficial Twitter account. Ironically enough, I had absolutely NOT done what many other members, including the president-elect and two other board members, had done, which was to attack or link to an attack on a fellow member in a space “sponsored by SFWA, including but not limited to the SFWA discussion Forums, the SFWA website, the Nebula Awards Weekend, and the SFWA suite”.
This was easy for me to prove, as the Twitter terms of service made it clear that the Services belonged to Twitter while the Content of the tweet belonged to me. SFWA neither sponsored nor controlled @sfwaauthors or its content as @SFWA was the official account controlled by the association.
The report was so ineptly constructed, and so embarrassing to SFWA, that when I made it available to the public along with my 34-page response taking it apart section by section, the association's Operations Manager filed a DMCA takedown notice with me and with my ISP in order to bury it.

SFWA's attempt to bury it notwithstanding, you can read considerably more about the report and my detailed response to it at http://voxday.blogspot.com/2014/08/the-response.html if you wish. To this day, SFWA has neither publicly nor privately asserted that I was actually expelled from the organization, only that the SFWA Board voted unanimously for my expulsion. And while it is true that the SFWA Board vote took place, the fact is that no membership vote on the matter ever did, as required by the Massachusetts state law, specifically, Part I, Title XXII, Chapter 180, Section 18.
No member of such corporation shall be expelled by vote of less than a majority of all the members thereof, nor by vote of less than three quarters of the members present and voting upon such expulsion.
In any event, those are the simple facts of the matter. SJWs always lie. I don't.
