Rabid Puppies leader loses bucks

2022-10-21 01:42:24.596732+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

My schadenfreudometer broke, and I'd just gotten it repaired: "Vox Day" aka Theodore Beale's ‘Anti-Woke’ superhero film cancelled after losing all fan donations to a crypto scam

Beale is a longtime right-wing blogger who promotes his own role in the misogynistic GamerGate harassment campaign. He was also at the head of the Rabid Puppies< campaign attempt to usurp the SciFi Hugo Award with a host of right-wing fiction and innocuous, sexually charged e-books (which eventually blew up in his face spectacularly). Beale has been called “the most despised man in science fiction.” He reportedly called the lauded and award-winning SciFi-Fantasy author N.K. Jemisin, who is Black, an “ignorant half-savage.” These comments helped him getexpelled from the Science Fiction Writers Association.
