He hosted the Hugos. Mostly talked about dead white men who influenced him (I think he even gave a shout out to Lovecraft) neglected to mention any of the legbeard and people of color nominees and winners and managed to butcher the pronunciation of a few bat-eating slanteye nominees and winners

>The host for this year’s festivities was George R.R. Martin and he spent an awful lot of time talking about John W. Campbell, noted fascist and racist. Pretty sure that between Martin and Bob Silverberg, Campbell (noted fascist and racist!) was mentioned more than the aggregate of the folks being honored. I aged approximately 67 years during Silverberg’s segment.

Sounds like you're seething. Besides I heard that the Malazan writer was more influenced by The Black Company books and that's why he started writing Malazan. However, I heard that some of the Malazan books were D&D campaigns.
