The comments on that Mary Sue article are depressing. It's disappointing how much sci fi fandom/ nerd culture has become immersed in gender ideology, and 'Diversity Equity and Inclusion'. I can't watch any new Star Trek or Marvel. They all feel like Woke lectures.

Reading that crap article by a nobody author (who once wrote a Harlequin novel!) got me thinking about how the Internet has democratized 'authorship' to the point that there's no bar for entry anymore. Once upon a time it would be impressive to say "I write for a magazine". Now anyone can find some online content mill and write all the propaganda they like for their little echo chamber with little, if any, fact-checking or editorial oversight. No wonder our society has gone the way it is.
