I was looking back on some past posts. As my 2.3 faithful readers will recall, the Self-Published Science Fiction Competition ousted a book from the competition because the author held some opinions with which they disagreed. The rest of the story from last winter is here.
At the time I responded with what I thought was a polite and positive response. I thanked them for highlighting a book that I didn't know existed and that I ended up enjoying a great deal.
That was the sum total of my interaction with their X account. Nothing mean nor derogatory. Simple thanks.
Their response??
Progressivism is nothing if not the sterling examples of intolerance.
I will accept their kind offer and not bother them any further by referring people to any books involved in their competition. I will however continue to indicate that the SPSFC is run by an intolerant crew and unworthy of any serious fan's attention.
