If you have a Hugo Award, it now also comes with an “Approved by the CCP” rubber stamp.
If you make a list that has been washed from people who can upset the CCP, you are milquetoast at best and a useful idiot [for the CCP] at worst.
I feel bad for last year’s winners who did not ask for this, but will forever by associated with the corruption of the awards.
