Also she is protesting the convention that hosts the Hugo awards, WorldCon, having Sergei Lukyanenko, a Russian SciFi author who supports his country's war in Ukraine, as Guest of Honor. Admittedly, after scanning his wikipedia page, it does sound like he kind of sucks.

Her statement is also about Uyghur genocide. This is concerning a convention that is routinely hosted in the US, Chicago in particular. Like two years ago Raytheon sponsored WorldCon when it was hosted in DC and attending authors were expected to pose for official photos in front of a banner with the Raytheon logo on it. But it's China we must take a moral stance against.

Now I haven't read any of S.B. Divya's work, it may be fine, but I first learned who she was a month ago or so when the AI issue was at a fever-pitch on Twitter. There was an argument at the time in SFF fandom about authors using AI to generate stories, the prevailing opinion being that it doesn't count and if you do it you should be relentlessly mocked. It came out that Divya had been working with an AI company to make a tool to plan and draft books for writers. She was quickly hounded off Twitter.
