I'm noticing a trend where Desantis supporters think they're smarter than everyone else....almost like dems do

There's been a lot of flak thrown at Baen and their writers, and a lot of them have been doing this weird little dance where they try to remain themselves and also try to be mainstream. It's very weird.
It's kind of funny - mostly sad - that we only have one even semi-mainstream "based publisher."
The problem is capture. Any publisher who tries to be mainstream and based is going to be hiring and networking with... blue state danger hairs and people in the publishing world. A couple of places get around this by building their own gated business (Castalia comes to mind).
Pretty much the same here. I just got done reading almost all of Weber's Honorverse (besides the slave revolt line and the last few books in the Shadows of Saganami line). And all of Drake's stuff I have. But Baen as a company has come into the leftie's sights, and I don't know how long they can keep being themselves... they already got rid of Baen's Bar.
