Space Princess Hullabaloo!
John C. Wright is continuing to steam forward with The New Space Princess Movement, which is kind of a reaction to The New Comprehensibility (the movement I Svengali-ized John Scalzi into starting). Normally, if someone started a movement in opposition to my movement, I'd be a mite peeved. But who can resist Space Princesses? (I know I can't.)
Following up the initial manifesto, Wright has republished a piece he wrote for Meme Therapy about Space Pirates and their interactions with Space Princesses. But what about Space Ninjas?

Honestly, I don't think the New Space Princess Movement was created in opposition to the New Comprehensibility Movement.
A movement that opposed the New Comprehensibility Movement would be the New Incomprehensibility Movement (which, honestly, certain John Wright works, such as THE GOLDEN AGE and the parts of ORPHANS OF CHAOS dealing with the 4th Dimension, could join).

John: "Opposition" isn't the right word to begin with; I withdraw it. Perhaps New Space Princess was in some way inspired by New Comprehensibility, but there's no reason for the two movements to be in conflict.
Let's move forward into a new, glorious future of comprehensible half-naked space princesses!
