Cracks me up how they whine about him being problematic but have no problem making money off his work using the idiotic excuse that they are re-examining it or something
racism is a false god
Love raft is my hero and the reason I became a professional writer. He was racist, but he also lived 100 years ago when such concepts weren't even questioned. You can appreciate the work and the creativity without having to dwell on the fact it was just an average, introverted man of the time. In 100 years from, now, left wingers of today will be seen as the anti Christ equivalent of that day.
Didn't he distance himself from some of his actual racist beliefs at the end of his life?
I heard that too. But honestly these people who obsess over Lovecraft and others must have a pretty good life. They devote a ton of time to him and his views
There's letters of him kinda renouncing his old believes. To be fair: he is not more "racist" than people around the time he lived. He is no more racist than anyone around his time and if I do hear people speak about it I like to point that out every single time.
Faggot.
No. Faggot.
