More insult from someone who probably hasn't read the book.

I find it interesting that H.P. Lovecraft is popular with teenage boys and leftists. A shut-in paranoid created a formula that features the world menaced by "eldritch" monsters "from beyond time and space" who become agitated when some innocent bookish type stumbles upon the Necronomicon and naively unleashes the dread Cthulu and/or other evil entities with unpronounceable names.

Seems like a metaphor for contemporary leftist politics.

P.S.

Despite my dismissal of Lovecraft, I still really like "The Color out of Space," "Cool Air," "Innsmouth Clay," and "The Dunwich Horror" and will re-read any of these maybe once every other year.
