>Far from being a man of his time, Lovecraft's views were abhorrent even to his bigoted peers. A 1922 attempt to join an elite honor society within the KKK (The Glorious Lancers of the Sepulcher of the Church of the Ku Klux Klan), typically reserved for college men, was rebuffed on the basis of racial views evinced in a monograph he submitted for their consideration. In the document, he called for what we would now recognize as the genocide of Black Americans, most mixed raced people, Sephardic and Mizrahi Jews, and Catholics. This shocked even the 'elite' Klansmen, who held to a repressive and segregationist line, but were not comfortable with the mass slaughter or even forced repatriation of minority groups.
>>24710426I would love to give this guy some magic mushrooms and show him the streets of NYC today
Didn't he live in his mothers basement until he was like 30? He would definitely be a /pol/ poster if he was around today
>>24710426>Sephardic and Mizrahi JewsWhy would he spare the Ashkenazim?
>when you're too racist for the KKKI can see it, as far as Lovecraft was concerned only a small fraction of Anglo-Saxon people were white and respectable, fated to dwell amid a sea of eldritch horrors (assorted wogs).
>>24710464Great minds think alike
>>24710451Probably because Anglos are basically white Jews already.
>>24710448Not quite, he traveled the word and recorded his musings of other races and religions in his personal diary, how else would he come to despise them? He was also social and outspoken, as described by contemporaries, although reddit would make you think otherwise. The most virulently racist people you'll ever know are those with repeated first hand experience, you only have to gander at virulently racist white liberals who have been gated alongside other whites for 25+ years.
is this your fanfiction
>>24710426I wonder who wrote this drivel
The Klan should have upgrade their game.
>>24710482>traveled the worldthe furthest from Providence RI Lovecraft ever got was Key West and that wasn't until the 1930s. After failing out of high school, he was pretty much a shut in living with his crazy mom and aunts until he met Sonia Greene through the Amateur Press and she took him to New York. His time in Brooklyn is part of what broke him.
>>24710470What a cucked bitch he was, lmao. Imagine caring about race shit so much you declare YOURSELF a subhuman. Kek. Absolute comedy.
>>24710426I honestly think it adds to the horror element ngl. Guy who is legitimatley insane creates some spooky stories. Idk why people talk about lovecraft being insane though when you have authors like the nigger who founded scientology after realizing you can do anything and push anything behind the guise of religion. Now THATS genuinely far more interesting.
>>24712377Hubbard was a child-abusing, wife-beating, alcoholic, unhinged Thelemite.
>>24712377Incidentally, L Ron Hubbard’s Fear is a wonderful horror novella
>>24710426Look ma, I can post unsourced claims on the internet
>>24712347I admire his honesty if nothing else. It takes stones to create a racial hierarchy and not put yourself at the top. Reminds me of the time (before WW2 obviously) when Churchill observed that the Japanese were probably the master race.
