>is arguably the single most racist author in American history
>marries a Jewish woman
What did HP Lovecraft mean by this?
>>
he was just casually racist
>>
>>24946601
As Jews were allowed more rights in European societies, they adapted to fill the intellectual niche rather than being craftsmen. Anything that benefits from verbal IQ, they glommed onto. So while it isn't that hard to find a white wife who loves literature, if you picked one out of a hat there's a good chance you might turn up a jewess.
>>
>>24946601
Jews are whites that think they are special.
>>
>>24947042
Few white supremacists understand this.
>>
>>24946605
This, Lovecraft had spicy opinions but never hurt anyone due to their race (as far as I know).
>>
>>24947063
Of course he didn't. Look how weak and dysgenic he is. That Timmy wouldn't dare even raise his voice.
>>
>>24946601
implying jews are not racists.
good one.
>>
>>24946601
He became a shitlib cuck later in life. There are pages in his diary seething about Huey Long and Franco.
>>
>>24946601
He had less beef with Jews than with niggers. Simple as.

This is one of the most egregious pearl-clutching slanders I've come across, people get this one guy totally wrong, for no reason (besides him being a weirdo). It's totally unfounded nonsense. Baum is what actual racism looks like, lovecraft is what 4chan racism looks like (not real racism, there's no power involved). There's letters between lovecraft and his friends (some of his friends WERE actually racist) where you can see where the ideologies diverge. Lovecraft, at heart, is not obscenely prejudiced or racist, and his friends often take a "agree to disagree" point when lovecraft starts indirectly defending marginalized races such as native americans. His "on the creation of Niggers" poem is hilarious, he’s pretty obviously not a sincere racist, and he is powerless (like 4chan). Lovecraft is no more racist than the average 4channer, but he isn't treated this way. Although ironically he is sort-of treated the way 4chan is treated.

And don't get me started on "cosmicism", a made-up ideology that doesn't come close to approximating what lovecraft actual believed. He was a really spiritual guy, deeply compassionate and deeply thinking. The entirety of lovecraft scholarship is completely farcical retardation where the posthumous memory of the man has been hijacked by cringe atheists and retards.

Can I ask you for me to wrire more about lovecraft , I like your writing anon.
>>
>>24947095
He married the jewess way before his shitlib cuck phase. He moved with her to Brooklyn and seethed at all the minorities in NYC the whole time he was there.
>>
>>24947553
why, are you just fucking with me? that is not one of my better written posts
>>
>>24947608
Anon , I am a zoomer that broses 4chan.

I am just a starving man in a sea of shit.

>that is not one of my better written posts

Post treads , I wanna see them.
>>
>>24947042
Correct.
>>
>>24947502
>not real racism, there's no power involved)
Real racism is any action that is racist. the Idea that one must have "power" to be racist is propagated by non whites as a free pass to be as unhinged and hateful as they want.
>>
>>24946601
Jewish pussy too strong, no European will resist, they join groups of neo nazis in order to give themselves strength but they fold in front of the Origin of the world.

I don't think he was an indoctrinated racist just autistic and found this was an easy subject to discuss with people/shifted focus away from his autism. Or mirroring racist parents due to a lack of idea how to interact with people.

That's actually pretty common.

For example though, in his time travel story he has a racist character and goes full reddit on him calling him a retard for being prejudiced against blacks. This is done in what is clearly the authors voice, not some random character.
>>
>>24947502
How is his "racism" in contradiction with being compassionate and "deeply thinking", whatever that means? Racism in the 4chan sense of the word is usually the result of having enough sense to not trust mainstream narratives and feeling more empathetic towards people like oneself than most boilerplate libs who have a negative in-group preference.

>Dropped out of high school following a mental breakdown
>Supposedly did very little between the ages of 18 and 24; went out out little and only at night; he was practically a NEET
>Found his way into writing by an eccentric, doubtlessly caused by his isolation, and scathing critique of some guy's romance stories
He gives me hope, honestly. Not that I'm going to be a writer or anything but that even the most talented and creative are susceptible to NEETdom.
>>
>>24946601
*was.
Not because he, you know, died in his 40s but because Shadow Out Of Time is pretty blatantly nonracist, at least for Asians.
On the other hand you could argue that our highest quality racists in the West love northeast Asians, like Jared Taylor who would absolutely be a weeb if he hadn't got into American race politics.
