So he wrote the word "nigger". He also wrote, "The swine began growing grey and brittle and falling to pieces before they died, and their eyes and muzzles developed singular alterations."
Clown world is attempting to define him by his "racist" remarks. The man was brilliant. Maybe this crap will backfire.

Lovecraft was a very dyed in the wool New Englander. He was born and died in Providence and hated to leave his house. If he were around today, he would have been called a neckbeard.
It sounds like the only thing he has in common with that story is the name Lovecraft. The writer that wrote the summary is gratuiously trying to associate him with it because it otherwise wouldn't get attention.
It's like writing a story about a dog and naming it Stephen King to get people to read it.
If you're going to read Southern Gothic there are already a ton of writers that do it better. Faulkner and Flannery O'Connor are a good start.
Lovecraft's first poem that was not self-published appeared in a local newspaper in 1912. Called Providence in 2000 A.D., the poem envisioned a future where people of English heritage were displaced by immigrants. 137 Surviving unpublished poems from this period, most notoriously "On the Creation of Niggers"

The insult "neckbeard" is a microaggression against eldritch entities who spawn from the Old Ones. Since many entities, our awesome lord Cthulhu has luscious beard of tentacles flowing from his neck, it is a common fashion that many shoggoths imitate, and as a result, many bio-normative bigots have stigmatized the look. These racialists falsely claimed it is a sign of "uncleanliness" and "obesity," when in reality, this is just an irrational prejudice based on the insecurities of xenophobic humans. Many innocent shoggoths have been denied jobs, and career advancement opportunities because of this stigma, having many of their civil liberties unjustly violated. We, as culture, must stop using this term!
Also, Faulkner and O'Connor are better writers? Wow, what a anthropocentric world view you must have! Sure, I guess if you totally disregard the many eons of the experiences that the eldritch peoples have experienced, and focus exclusively on a bunch of dull primates and their gentrification of the planet, they are better. #SouthernGothicSoHuman

I personally think Faulkner is over rated but he's got to be better than that piece of shit. Sorry, Cthulhu
Can you please bring back Cliff Burton? We miss him

Some called it The Shunned House.

It's only cultural appropriation when whites do it.
