If you think some fat liberal sperg worried about women's representation in wikipedia articles is "alt-right" or is the status quo you're a dumb ape nigger. Thrust yourself off some precipice.

I think you haven't read much philosophy if that's what you think. Many of the respected philosophers in the canon weren't explicitly political, and many wrote before your arbitrary left-right spectrum was created by a bunch of butthurt Frenchmen in the 18th c. Even the best Marxist and post-structuralist philosophers aren't even really left-wing (Deleuze, Baudrillard, Foucault, etc.) I don't know this meme is so popular around here, most like psuedo-communists like yourself reading a small bit of philosophy that suits your ideological taste and then being like HURRR ALL GOOD PHILOSOPHERS ARE LEFTWING HURRR DUMB RIGHT WINGERS CAN ONLY WRITE TOUCHY FEELY NO PHILOSPHICATIN. Was Plato left wing? Kant? Jesus christ you sound like a retard. Also: not far left ≠ far right.

>I despise this attitude where every type of discussion needs to fit neatly into a little box and any deviation needs to be removed. It's obnoxious because the only way it would actually happen is if moderation becomes so heavy that every other thread starts getting deleted for being off topic. That's not the type of environment that inspires fun or creativity. There has to be some freedom of discussion. Like I said, if you want to talk about the Great Gatsby for the hundredth time then have at it. There's nothing stopping you.

>Complaining about writers from the late 1800's/early 1900's being racist

Who the fuck still does this? It was a different time, that's just how people thought at the time. It doesn't diminish their writing capabilities.

Aside from Shadow Over Insmouth and that one essay about eugenics, does Lovecraft really expouse his political views in any of his writing?
