He didn't. He lived off his wife and a small inheritance. He earned very little, Farnsworth didn't like Lovecraft and unlike his friend C.A. Smith, he refused to censor his stories.

even your pic related twists the meaning of words in itself. SERVUS is a wide terms that is not a 1 to 1 parrelel with the semi-modern concept of slavery. servus could and can mean anything from slave to servant (both terms developed from servus) abd ran the whole gambit of a service (another derivative term) relationship. so there were actual slaves who were “MASSA PICKN COTT’N” with near to no rights and brutally supressed tier to doctor educated service with a good decent livelyhood tier.

Yes and today we have prison labor, illegal immigrants, and outsourcing. That doesn't change the fact that at any point in history it was better to be in the leisure class of freemen than even the high end servant class.

This is literally why whites left cities en masse. Lovecraft was unusually racist but this isn't a good example.

Rome was on the level of Lacedemonia for how retarded they were with their slaves. Nearly every other ancient civilization was better.

yes it does, because it is saying that they rebranded slavery for the modern time when the post itself rebrands what it meant in roman times by not acknowledging the breath of the term and only referring to the very higher end of it and serendipitously not talking about the other end (which was way more common for most of the roman period). Ironically commiting the same act it is trying to j'accuse.

like saying that the average freeman today doesnt have it as good as the emperors personal eunich.
