>it is not so much that the country is flooded directly with Jewish authors, as that Jewish publishers determine just which of our Aryan writers shall achieve print and position. … Taste is insidiously molded along non-Aryan lines—so that, no matter how good the resulting body of literature may be, it is a special, rootless literature which does not represent us.
>There is a great and pressing need behind every one of the major planks of Hitlerism—racial-cultural continuity, conservative cultural ideals, & an escape from the absurdities of [the Treaty of] Versailles. The crazy thing is not what Adolf wants, but the way he starts out to get it. I know he’s a clown, but by God, I like the boy!
>The Semitic mind, like the Celtic and Teutonic, seems to possess marked mystical inclinations; and the wealth of underground horror-lore surviving in ghettoes and synagogues must be much more considerable than is generally imagined. … Jewish Folklore has preserved much of the terror and mystery of the past, and when more thoroughly studied is likely to exert considerable influence on weird fiction.
>The population of [New York City] is a mongrel herd with repulsive Mongoloid Jews in the visible majority, and the coarse faces and bad manners eventually come to wear on one so unbearably that one feels like punching every god damn bastard in sight

Poe beats Lovecraft, hundredfold.
How much did he really change American literature? He established Romanticism, Surrealism, Gothic, Horror, and Detective fiction in America.

This post has made me put Lovecraft to the top of my reading list. I always felt that WW2 was the point at which J publishers constrained what Whites consumed in entertainment and here Lovecraft is spelling out my exact observation. He is our guy.

"Greene told a biographer later that she kept reminding Lovecraft about her own background, but it didn't seem to dissuade him from his fear of Jews and other immigrants."

gigabased. acknowledging the high IQ of Jews and seeking out Jewish girls all the while hating them as a group and raising your hypothetical child to be a self-hating kike is the correct option

Not true whatsoever, your mind is broken and trying to figure out some kind of gotcha for liking an author that didn't agree with you politically.

>If Lovecraft’s racism is the one aspect of his thought that has
been subject to the greatest censure, then within that aspect it is his
qualified support of Hitler and his corresponding suspicion of
Jewish influence in America that has—again justifiably—caused
even greater outrage. He argued the matter at length with J.
Vernon Shea in the early 1930s, and the late date of this discussion
emphatically refutes the claims of many of Lovecraft’s apologists
that he somehow ‘reformed’ at the end of his life and shed many of
the beliefs he had spouted so carelessly in his Conservative essays
twenty years before. Some of his comments are acutely embarras-
sing:
>[Hitler’s] vision is of course romantic & immature, & coloured
with a fact-ignoring emotionalism … There surely is an
actual Hitler peril—yet that cannot blind us to the honest
rightness of the man’s basic urge … I repeat that there is a
great & pressing need behind every one of the major planks
of Hitlerism—racial-cultural continuity, conservative cultural
ideals, & an escape from the absurdities of Versailles. The
crazy thing is not what Adolf wants, but the way he sees it &
starts out to get it. I know he’s a clown, but by God, I like the
boy! 19
These points are elaborated at great length in this and other letters.
According to Lovecraft, Hitler is right to suppress Jewish influence
in German culture, since ‘no settled & homogeneous nation ought
(a) to admit enough of a decidedly alien race-stock to bring about
an actual alteration in the dominant ethnic composition, or (b)
tolerate the dilution of the culture-stream with emotional & intel-
lectual elements alien to the original cultural impulse’.

Quoted from "A Dreamer and a Visionary: H.P. Lovecraft in His Time", which funnily enough is the same source that wikipedia appears to be using to justify the claim that he was "decrying both his prior political beliefs and the rising tide of fascism". Always funny to see the left trip over itself in lies.
