I'm still not typing that word. After that, frankly I had no problem snipping the string on the Lovecraft balloon and letting it float off into nothingness. Even though most internet commentators would say otherwise, writing is very hard work, and telling a story requires a lot of deliberation.

When I think of the time and thought it would take to sit down and craft a story with a cat named after a racial slur for black people, or an entire poem about how black people were only part human and filled with evil, it makes me think that someone who would do that isn't just going through an unfortunate, momentary lapse in their belief systems.

Looking at Lovecraft's career and accounts from his wife, it's clear his racist beliefs weren't confined to one period of time and then followed by decades of deep repentance. In fact, he was so unrepentant in his racist hatred that his wife, who was Jewish, described how his body would tremble with rage while walking amongst the diverse crowds of New York City.

By the way, he justified his relationship to a Jewish woman by explaining that by marrying him, she no longer belonged to those "mongrel" people, which only proves that hypocrisy and inconsistency are two common features of racism. She finally left him in , thanks in part to his relentless anti-Semitism , eleven years before his death.

It's because of all this that people like myself are OK with letting go of Lovecraft in light of this legacy, because those vile beliefs are still around today, and unless they're condemned, they'll continued to be accepted and dismissed as not harmful, which only helps them proliferate.

For me, it's not possible to separate Lovecraft from his work because his vile worldview is apparent in so much of his writings.

And that's one of the more painful things that lies at the Product of the Time argument, is that because it happened so long ago, that people's suffering shouldn't matter. That generational trauma doesn't exist and that periods of resurgence in racism don't have lasting effects or consequences.

What this argument is essentially saying is that these kinds of issues don't and shouldn't bother anyone. The thing is, all of us have had beliefs that are offensive and hurtful, but what's important is what we do to fix them once we figure it out.
