The World Fantasy Awards used to give out a bust of Lovecraft as a trophy, but replaced it when the Cancel Mob came for them.
There is also an RPG called Fate of Cthulhu that denounced ol' H.P. in the preface of the core book before proceeding to monetize his mythos, exploiting its status in the public domain.
Theyve already tried to cancel him because of that. The thing is he wasnt even that racist in his actions.
what got him canceled?
Naming his cat the N-Word. But they havent been all that successful keeping him cancelled. They try every couple years.
who is the guy's name
It's HP Lovecraft. Stephen King without the soy (and I like SK's work).
Edgar Allan Poe with Agoraphobia instead of Rabies.
They did? I'd never heard anything about it until today when I was browsing some OG ID software Quake stuff.
If Dr.Seuss gets canceled for acknowledging that chopsticks exist, HP should be burned too.
We should force their hand.
