I have no interest in trying to convince people not to be racist on the internet...but i made a thing I'm proud of and I also have no interest in sharing it with racists.

Lovecraft was a serious bigot. His racism wasn't incidental, it was a major part of who he was and the stories he told.  When we use Lovecraft as an inspiration but fail to address his behaviours as a person, that acts as a tacit endorsement of his racism.  It empowers those who still share his views.

It's that simple.  If you're not interest in the game, move on.

Well stated.  I am a fan of the fiction of H.P. Lovecraft but not his racial opinions.  They are laid bare in his works.  In this case I can love the art and not the artist, but it's not easy...
