Lovecraft was a deeply elitist reactionary in the marxist sense for most of his youth who really wanted to rewind things by like 200 years to pre-capitalist forms, then was a soft-fascist against bolshevism, then was an FDR supporter and died in his 40s. All of the alien societies he describes in his books are basically communism (in a positive sense). So make of that as you will.
Did he? I thought he was a loltarian.
