...As a matter of fact...

>...As a matter of fact, most of the psychological race-differences which strike us so prominently are cultural rather than biological. If one could take a Japanese infant, alter his features to the Anglo-Saxon type through plastic surgery, & place him with an American family in Boston for rearing—without telling him that he is not an American—the chances are that in 20 years the result would be a typical American youth with very few instincts to distinguish him from his pure Nordic college-mates.

>race is just a social construct XD

Just lost respect for him.

You didn't know that he married a jew?
>Just lost respect for him
You don't matter

Oh boy, here comes the Fedora edits.

IIRC he still sperged out on anti-Jew rants in front of her

>*Most* *psychological* differences between races that are *prominent* to us correspond to cultural factors rather than genetic

He also wrote the following poem.

>When, long ago, the gods created Earth
>In Jove's fair image Man was shaped at birth.
>The beasts for lesser parts were next designed;
>Yet were they too remote from humankind.
>To fill the gap, and join the rest to Man,
>Th'Olympian host conceiv'd a clever plan.
>A beast they wrought, in semi-human figure,
>Filled it with vice, and called the thing a Nigger.

It's a powerful idea held by many great thinkers despite its appeal to fedoras. It is equally if not more cringe worthy to dismiss criticism of certain common religious practices based on the extremism of fedoras

why do you keep posting this thread. lovecraft was retarded.
