Not to mention that Lovecraft himself was pretty much a shut-in who showed contempt and repressed disgust for the unknown, kind of like an angry passive-agressive nerd who would not be out of place in 4chan's /b/. Yes, his litterary contribution is awesome for pop culture, but he is really not the kind of guy you'd like to meet irl if you are not a W.A.S.P and bourgeois.
i.e: he described black people, polish and italians in less than flattering terms. It's easier to guess how he would with aliens.
