But even that wouldn't have been enough. It is way too understated how his racism is at the core of what's called lovecraftian horror. That dehumanizing of people to monsters is based explicitly on that racism. The whole genre is tainted by his world view and this just isn't doing anything to address that.

The scene I'm talking about was one in the first ep where tic picks up one of his books and says that fucking racist or something.

Not enough.
