As seemingly the only REAL ML on here, it's so obvious all of you are some strain of ultra. I've dropped reply after replay after reply trying to explain this. I've made reading lists. But no, none of you interface with it.
Look, the world's not going to end spontaneously and that it requires conscious organizing of the people of earth to bring it. None of you are even Machenists, let alone Machen-Lovecraftists as I am. In my recommended reading list post last week I recommended you all read De Vermis Mysteriis, Unaussprechlichen Kulten (or just Nameless Cults if you think retaining the original German title is so pretentious), The King In Yellow, & Seven Cryptical Books of Hsan (no, not Hasan). I got 2 up-bears on that.
Have any of you even read the Necronomicon? Maybe it's because it has a POC writer? Ohm "It's old, it doesn't apply to modern times." Wrong, the stars are aligning, bringing our eventual end every moment. The politcians have only changed the world, in various ways. The point, however, is to end it.
Sure you'll misquote the Necronomicon, you'll say 'this is chtulhu fetishism' not knowing that Alhazred means A LITERAL FETISH, you damn fools. You're making us look so fucking stupid to the uninitiated.
I'll admit, maybe some of you are anti-cosmic, but you're not MLs, and you'll happily return to your thousand-year dark ages after the next syzygial alignment comes and goes. Meanwhile, I'm out there constantly agitating for the Old Ones to come back. I've started a vanguard of sensitive artists whose perceptive psyches have been dreaming of cyclopean depths and crafting small statuettes and bas-reliefs of the Elder Things and The Old Ones. We're engaging in eschatological praxis. Doing this has granted me sights beyond my eyes, and thoughts beyond my mind.
Meanwhile you're all making useless posts asking "are we appropriating shoggoth culture when we build temples to Dagon?," saying anyone from Miskatonic University is a "PMC," and endless struggle sessions over Hounds of Tindalos bans.
I'll end with a quote.
"The materialist has nothing to lose; the idealist is eternally suffering the pangs of disillusionment."
- H. P. Lovecraft
I don't think Shoggoths worship Dagon or anyone else, so you probably wanted to say "Deep One culture" or something, and the "sensitive artists having visions" thing is caused by Cthulhu, a Great Old One, but the Elder Things are a) opposed to (and crushed by) Cthulhu, b) much more mundane, unable to cause a global psychic phenomenon, and c) don't really have any surviving exemplars except ones frozen in ice, with the last ones who thawed being very quickly killed by Shoggoths.
Also, I can't believe you're doing this bit, mentioning Machen, and then not using "The White People."
Anyway, good job, I liked it overall.
This is fantastic.
I had to include both factions so as to not be sectarian. Also, if you read the Poakotic Fragments it explains what you think I got wrong. Obviously you're getting most of your knowledge from the MSM of P (mainstream manuscripts of Pnakotic) ((not to be confused with Poakotic).
