Where's the crank part? We can just put a wall around it and make it one of those closed cities they stuffed politically compromised scientists into to work.

In older games. If turning down the difficulty in the intended way didn't work, then they'd let you skip the section after, say, 20 failures. Or the game would have branching mission paths that made losing not a game over.

I have environmental concerns but otherwise this is super cool. Do the Darien Gap next China and dunk on the US.

Lovecraft is definitely problematic, but he repudiated his former views and became a Socialist towards the end of his life. Impressive, given he came from a background so reactionary his aunts thought the KKK were a bunch of overly progressive jacobin radicals.

You still have to decide if you want to forgive a life of racism or not, especially when it pervades his pre 1930 work, but that's a different question I think. I think reading his work can be useful, because you can see his insular racism, the confusion and contradictions caused by his New York experiences, and then his friends and experiences helping him to resolve the contradictions in the end, to the point where his final works have subtle anti-racist and anti-fascist themes most notably in Shadow out of Time.
