No. You could argue the system that brought him to power is though.

A system that's sole purpose is to empower a few kid diddling degenerates. A system that has been intentionally perpetuated by those who embody the worst aspects of human nature. Those who prostrate themselves at the alters of greed and power. Those whose actions are driving our whole species to destruction. The plots and gears of this system were well in motion before any of us were born, and the window to stop it before is destroys us all has passed. The system is biological life's self-destructive nature made manifest.

In the end we are naught but mere animals. Like all other animals in a system where there are no natural predators and they are allowed propagate unrestrained, it will inevitably lead to the collapse of our ecosystem. We are just deer without hunters on a global scale. Cursed to be clever enough to realize we have brought about our own destruction, but not clever enough to stop it.

A Cosmic Doom has come for us all. The universe will go on without us.

Lovecraft Mythos - Cosmic Horror

1049 readers

H.P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos is a shared universe far larger and more terrifying than that of humanity, where ancient, malevolent beings known as the Great Old Ones slumber in the depths of space or time. After Lovecraft's death, the Mythos has been expanded and developed by many authors, including August Derleth, Clark Ashton Smith, and Robert E. Howard. These and many other authors have helped to flesh out the Mythos into a rich and complex Dark Universe.
