Evola did not have a particularly high regard for fascism but saw it as the best extant system for laying the ground work for the kind of world he did want to see. Hence Superfacist.
Reads Evola once
that's why i said superfascist, idiot
You're saying the same thing guys
Why would you hate that he gets exposure?
Here is the thing though, he wasn't a regular fascist in the normal sense of the word. He only seen it as a starting point.
yeah, and he called himself a "superfascst". That's why i said it.

I don't hate that he gets exposure. I hate that he gets memed. The difference is that I don't think a lot of people who talk about him understand or even try to read him. Even if they do read him there's a bias against him because of the negative association with people from /pol/ or Richard Spencer. Even I groan a little when I open somebodies Goodreads profile and see a bunch of Evola books.
>No, no, I don't want to kill the jews because I hate them, I just want to build a better world - how does that make me a nazi?!?!
using Evola as a stepping stone to learn about any tradition is a pleasure, he has a lot of energy, adds tons of references to primary sources, stays close to the text and the structure of the traditions without dumbing them down too much or systematizing them too much so his books never read like manuals
he obviously has some biases for his racial and anti-moralistic stance, but that's easy to filter through and most of his racial stuff is not even as creepy as others and can be repurposed as "spiritual" races instead of nazi-style ethnic cleansing of anybody with less than 90% indoeuropean DNA
