You might be stylish but you'll never be "military uniform plus bow-tie" stylish.

Gabriel D'Annunzio tried to combine fascism and art in the way you suggest. (Notice the daring bow-tie-with-military-uniform choice in the attached picture.) His whole political career was a strange sort of performance. He attracted quite a following (he was a sort of rival to Mussolini for a while). At one point he took over a small town & held weird rallies - cum - operas and suchlike. Obviously it all collapsed in short order.

— "But Gabriel, you can't wear a bow-tie with a military uniform!"

— "He who has to be a creator in good and evil, truly, has first to be a destroyer, and break values."

Life, if lived well and aristocratically, is the process of creating yourself. At some point, you have to sit down and conceive of yourself not as you are, but as you could be, and then make a constant effort and sustained self sacrifice towards achieving that goal.

The pic in OP has done this, in his own special way. He wants to be some tv character, have lots of sex with lots of different women, probably make a lot of money, etc. To him, this is the absolute maximum of human achievement.

But if you really can't conceive of anything higher than that, it's because you lack imagination, not because it's impossible.

Pic related for example, was a short, balding man with bad teeth and a small dick. He fathered more children than he knew what to do with, was known as the greatest Italian poet since Dante in his lifetime, was a celebrated war hero, was the first man to fly over the alps, founded a city-state through the sheer force of his personality, had beautiful and famous woman throwing themselves at him everywhere he went, and lived his life with all the intensity and force of will of a god. Nobody will ever compare to him.

If you are going to go full occult retard, why not go for Miguel Serrano's and Savitri Devi's Esoteric Hitlerist gospel? something about SS UFOs, Kalki and an inexistent Green Ray. Makes me think of when Salvador Dali said Hitler was as much of a surrealist as the Comte de Lautreamont.

Gabriele D'Annunzio was the GOAT fascist manlet imo. even Debord and the situationists wrote of him with grudging admiration. the bridge between fascism, fin de siecle decadence, pulp heroics, and the futurist avant garde.
