A better question is why are you reading him?

>> No.12436640

>>12436633
I want to see what he has to say about fascism.
It's probably more intelligent than Hitler or Mussolini

>> No.12436643

>>12436640
As far as I know it is, but his theories are still just a wierd hodge-podge of Spengler, Nietzsche and Christianity. Not worth reading except as a historical curiosity. I hope you aren't a fascist OP

I'm too politically ignorant to align myself with a particular ideology. I would say I'm right-wing though.
And I would be reading him mainly out of historical interest though, yes.

No. Why waste your time with fascism, it doesn't make you based and redpilled to take those ideas seriously. You're better off spending your time reading Das Kapital if you want to understand history

Seriously, just listen to some Mosley speeches and see if any of their proposals make logical sense.

The common thread of fascism's proposals is beauty and vitality. There's no interest in any kind of sustainable project. It's violence for its own sake because, following Sorel and a distorted interpretation of Nietzsche, it believes that violence is beautiful.

Read his biography then, "My Life''.

This is the opposite of what Mosley believed in.

Sounds about right, what grievance do you have here? 74 percent of British people agreed with Enoch Powell's rivers of blood speech, yet he was ousted from the shadow cabinet of the PM the next day and the British government continued on its course to the present bizarro country it is today.

Did any of the 74% kick over a bin? Would've been quite a sight to see that bin lying on its side

read "tomorow we live" and understand he was an economic genius who for some reason latched himself onto an extremist cultural revolutionary ideology and completely invalidated his highly sensible ideas in the eyes of most modern britons even at the time.

I've only read 'Fascism for the Million'. The image online had a cool futurism cover but when it arrived it just had a BUF logo :/
It's really short an simple so probably a good start.
