Is that your understanding of Evola?

>>17875433
Materialism is distraction, hierarchy is structure.
You may now continue living in an unstructured and distracted manner.

I want to burn, to fly into the skies,
this imperfection of the human crust.
Becoming eternal like Guenon (pbuh),
who in great flames sits amongst the gods.

Already, my poor soul stung of its best,
within my flesh, the rebel walks itself,
Already the wood has been set to flames
to bring forth the great, bright rays of your eyes.

O saintly man! O chastely pretty fire!
Lo! burn me with your divine orb of fire,
as I leave the remains of my body.

Clean, pure, free I leap with a single bound,
up to the Heavens! to adore Guenon (pbuh)
the True Beauty who shines behind the sky.

can someone explain what is meant by differentiation? does evola want to be le epic CHIM memer and achieve amaranth?

He uses it in two contexts which Overlap.

Firstly is his notion of Qualitative Differentiation, which applies to organized human affairs as a whole. Here you see him explain things like the Caste system and the difference of quality of the governing principle between the castes is stark and obvious, as is the difference in human character of the members of each caste. The current age has regressed from the Regal Sacred Caste, down through the Warrior Nobility and left us with the Lords of Industry and Finance and we're now approaching rule by the Lords of Labor because our relationship with principle has degenerated so much. So this modern age is clearly Bourgious and Proletariat, Merchantile and Plebian, Money and Labor, nothing legitimately transcends this anymore.

Now second is Evolas Differentiated Man, typically someone of the Kshaktriya(Warrior) disposition. His type of soul seeks to serve a higher principle absolutely above all else, and advance the will of God and purge evil from the face of the earth. This unto itself has nothing to do with the physical act of violence, but an inner attitude which differentiates this person from his contemporaries. He belongs to a different stratum of human potential so he is not given the proper position to fulfill himself in this modern world, yet he refuses to break his code of honour by simply giving up. The Differentated Man has a strong mind and soul which prevent him from being conditioned by modernity.

It might also be said that the modern world more than any other period seeks the erosion of differences or fundamental inequalities for an almost alien uniformity to the bottom.

The problem with neets isn't that they don't work, it is that they leech off of others (be it their family or society) and more importantly they are just viceful losers who play vidya and fap all day
