Heidegger - bought in to the volkisch propaganda, thought that NS would be a total philosophical renewal of society able to overcome the technoscientific forgetting of being embodied by anglo-american capitalism and bolshevik communism, and thought that he could play court philosopher to it. was disappointed by how mediocre and ultimately trivial NS turned out to be.
Schmitt - careerism, he was anti-nazi up till March 1933. after 1936 he became a pariah because the SS distrusted him. also really hated communism and anglo-american capitalism, for reasons vaguely similar to Heidegger's but more inflected by catholicism, so NS seemed like a good bet under the circumstances
juenger - was never a nazi. he saw what they were from the outset.

Jünger was never NS. He was in the German military but he was deeply critical of Hitler both publically and privately, he knew he was untouchable as a war hero. He even wrote allegorical books about Nazism and how shit it was. He may have had a spot in the plot to kill Hitler and he refused a seat in the Reichstag on multiple occasions.

The answer to your question, when it isn't 'they weren't,' is 'because they were well-off German men in a totalitarian era and didn't have much of a choice.'

>Nevertheless, with the calamitous founding of the Reich in 1871, the devil stole a march on the Germans, dangling before them the tempting bait of power, aggrandizement, national arrogance. Thus they were led to imitate their prophets and to take their words literally, but not to understand them. And so it was that the Germans allowed themselves to be deluded by these disastrous fantasies and succumbed to the age-old temptations of Satan, instead of turning to their abundant spiritual potentialities, which, because of the greater tension between the inner opposites, would have stood them in good stead. But, their Christianity forgotten, they sold their souls to technology, exchanged morality for cynicism, and dedicated their highest aspirations to the forces of destruction. Certainly everybody else is doing much the same thing, but even so there really are chosen people who have no right to do such things because they should be striving for higher treasures. At any rate the Germans are not among those who may enjoy power and possessions with impunity. Just think for a moment what anti-Semitism means for the German: he is trying to use others as a scapegoat for his own greatest fault! This symptom alone should have told him that he had got on to a hopelessly wrong track.

>A collective attitude naturally presupposes this same collective psyche in others. Thus it is a quite unpardonable mistake to accept the conclusions of a Jewish psychology as generally valid. Nobody would dream of taking Chinese or Indian psychology as binding upon ourselves. The cheap accusation of anti-Semitism that has been levelled at me on the ground of this criticism is about as intelligent as accusing me of an anti-Chinese prejudice. No doubt, on an earlier of of psychic development, where it is still impossible to distinguish between an Aryan, Semitic, Hamitic, Mongolian mentality, all human races have a common collective psyche. But with the beginning of racial differentiation essential differences are developed in the collective psyche as well. For this reason we cannot transplant the spirit of a foreign race in globo into our own mentality without sensible injury to the latter, a fact which does not, however, deter sundry natures of feeble instinct from affecting Indian philosophy and the like.

I don't know, and ultimately he himself didn't know. He knew that Anglo-American liberal capitalism definitely wasn't it, and Bolshevism neither. For a few years [1933-4] he thought national socialism was it, but it ended up just being another vector for Machenschaft. His political trajectory terminated in quietism. Hence his resignation in the 1966 Spiegel interview. Whatever political form is appropriate to the essence of modern technology, he is "not convinced that it is democracy." But aside from that nothing else seems to work either. Only a God can save us now.

No moralising here. Juenger was correct.

It's funny you mention nihilism, because romanticism and nationalism seem to me like genuine attempts to form a solid foundation for life in the modern world with its terrible truths easy and open to see. How much longer will normies, especially men, put up with society and believe in its illusions before they realize we're stuck on a big rock floating in space and doing nothing but gratifying appetites until we die and your sons and grandchildren do nothing but eat, shit. breath, and coom again and again.

Internal analyses of Hitler and National Socialism are all very well and interesting, but sometimes you have to just take a look at the exterior. Hitler has much of the markings which make a great and admirable leader in history, to simply reduce him to a small man with an inferiority complex says more about someone's own person than Hitler. It's the same, but to a lesser extent, the 'movement' of National Socialism.

>There is no doubt in fact that Heidegger's hostility to the grand masters of Kantianism, especially Cassirer, was rooted in a profound incompatibility with their alien habitus: 'On the one hand, you had this dark, athletic little man, an accomplished skier, with energetic but impassive features, a hard, difficult man, totally committed to setting and solving problems with the deepest moral seriousness; and, on the other hand, a white-haired man, Olympian not only in appearance but also in spirit, with his open mind and his wide-ranging discussions, his relaxed features and his indulgent amiability, his vitality and adaptability, and, finally, his aristocratic distinction'.
>We can quote the words of Cassirer's wife herself: 'We had been explicitly warned about Heidegger's odd appearance; we knew about his rejection of all social conventions and also his hostility towards neo-Kantians, especially Cohen. His penchant for anti-semitism was not unfamiliar to us, either... All the guests had arrived, the women in evening gowns, the men in dinner suits. At a point when the dinner had been interrupted for some time with seemingly endless speeches, the door opened, and an inconspiciuous little man came into the room, looking as awkward as a peasant who had stumbled into a royal court. He had black hair and dark piercing eyes, rather like some workman from southern Italy or Bavaria; an impression which was soon confirmed by his regional accent. He was wearing an old-fashioned black suit. For me, what seemed the most worrying thing, was his deadly seriousness and his total lack of a sense of humour'.

General plan ost was from before the NSDAP even existed.

It's because they were nihilists, they exhibited all the worst aspects of the machine and bourgeoisie - the nation as property. At a higher level they offered no challenge to the bourgeois world, only a blind reaction to it which was nonetheless of the same order.
You already see the comments about soldiers and nihilism in the early writings, Copse, Storm, and Combat. And all the worst aspects of this nihilism, through technological mobilisation, came to the forefront with the national socialists. Death is an act of completion, and the Nazis fully embraced the European order of neutralisation, the death of the ancien regime.
It doesn't matter what face is given to it. It is the essential, what is inward and total. A brutal type of neutralisation is still neutralisation.

>Nationalism and socialism, the two great ideological movements for democracy in the 19th century, converge and unite in the 20th century. The more the technological collective develops, the more this tendency towards unification is encouraged. Ideologies become indistinguishable; there is no longer any point in separating them and limiting them to subtle differences from each other, since both have become equally useful fuel for apparatus and organisation. Ideologies do not establish differences in human nature; the contradiction here is the expression of a common and unified will that discusses only methods and means. The political constructs that replace constitutional democracy demonstrate this. Constitutional democracy is the political artwork of the bourgeoisie, which holds all the levers of such a state in its hands. But this form of democracy is incompatible with the technical collective, incompatible with the 19th century principle of the rule of law. We must realise this, otherwise we will wallow in illusions.

If asked, 99% of people would deny it. But almost every against national socialism reveals just how much humans absolutely despise a loser. Context behind certain actions doesn't actually matter, if they won it would have been "for the greater good", but if they lose, its just another negative to add to the shitpile. Human beings are really that simple - no matter what either side stood for, they love winners and hate losers. Only when enough time has passed for that conflict to be of little relevance does this not hold true.

How is the nihilism of the WWI and Interwar soldiers post-WWII?
It's the same as Jünger's reasoning and the quote is from his brother. FG had one of the earliest critiques of them, around 33 or 34, which influenced On the Marble Cliffs. And Niekisch as well.
One could see early on that the national socialists were not sacrificing themselves for an idea, they were not interested in dominion, but a destructive will for what Germany lacked. Like a blind rage rather than vengeance even.
Ernst would refer to them as lemurs, and leather and machinery forged from animal sperm. This was in WWII, but you already see it developing in the 1920s and early 1930s.
You don't even need WWII to argue against them. And On the Marble Cliffs is not only about the Nazis, it is more general, they only played a part of the neutralisation of Europe within the new world order.

I'm actually arguing with Stalinists and National Socialists back and forth. They literally just act the fucking same. They will talk about how glorious their pathetic causes are, and they never actually defend their arguments. They just use all kinds of sophistry to ignore everything that contradicts their world-view. Doesn't matter how many time socialism as failed, doesn't matter how many bodies National Socialism has under its belt in Europe - degenerates still want to defend and re-animate it. And even now, the degenerates in this thread are just opportunists calling themselves "fascists" while voting for zionist Donald Trump. You see sub-human commies do the same with groups like the CPUSA and PSL Stalinist, Marxist-Leninist groups tailing Democrats like Sanders and Biden respectively. You people are just trash, and its a waste of time to even talk to any of you. None of you people have anything to offer but the same old failures of the past. No wonder people like Junger and Evola you left you faggots alone. You offer nothing for this world.

How is he wrong? Fascism, socialism, and liberalism are all types of technological, or ideological, politics. The only thing that differentiates them is the geopolitical situation, extent of mobilisation, and what remains of national memory.

Even to the Hitlerites the national community was a spiritual creation, yet they did not even exist long enough to actually create a philosophy. The Hitlerites were entirely a political movement, they don't have theory—they had political objectives meaning they were at war.
Liberalism can be connected through Rousseau to the NSDAP, but we can hardly say what the worldview of the NSDAP was other than making German people 'wealthy and healthy'—a completely healthy and normal goal mind you.

No, Schmitt says that the essence of liberal democracy is to create an illusion that there doesn't exist incommensurable political beliefs, e.g liberal democracy creates a noble lie to hide the fact that in order for for a specific political project to be realized, other political projects have to lose, in other words, existential conflict is inherent in politics.
