Futurist Manifesto

>>7148375
Why wouldn't you ask on /pol/? They don't read? Thought they were fascism experts.

>>7148375
The Frankfurt School wrote some fascinating stuff on fascism and fascist crowds.

>inb4 muh conspiracy theory

>>7148394
They're just national socialist fanbois, with no apparent understanding of any deeper concepts in fascism than racist nationalism.

>>7148402
I've heard that Benjamin has written something on fascism and aesthetics, can you recommend?

>>7148394
They have a list of recommended literature floating around but it consists entirely of links to daily mail comment threads

>>7148394
Not really, they're just posers who hate blacks/muslims/'degeneracy'. They constantly post about the superiority of white civilization and culture throughout but have probably never looked into it beyond 10 minute youtube videos.

Not even legit Fascists or anything at all really.

I think it's pretty funny that the ones agitating for their own racial superiority are always, without failure, the poorest examples of said race.

>>7148428
It's mostly because they're trying to hide bog-standard racism behind some edgy ideological wall,like national socialism or fascism, and pretending they're championing a noble cause when in reality they contain the same inactive neckbeards as the rest of the boards.

Saw a poll on /r9k/ (don't ask me why) about which other boards they frequented.

About 150 answered. Virtually all of them posted /pol/ while there was only one c/lit/izen.

Makes me wonder about the frog-posting on here.

Anyways, let's not derail the OP's thread.

>>7148412
Yeah, read up on the aestheticization of politics.

>>7148453
Yeah I am, I might pick up the Penguin Great Ideas edition of The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction, cheers m80.

The writings of Filippo Marinetti as mentioned - Futurism in general. Giovanni Gentile's work 'The Doctirne of Fascism'.

There isn't much philosophy behind fascism. Mussolini was a joke.

>>7148412
"The Artwork in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction"

>>7148375
>philosophy of fascism
there is only one serious answer.

Schmitt's 'Hamlet or Hecuba'

>>7148428
I can say this is 100% true at least here in Spain. I've met right-wing intelligent people on the internet, but I've only met one intelligent National Socialist irl.

>>7148375
The Futurists wrote pretty extensively on their aesthetics and how they felt it should influence fascism. But good luck finding any of the essays. Futurism: An Anthology by Rainey, Poggi, and Wittman will contain a lot of what you're looking for.

For the more general stuff, you can read what Gentile, Mosley, or any of the other big name fascists wrote. Hell, Codreanu can be read for some Romanian-specific stuff.

You copied this comment from reddit.

>>7148375

Getting slightly tired of having to post this.


Ironically /pol/'s reading is actually in depth, unlike what the reddit-tier comments here state.

>>7148375
Here is something put together by /pol/ instead of people from /lit/

>>7148375

Some Reactionary stuff.

>>7148375
4/4

And this for laughs.

5/4

>>7148776
There are some very good books on that list, but the tags are laughable. The author of this read less than half of those books.

>>7148780
Surprisingly, there's a lot of interesting here, and not only girht-wing bullshit. Interesting list to have a lot different perspectives about a lot of interesting stuff, but not what OP really asked for.

>>7148787
This looks legit. I don't know some of the stuff there, but everything I know is good and can actually be associated with reactionary ideology.

>>7148870
No kidding, I read Camp of the Saints and it wasn't particularly "traditional", nor was it "Racist". If anything it was imperialistic, and anti-third world.

I know most of it is not pertaining to Fascism, but since Fascism was made taboo too early for it to have comprehensive literature I thought /pol/'s list would help him understand the philosophical standpoint of Fascism.

I wasn't familiar with a lot of the stuff there either. Funny what becomes well known, and what doesn't.

>>7148375
ΟΥΤΙΣ posted this some time ago. Someone else made a webm of it. If ΟΥΤΙΣ doesn't come to the thread (he won't), then this'll have to do.

>>7148477
there is plenty of philosophy surrounding fascism, don't be disingenuous

>>7149771
there is but most fascist regimes couldn't give two shits about philosophy or ideology
