I guess it came from his point of view and not the validity of the claims made in the book. Hesse was like a new yorker doing designer drugs feeling the vibe while Evola was living in the woods channeling his inner spirit living in the mud

I would call The Strange Death of Europe dangerous. Considering it triggered the lefty cuck mods so hard to delete the thread about it just now.
Even though it's a book and making a thread about it is perfectly on topic and following the rules.

I find it highly ironic that /lit/ of all boards is the one to feature hardcore censorship.
The board that should be the place where differing philosophical and political ideas should be debated without fear and pussy mods don't literally SHUT IT DOWN when a thread challenges their world view.

You people should be disgusted in yourselves.

Dangerous as "this kind of mentality is going to prompt WW2". Hesse was very prophetic, I remember reading him saying that humankind was about to enter a new middle age after WW1.
