This. The only reason you have this romanticised view of the past, OP, is because a) it looks 'quaint' and 'different' to you and b) only the good parts have been preserved. In reality living in the past was just as depressing and boring as living today, if not more.

I kind of agree. It's these parts that should be revived. Of course no one wants the bring back what they think the negative parts of pre-modernity were.

>Morals
Morals change pretty quickly, even in a supposedly religious hegemony like Europe under Christianity morality changed every half-century or so.

>God
Our concept of God is hardly 2500 years old at the earliest (our most advanced conception of God are probably less than 1700 years old). That's less than half human history, not to mention the vastly longer human prehistory.

>Church
Less than 2000 years old, and an organization that was solidified and reorganized many times over since. The history of the Church is intrinsically bound with the history of the formation of the state. It's a relatively modern European thing first and foremost
>inb4 what do you mean 2000 years is modern
I'm looking at the large time scale, as you should do if you're concerned with timelessness. The Church appears in a relatively late stage of human development.

Again a Church-thing. Some of the earliest cave paintings are either naturalistic or animistic symbolic, two things I'm sure you consider "degenerate".

A theologal virtue, so precisely an introduction of the Church, unless you want to borrow from earlier Middle Eastern tradition, still you're probably not looking much farther than 600 BC and I'm being generous.
Don't get me wrong, the search for timeless things is worthwhile if quixotic, but you sound like an opinionated faggot who just wants an excuse to claim that the old things he likes are eternal (and, I suppose, above the material realm?), when most of them are very Western-centric and need the context of a large economy to even exist.

Your claim about morals is ridiculous, people keep sacrificing themselves for what they think is moral, and people keep getting morally outraged. The difference with ancient times is we don't believe in the moral authority of institutions, but let's not kid ourselves, acting morally was always the responsibility of the individual, and institutional moral trust has been rather flimsy and scarce throughout history. Educate yourself on the history of the Catholic Church, perhaps the most robust moral institution in the past two millenia. It was challenged, fought, criticized and divided to the point of making a fool of itself every other handful of decades.

The point of fetichization is it has nothing to do with the actual past, it's just ideology in fancy dressing. The present by definition is there, so it's harder to fetichize although it's still possible.

>Fascism seeks a balance between the traditional and the modern.
Are fascism, traditionalism and conservatism really congruent ideologies though?
For instance what has Mussolini, the inventor of political fascism, rescued from the past and made alive in his present? Appropriating roman iconography and symbols doesn"t count, everyone in the past 500 years has been doing it, and the structure of the fascist state ahs very little to do with the Roman empire (which wasn' t even a legitimate legal entity but I digress).

people who appeal to the past in earnest recognize that capitalist, and more specifically neoliberal, society is extremely alienating and weakens community bonds, or outright develops structures in which communities can no longer form. i think this is probably especially true on 4chan, where a lot of us are young, disaffected people who grew up in the suburbs where community is completely nonexistent by design. i would argue that the only enemy trads really have because of this is capitalism, and by switching to a more communal system, we can see community restrengthen, and through that, "traditional values" restored.

italian fascism had anti-tradicional currents too

in general fascism is little more than pragmatic socialism with some window dressing on top

It's true that there is an avant-garde quality about fascism that doesn't mesh wel with any real traditionalism. Have you ever been to the area of Rome built under Mussolini? It's pretty fascinating, if a bit ominous, how much it draws from the artistic avant-garde of the time.

>The point of fetichization is it has nothing to do with the actual past
Did you even read what I wrote?
When a Fascist talks about the values of the past he isn't trying to give and accurate portrayal of what life was at that time, but he seems to distill what was good about it and discards the rest.
It's stupid to accuse someone of disregarding the "bad" if he trying to distill the "good".

>Are fascism, traditionalism and conservatism really congruent ideologies though?
No, firstly fascism is inherently revolutionary and at odds with any form of conservatism.
Secondly Fascism and traditionalism are also at odds, as tradionalism rejects modernity as a whole and Fascism seeks s ballance.

>Appropriating roman iconography and symbols doesn"t count
I kinda get your point, but it also makes little sense to disregard it.
Just look at pic related and tell me that Fascist architecture didn't seek a reconciliation between the traditional and the modern.
Rows and Rows of arches and the clear style of Roman type, fitted into a glass and steal building.

>For instance what has Mussolini, the inventor of political fascism, rescued from the past and made alive in his present?
Basically the present he was living in was the present of the total defeat of monarchism by global capitalism and liberalism with it's mass democracy.
As such it sought a return to a more hierarchical and less liberal society, just as it rejected egalitarianism in favor of a more "traditional" society.
In retrospect Fascism has to be viewed as the only real movement which opposed global liberalism.

I know you didn't ask this, but to some extent the National Socialist try to create a new aristocracy, of course not directly through a re-embracing of the old one, but through the creation of a new one.

>That example doesn't prove the traditionalist caste system invalid.

In this sense, the European middle age caste system is just as valid as the Indian caste system, but both have undergone a battery of reforms, counter-reforms and uprisings from all their bases. Damn it, even the Japanese have their burakumin so that all societies, even without contact with each other, have been modeled in very similar ways, which holds to some extent, your statement.

but Eternal? It is a very big word and a very long time and all human processes and phenomena take on the form and substance of the nature of their architects: failed, with points that don't quite fit and finally tend to wear and tear. The testimony to this is the blood that has been shed since the first dawn.

Just as I live in the bubble of modernity, you live in the bubble that considers murder not only as part of the system itself, but also a right of the warrior caste. The only thing we share is the idea of the sacred. The fact that, if war it is carried out, it must be executed with sacredness and respect. Something tremendously difficult to achieve, for the mercenary and the veteran nothing more than a childish dream, a burlesque and ill-intentioned joke by an immature idiot who has never entered combat other than through the illusions of the software. Any human being who has hated or been in the heat of battle knows the reality that would be just trying to reconcile the feral thirst for blood with the inhuman higher moral vision to assassinate the enemy by respecting him.

Fascism is autocracy that overtly uses statism over economy, media and other national apparatus to unite and energize society. It is symbolized by the ancient Roman fasces that celebrates the principle of strength through unity, in the sense that a bundle of rods is much more difficult to break than single rods. Indeed, a strong argument could be made that the principal example of fascism should be not Mussolini’s Italy, but ancient Rome itself, as Rudolf Hess alludes: “In a difficult time the Romans gave full power to a young and capable leader — and the Romans knew something about governing! They knew that “men make history.”” Mussolini’s Italy is a good example of fascism in the modern world on account of its revival of this Roman symbol to rapidly bring together what was before Mussolini’s time a deeply divided society, though it should be noted that Mussolini was not opposed to democracy on a fundamental level, given his own words: “Fascism is an autocracy on the road to democracy.” North Korea’s Juche (meaning “Integralism”) system is a good example of a present-day fascist system in practice, though it does not call itself such. Nevertheless, fascists (especially those who call themselves such) by definition should be essentially Roman in outlook. It also sucks ass

holy shit calling juche fascist you are a mega brainlet lmfao

fascism is an autocratic liberal ideology that predicates itself off of moral assumptions and "innate" truths. it literally does not have to connect to an abstract traditionalism, because abstract traditionalism is almost always boiled down to some kind of communalism. anyone reading this thread who has an interest in "traditional values" or traditionalism of any kind, do not fall for the fascism meme. look for ways to form real communities at the personal and the statewide level.

OP does not point to the past, but to heroes. Sacrificial heroism is the bread and butter of all civilizations. It is a nuclear phenomenon that lays the foundations on which rest the age of peace, reason and, in general, the improvement of the human condition. Some might call it "Progression."

In the image there is the blacksmith, who sums up the creative and constructive force of builders and artisans, the soldier, who is the defender and protector and the priest, who allows the harmony of the individual and the family with the Higher Order. I think the only mistake is to forget that all human beings cast a shadow. And yet, the observation of OP in heroism seems valid to me.

But what is the modern world? It is the world that began the day Soviet troops triumphed over Berlin in May 1945 while the idea of a 21st-century arrangement of monarchical systems ended up in the hands of their visionaries. However, it remains a diffuse and elusive concept. I would like to know what they mean by that concept.
