>A consequence of rejecting [the view that man was ever “purely natural”] is the overcoming of the antithesis between city and nature in the behaviour that should be “natural” for the human type who concerns us. It is the attitude of him who feels in place as little in nature as in the city, for whom it is normal and honest in a higher sense to keep his distance with respect to both…
>The human type that concerns us must consider nature as part of a larger and more objective whole: nature for him includes countrysides, mountains, forests, and seacoasts, but also dams, turbines, and foundries, the tentacular system of ladders and cranes of a great modern port or a complex of functional skyscrapers. This is the place for a higher freedom. He remains free and self-aware before both types of nature - being no less secure in the middle of a steppe or on an alpine peak than amid Western city nightlife.
One of his greatest insights without a doubt. It's easy to focus on Evola's incisive criticisms and ignore his interesting proposals for living in the real world.

That’s more interesting than I expected. I’ve been dismissing him because of all the retarded memeing and the hysterical attacks.

It's one of those authors that /lit/ never read so everything people say about him like >>16379204 is projection of their own personal failures and inadequacies

i stopped caring for evola once i realized that i don't need a complex philosophical framework in order to hate people that belong to certain demographic groups.

Well yes you could look at all human technology as being natural in the sense of being natural to humans, like beavers build dams, birds build nests, we build cities. I think the definition of what is natural or not lies the lifeform is fulfilling its purpose in harmony with its environment. Humans have the ability to raze and scour everything based on their own impetus, like a creature from one ecosystem that's been dropped into another where it has no natural predator and proceeds to wipe out all the other forms of life.

You'll find any author lit knows about will get people spouting lies, rumours, and all sorts of bullshit. The authors only mentioned a few times on here are only mentioned by those who have read them. Everything else is low-effort memes and fakery.

The work of evola is not about demographic groups...
