What exactly is the differentiated man? He doesn't really explain it and when he tries to it just lapses into vague mysticism.

I would describe him by what he isn't. He is not
>a capitalist
>a liberal
>a progressive
>a physicalist
>a materialist
this is what he's NOT.

Someone who believes in Qualitative Differentiation and Embodies it. His value system is different and better than anything the modern world could possibly reward you for.

Yes, Evola is good at criticizing systems and philosophies like nihilism/Nietzsche, existentialism/Sartre/Heidegger and a lot of others, but is poor at proposing anything in its place beyond vague mysticism. Maybe that's the point, but I feel that's uninteresting.

Someone who has enough time and money to spend years staring at a wall until they can see shapes moving.
Basically your average NEET, only "differentiated" by a monocle and tantric groupies

In what chapter does he address it? I'll see if I can explain it in a simple fashion for you

the first.

I mean he spends the entire first chapter explaining it, there's nothing mystical about it. Basically someone who is in his entire being opposed to the modern, materialistic, degenerate world and has no choice but to revolt against it. Have you read other Evola books before?
