I see Nietzsche called fedora a lot here but how does a fedora harmonise his new atheist, humanist beliefs and retro/nerd culture with the radical aristocratism and classical aestheticism of Nietzsche?

Athists like Nitzchuh cause he says in his works is the ultraedgy phrase, God is dead.

Depends on the translation. Pope and Fagles are definitely fedora core. Lattimore and Merrill are patrician core. Lombardo is hipster core.

Nietzsche wasn't an atheist, certainly not a new atheist. New atheism was what Nietzsche prophesied as taking the place of Christianity, that science would be worshiped and everything would have to be "scientifically object", and now we are seeing that with Sam Harris saying morals have to be "scientifically objective". Nietzsche subverted this through seeing things with "many eyes", that is, he said himself that trying to see from multiple subjective viewpoints.

Nietzsche was probably a Hellenist, but even if not, there's no evidence to suggest he didn't believe in god(s). He just doesn't like the Christian conception of God where we disdain the physical world and only care about the afterlife.

I'd also like to add that Nietzsche's aristocratism is very different from traditionalist aristocratism. Nietzsche didn't want to put the old families in power, rather he wanted new ubermenschen to take the power, people like Napoleon. A new ruling caste.

Hence why we say radical aristocratism, not traditional or regular.

I don't think you're using radical in quite the right way. A closer term would be neo-aristocracy, but even that isn't quite it. Nietzsche doesn't care about having princes or dukes or kings, he wants a pan-European empire administrated by Augustus, Napoleon, and Tokugawa. Nietzsche wants for Europe what Machiavelli wanted for Italy/, and just like Machiavelli he's not really talking about his long-term, ideal politics, but his politics for saving his world from an emergency. That's ample evidence that Nietzsche's long-term choice was something much different, almost anarchist (but not leftist anarchism, which is mainly what anarchism meant in Nietzsche's time, more like a union of egoists), judging by Thus Spoke Zarathustra. But for Nietzsche, people need human idols before there can be a radical shift, or else talking about acting and being an ubermensch is just abstraction and nothing that will actually change most people.
