if you accept that egalitarianism is nonsense (ie not everyone is equal and humans are born with varying intelligence and capabilities, thus there is a natural hierarchy, thus some are born to lead and some are born to follow, and those incapable of following should be forced into slavery so as not to be a burden on others), then it follows that some type of feudalism or hierarchal order in which a significant portion of humanity plays the role of serf is preferable to democracy, democracy being a suicide pact with the lowest common denominator

The trouble with reading Evola's "muh Kali Yuga" stuff now is that we forget that the decadence he was criticising was modernism. If you hate the terrible postmodern world and read Evola, it seems as though he's agreeing with you but he isn't. Edgy teens who think they're special and superior love Evola for the same reason they love any ideologue who makes them feel as though everyone else is wrong and they are right. also is it possible for any fascist writer to not write about wooooo spoopy magicks

Look I love wheels as much as the next Wolverine, but you guys must understand that this man, though deeply read, saw much of things as he wanted to and within the limits of Perennialism. He also completely shifted gears following "Revolt" and the War. Seeing that the only political movements that could ever embrace his ideas (Fascism, Nazism) and disappointed with the occult milieu he simply surrendered to Nihilism. "Men among the Ruins" and "Ride the Tiger" are not victorious declarations. They are instructions on how to die with dignity. Still, the opening of part 2 of "Revolt against the Modern World" is pure D&D.

There are better things to read than Evola.

Also part of the point was that the world would not understand him or any of Traditionalism. If it really was the Kali Yuga then the forces at work would prevent any real shift or social reform. From Guenon to Dugin there is a real problem with defining the actual machinations of the Yuga. Is it a metaphysical passivity? Is it the result of dialectical exchanges? Does man have any agency in determining any of it? Until this school of thought defines their interpretation of the Hindu time cycles they have no grounds for a social reform or political action of any stripe.

They were oppertunists in some degree. Evola was trying to break in on the far Right radicals of the day using his youthful background in magic and various traditional lines.

There is not restauration possible in the modern world.
Evola left that idea with Ride the Tiger and I'm pretty much on his side in that regard. Apolitea. All that direct action and junta crap is only worsening it.

The only position to be taken by the man of Tradition is an almost Stoic Taoist one, where you go with the wave of 'degeneracy' ( how I hate that word, but whatever ) and do not interfere.

Why in the end would you want to consider "modernity as evil"? This sort of dualism is erroneous at best. What is unfolding now is as much part of the way of things as
It would be like detesting the fact you're old each day as an elderly person. What a waste that is.
It is certainly not progress, as much as the modern mindset likes to think, but it certainly is not "evil" either.

Also, I have some qualms with Traditionalism over how they don't seem to get the cosmology they're refering to. But that's a different topic.

>“Salafism, pure Islam, is on the front wing of the political struggle in the Muslim sector of the modern world. It is a fact and that cannot be denied. It is here that we meet the most clear and simple strategy, global thinking, well-defined goals: the establishment of the global Islamic State, the imposition of Sharia law, the organization of society on Islamic principles on a global scale, the doctrine of the 'house of war' (dar al-harb) wherever there is no 'house of Islam' (dar ul-Islam)', etc.... The Salafi project, radical anti-shia, anti-sufi, and anti-traditional – and this is not a distinctive feature of individual Salafis, but the obligatory metaphysics of all this movement. This ambiguity is reflected geopolitically in the close relations of Salafism (in particular, bin Laden and Al Qaeda), Brzezinski and the CIA during the Afghan war, that Americans have always used Salafist services, giving rise to interfere in the sovereign affairs of those countries which try to resist the United States (Iraq, Libya, Syria, anti-Russian Salafism in the North Caucasus), but on the other hand, it’s Salafis we also see active in anti-globalization, attacking U.S. forces. This ambiguity should conceptualize time and time again to bring round this dialogue, to explain all sides in the conflict. In the global battle against the Dajjal – the role played by Salafism? We have left this question open.”

>Gonna need some peer reviewed sources by legitimate medical journals

You mean:

>"I just want to make sure you didn't make it up." Because if I made it up, then it stands entirely on my back. Like an American, the shortcut you use for difficult issues is to judge their proponent as a proxy. If you don't like some ideas, look for hypocrisy, discredit the speaker. Which will be easy to do with me, I assure you. Heavy drinking, womanizing, misanthropic... maybe not even a psychiatrist. There. Do you win?

>It is what you meant, even if it isn't what you meant. There's plenty of writing on [crazy wacko occultists]. But you're resistant: no, [crazy wacko occultists are] bunk. And impossible to understand. That stuff can't be right. You want science, you want something with bullet points and a standard deviation.

>le citations

You wouldn't know how to parse the journal articles even if they were linked. You're not STEM, nor are you well-versed enough in philosophy and literature to understand why your question was retarded. "Link le science articles" is what people who browse Rationalwiki ask, because fetishization of authority is what happens when you don't know what the fuck you're talking about.

If someone linked you to a Newscientist writeup confirming the ruminations of "crazy wacko occultists" there's a pretty good chance you would nod your head, agree, and move on. That's what you're asking for.

Or all he wants is some legitimacy from your claims. Authority from articles is based on being aware that, in order for something to be posted or acknowledged at all, it needs to have itself sources from researches or other established or trusted sources. And you are foolish to assume that he, or anyone in his place, isn't able to talk with knowledge on the subject. You provided few to no points from which he could say anything against since, unsurprisingly, you didn't posts sources which talk about the research.

Path of Cinnabar for background and context on Evola's life, his insights into how he thought when he wrote his works and then Ride the Tiger.

Unless you really want to, Revolt Against the Modern World isn't a necessary read and Evola himself said that Men Among the Ruins is inferior to Ride the Tiger.

Then it's up to you if you feel the need to read his other books. He has some interesting insight on Eastern thought from a Western perspective.
