Very few saw as far beyond the veil as Evola, I think you might have a wrongful perception of him based off alt right memers.

I don't give a fuck about anything else. This guy wrote no surviving works and is well known here mostly for stories tenuously attributed to him. If somebody says he's the best philosopher, or a great philosopher, or a notable figure, they need to read actual books instead of Wikipedia articles and 4chan captions

If anything, Evola was a neo-Platonist. He's right-wing, but definitely weird in his own way.

I dont recall ever having a discussion about Lyotard in this board
