What the hell was his problem?

cunts gonna cunt

>> No.9438001

he understood that esoteric knowledge is hierarchical by nature and was true to this?

>> No.9438082

Is he worth reading or just an edgelord like that pic would lead me to believe? Should I just stick to Nietzsche?

Evola is the poorest man's Nietzsche.

>>9437963
He took the whole ariatocratic narrative a bit too seriously.
I love the idea of Evola, I'm glad he existed: still, he is a worthless philosopher.
Can't tell much about his esoteric stuff, but people I trust told me that he understood nothing about Buddhism (but this was a problem for Nietzsche too).

His only problem was he was born too late for feudalism and too early to make dank memes. He did good for his times, so lay off the brother.

Jfc that looks exactly like me. Exactly, every feature. I thought one of you fagtrons hacked my myspace or something.

Have you read his only philosophical work (Theory and Phenomenology of the Absolute Individual)?

>but people I trust told me that he understood nothing about Buddhism
Prominent buddhist scholars and practitioners have praised his book, as others have criticized it. You can't simply accept the opinion of "people you trust" on a subject as complex - and as divided in sects and factions - as buddhism. Especially when this opinion is an unqualified, useless, uncriticizable "He understood nothing".
