when i fair came to /pol/ and encountered traditonalism i thought evola was really genius. however over time i find him more annoying.  hes not useless and has many good ideas but he does a lot of word salad. he also has a lot of neo-gnostic tendencies. the obsession with initiation and having some unbroken tradition handed down by a priestly caste. survivethejive provides some great critique of this. the notion that the divine is unable to interact people except through this handed down tradition is absurd and evolas belief that the divine would only interact with someone pre-disposed to greatness is something i think is a baseless presupposition. he seems to think that you would basically need to be a hyperborean gigachad mystic in the first place before god(s) would provide revelation to you.  i simply dont think that is true and when i look at the most traditional communities (in the west) its groups like the amish who have a very congregational polity.
