Does the fascist intellectual tradition have anything to offer modern political thought?

Nah
Fascism is just a shitty Modern regurgitation of monarchy and feudalism. Why would I go for the new knockoff when I can have the original?

It's unironically the most /lit/ political ideology, you'll see this once you transcend the postmodernists. Fascists were vastly ahead of their time, but being founded by poets and professors it's no surprise

>feudalism
At least know what the word means before you make a statement about it.
>>9483271
There has never been such a thing as a fascist intellectual. Every single one of them was a pseud.
SUM GOOD PROSE

Oh, for fucks sake! The italian fascists hated the old, beardy conservatives.

By definition fascism IS the most modern political thought
Mussolini didn't write much, but what he did was concise and good. He wasn't an intellectual as much as he was a politician, but he was well read.
Original fascism, the italian one, took its influences from the revolutionary socialism it was preceded by and harmonized it with Italy, as a historical, identifiable, solid phenomenon.
Protofascism is basically Sorel and French national-syndicalism.

The problem with recommending D'Annunzio on /lit/ arises from the fact most can't read Italian. Available English translations fail to capture any of the subtle flourishes of his writing. Most all of them come out flat and plodding which reduces the novels to plot alone.

>fascist intellectual tradition
It's an inherently anti-intellectual tradition.
Fascism seems to be a pragmatic ideology not based on a strict theoretical framework but rather on popular action and the poetic/aesthetic
Are there any philosophers that can be thought of as fascist?
>>9483380
Plato was never a fascist, the republic being the best evidence against this view

No one will take you seriously when you use the word unironically.

Hegel, Plato and that's about it. The other german idealists went back to being just normal reactionaries as were most of the authoritarian philosophers..
>>9483727
Antifa position s are inherently anti intellectual
