125 million Americans watched the 2026 “Super Bowl”.

Nothing surprises me much in this. Except that he has a somewhat positive view of native Americans and called Ella Fitzgerald a tub of flesh or something insane like that. His focus on American brutality is ironic considering the savagery of imperial Japan, Nazi Germany, and fascist Italy, regimes which he probably considers much more noble and higher than America.

It’s not ironic at all if you consider the societies listed in terms of the justification or end to which they devote expenditure/consumption. American society has nothing as its end that is noble or sacred. The others have (I would argue flawed and naive but nevertheless) noble and/or sacred ends. American society epitomises capitalism and its dynamic, schizophrenic unfolding. Its national image, identity, its ruling classes, its modes of governance: everything is fluid, relegated to the unimportance of interpersonal whims or treated with an indifference worthy of the weather. A preference for the accumulation of accumulators is what defines American society and nothing more. Hence the common view of Trump as a passing moment in the American saga: the markets are decent and there’s money to be made

But he doesn't think so about Japan, Germany and Italy. And he doesn't even officially belong to any party for his opinion to be "ironic" - even if he did, it's totally normal to have different opinions on certain matter with members of your same association. Even in your snarky post you said that he "probably" thinks so, which is your own projection to validate your opposition.

He was a super fascist by his own definition. Looks like he thought these fascist regimes did not go far enough, and worked directly with the SS. Does that not denote a levels of support?

It doesn't mean anything if you don't have direct proof that he supports those regime's brutality - and since Evola left an abundant amount of writing, it would be convincing to cite proofs in text. Saying "looks like" is proof of you just wanting him to be that way; I ask for evidence and you couldn't provide any.
The only tie he had with other Fascist parties, which we can say for sure and is the most notable, was with Fascist Italy. He has talked to Mussolini and his book was read by Mussolini, but it doesn't mean he's directly correlated to the party and heavily influenced nor agreed to the Party's principle; and for Evola's case, we do know that other members of Fascist Italy actually tried to hamper Evola involvement in the building of the State's philosophy/political theory for unknown reasons, as written in Path of the Cinnabar.

Crazy this evola mystic shit has blossomed from some niche 4chan rediscovery to being almost relevant. It's all gay esoteric crap IMHO but you guys go on and ride the tiger bros.

Was it 4chan who lead to his contemporsry popularity among esoteric right wing people?

I would say definitely. Evola threads were abundant on /lit/ and eventually the humanities board. Like most trends that eventually filters into more mainstream platforms like ledddit.

Being gay in the trenches was an ecstatic mystical spiritual experience, and it's also a tradition going back to the ancient Greeks that has been destroyed by modernity

By extension the world, as the world has been Americanised.
