At this stage, the pro-Soviet positions of the Eurasianists and the National Bolsheviks became quite clear and close to me. They became the only positions supported by history, while orthodox communist constructions or White Guard myths were obviously untenable and contradicted by history.
Incidentally, political history has also belied Evola's predictions about the triumph of the Soviets as the fourth caste. Evolianism demanded a revision. The theoretical basis of such a review was presented in my speech at the academic conference in Rome, dedicated to the twentieth anniversary of Evola's death. Today it has become an integral part of traditionalist research (my thesis "Evola: Seen from the Left" is cited in new Italian reprints of Evola, in the works of Professor Giorgio Galli, and is the subject of discussion in many traditionalist circles). I exposed this theme in my article "Julius Evola and Russian Traditionalism", which is available in French and Italian versions.
Thus, the name Lenin changed its meaning. I think the story just happened in such a way that this new meaning came out on its own. It is indicative that even a hyper-reactionary and anti-communist as fierce as Geidar Dzhemal has recently devoted some warm lines to Lenin.
The mutation of Vladimir Lenin's metaphysical quality is an objective fact. When his skull stopped being sucked, like a lucrative candy, by filthy mobs drawn (finally) into the desolation of the sewers of "liberal reforms", the characteristics of a continental Titan began to appear on the horizon of the secret line of things.
A Titan who has lost his way, a strange Titan possessed by a great force, Starke von Oben , a Eurasian magical dwarf who has declared an unthinkable and impossible jihad in the web of the global percentage, in the world of exploiters of financial entropy and oppressive vice, and ...and... triumphantly won the great fight.
Lenin smashed the Philistine's brain, razed the stock market and banks, completely exterminated the lingering pre-revolutionary worms (the Gusinskis and Berezovskis of the day), turned stratified and alienated late Romanov Russia, built on the dead bodies of the old believers, upside down. , pawned and repainted for European nullities, etc.
Lenin mobilized the nation into total upheaval. Yes, it was bloody, but blood is inherent in the birth of all things. Yes, it was allegorical, but the ideological discourse of Tradition has already for many centuries been forced to disguise itself in dubious compromise formulas, otherwise kali-yúgic humanity would simply not understand at all, as it has become monotonous and bestialized beyond measure. .
However, a new understanding of Lenin and Leninism is not an easy job. The vulgarity of mere nostalgia or thoughtless dogmatism would be as out of place as the vulgar preaching of the anti-Soviet (incidentally, the anti-Soviet of today is the most disgusting of the Soviet of yesterday; it is no accident that true dissidents and true fighters against the regime have never able to occupy any position of importance in the political hierarchy). The new Leninism must be perceived in a magical, Eurasian, eschatological and geopolitical way.
He is a solemn and sad figure, a subtle maniac, through whom the unbridled winds of the Continent blow. Rebellious, restless, mobile, cunning, dazed, rapaciously carnal, with half a brain and small piercing eyes, he is more vital and perfect than any athlete or orator, more vivid, sublime and idealistic than any demagogue of "idealism" or "traditionalism". In Europe, I met many Guenonians and Evolians. Some of them were careless schizophrenics, others conformist, politically correct philistines (many work in banks, while others teach the basics of marketing). They are a bunch of misfits, incapable of original thought, action, terrorist acts, or any actual historical action of the slightest importance. The only thing they do is whine,
