Here Larry Auster faces terminal cancer with courage and serenity. Many in the paleocon universe have crossed paths with Auster, a talented writer and disputationist who characteristically began from conservative premises and pushed them to extremist conclusions. At this stage I think his views might be described as some sort of blend of Meir Kahane and Sam Francis, if that were possible. He is, naturally, a foe and frequent critic of TAC, which has nothing Kahanist (and quite little of Sam Francis) about it. His hatred of modernity, multiculturalism, the decline of traditional patterns of behavior in the West was the force driving his work. I suspect by sensibility he could be grouped with various European fascist intellectuals—figures like Robert Brasillach or Julius Evola come to mind, though I am not especially familiar with them, but of course the latter were anti-Semitic and Auster is (I believe) ethnically Jewish and a fairly passionate right-wing Zionist. The sole country in which most of Auster’s views would be mainstream today is Israel, but he was probably too much of an American to emigrate. And if I understand correctly, he converted to Christianity some years ago, which would probably complicate his aliyah.
Auster’s blog, View from the Right, contains more than 20,000 entries and comments. A generation hence, an American studies student looking for a window into radical right-wing disillusion with post-millennial America could do far worse in dissertation topics than exploring the work of this idiosyncratic figure.

Evola was no Fascist. He was never a member of Mussolini’s National Fascist Party, and often criticized both Fascism and National Socialism. He was certainly a right-wing thinker (in the genuine meaning of the term, not in the way the media uses it as a catch-all term of demonisation for all political views they don’t like) radical traditionalist, anti-modernist, anti-democratic, anti-populist, anti-egalitarian, and an elitist, but hardly a Fascist or National Socialist (which are fundamentally left-wing phenomena).
Evola’s thought (as well as that of others of his mindset) has born fruit in such movements among the European Nouvelle Droit as GRECE, and thinkers such as Guillaume Faye (author of “Archeofuturism”), Alain de Benoist (co-author of the “Manifesto for a European Renaissance”), and Troy Southgate (a leader among British National Anarchists, who reject fascism and communism as totalitarian, statist movements.
If Western Culture is to survive it’s current degraded state, it will only be as a result of the revival of Tradition, the assimilation and implementation of the ideas and principles of thinkers and movements such as those above, and the rejection of the statist, modernist, corporatist, democratist/populist, egalitarian, multi-cultural ideologies that have lead Western Culture into the abyss of terminal cultural and economic decay.
