The verdict
On stream (Political bloodsports debate): "My opinion on Dugin is that he is a great philosopher and a profound thinker, one of the mightiest philosophers of the current age" — pointing to his substack interviews with him. Fascism defined operationally (xenophobic grifting, imperial advocacy), not aesthetically; positions read through post-Soviet context (European New Right, Anglo Box).
