yes he is basically an Amazing Atheist but with an advent candle up his butt instead of a banana—the fact that he considers Crusader Kangz monarchism a hill to die on and a viable alternative to his present society, and his bank of insults regarding opponents makes it evident this is some sort of parasocialized political mask from a Halloween popup store and not a matter of religious belief.

He's an absolute brainlet—doesn't know what he is criticizing and may well not even know what he is praising

/lit/ will become a Bataillean board. Rentboy Guenon can stay with his lovers of beardless youths in his adoptive country

Since most users are teenage neo-nazis or tradlarpers there is very very very little to discuss. Everything posted is checked by this clump of most-active users against a few dogmatic principles to determine whether it is based or cringe, and various canned insults are then returned, in a chinese room sort of fashion where one cannot say for certain if there is any underlying intelligence. Something like this happens on any forum and has always happened, but what sets the last half decade or so apart is how staunchly ideological the concerns are. Even though the users are anonymous, what they have made of that anonymity is rather shallow. What makes them anonymous isn't the lack of persistent identity; it's that the post could have come from any one of them because there is so little differentiation. They do not try to read or understand or opine on a text, but pallidly scrape it for bits and pieces they can use to signal their bona fides to other posters, who are doing the same thing. Literary otaku have been replaced by political otaku, whose prime interest is to collect and show off their inventory of beliefs.

No, Bataille is the final boss of French philosophy and non-dualism more generally

They don't. Although Guenon seems to have read and hated Bergson as an example of modern philosophy. I am not sure any of his fans here have read enough to have anything to say beyond agreeing or disagreeing with each other about their guru since they tend to read 2-4 philosophers and make the same threads about them every day without deviation.
