I think people do not read as much political theory as they used too, probably because it isn't as trendy as it was pre 90s, and that's why you have to explain simple things like this. I saw it on the left (amongst anarchists/plateformists and postmarxists), and i used to be quite bummed about that, but it came to my attention that on the far-right, this was way worst. Their most recent "theory" is from Renaud Camus, and is basically a rehash of a protofascist theory en vogue around 1905. Called the "Grand remplacement". This is why i don't really care about protofascists in Italy or sweden. They are stupidly dangerous, but they are intellectually in the 19th century. They don't really have new authors (i mean, did you read Renaud Camus past the first 20 pages?), they don't have painters, architects, or filmmakers. They cannot build a culture on this, so they have to scramble something based on religion.
