The problem with Evola's "audience" is that they're not symphatetic to his mystical-religious worldview – one that is fundamentally based on the Neoplatonic, emenative hierachy of Nous, Psyche and Hyle, the utilization of correspondences and symphaties in ritual and the fundamental ascent of the soul to The One, as described by Plato in the Timaeus.
This is actually the central thought of Evola, and as I remember – in Ride the Tiger, I believe – he states as much: that one must live for a trascendental cause. The politics are just auxillary, in a sense, Utopian wankery.

Now, the 19th century occult revival, starting properly with Eliphas Levi, and forming on the Martinists, The Golden Dawn, Crowley, Bardon etc. was absolutely fucking dogshit compared to the apex of the Renaissance. Still, compared to these, Evola is actually not that bad (I'm talking about the writings of UR and his work on Hermeticism).

/Pol/ doesn't give a shit about Theosis and Theurgy, and certainly not as the cornerstones of a new culture.

What that cornerstone might be for them, who the fuck knows. I think Weininger noticed somewhere in Sex and Character that whenever a group vehemently gang up on another, they usually adopt the characteristics of their enemies.
Hence, /Pol/'s meme culture is violently niggerish, their strategy and cunning Jewish and their values fundamentally Muslim. What a fucking mess.
