To me it seems like fascists and liberals compete to co-opt him.

He’s reactionary through-and-through but he is a compelling writer; whether he would have aligned with fascism or not, most non-aligned people who read him have good odds of having their anti-communist indoctrination cemented.

He’s definitely an individualist and appeals to that mindset.
