The reason people think Dugin is a fascist even though he has said many times he is not one is because they believe that if you're not a liberal and you're not a communist, you're a fascist by default. They use a model of three political theories.

You cannot "solve" or "win" the culture wars by moving from room 502 (leftism) to room 503 (conservatism) or 504 (libertarianism). The solution is to get to the root of problem of culture itself, to the ground floor of things, vertically, past the sham contenders.
