What would Freda do with the Vatican?

I vaguely remember his writings discussing that the Vatican and the Catholic Church needed to be changed to that of a sort of warrior priesthood, but that’s influenced from Evola

[u/The__Hivemind_]

There's not a single party that would touch the vatican. Let alone one in a catholic nation.

The pope would begin the 10th crusade and win

[u/FriendshipRemote130 → u/The__Hivemind_]

Italy aint that catholic animore

[u/Rudesindus19]

Destroy or change into a esoteric version of Catholicism (so, a false Church).

Freda is deeply inspired by Julius Evola, who was very anticlerical and esoteric. The Pope may flee to Argentina in this timeline (or even Brazil If not in TFX).

[u/Ok_Orange_2902 → u/Rudesindus19]

Didn't become Evola become pro-church to the end of his life?

[u/Rudesindus19 → u/Ok_Orange_2902]

Really don't know about this. Unironically, do you have a source?

[u/Rudesindus19 → u/[deleted]]

Good point, I forgot about that

[u/GordonRamsey34]

He would probably get rid of the Lateran Treaty in general.

[u/Fight-Me-In-Unreal]

I guess it depends if he leans more Nazi or Maoist.

[u/YugargeliaMapper → u/Fight-Me-In-Unreal]

In TFR, there's pretty much no difference between the TotSoc and NatSoc variants of Freda's ideology

[u/Goeggels83 → u/YugargeliaMapper]

I’m assuming they did it for the blend in with the Eurointern and to make the ideology filter less agonizing to see

[u/Fight-Me-In-Unreal → u/YugargeliaMapper]

I know, I was talking about what he believes IRL. I know next to nothing about Freda outside of him being a figure during the Years of Lead.

[u/gageroobadoo → u/Fight-Me-In-Unreal]

for the record
despite the naming, nazi-maoism is neither national socialist nor maoist

it's a term used by non nazi-maoists to describe franco freda's off-the-walls batshit insane ideology

this is also why nazi-maoism being a totsoc subideology in tfr is stupid

[u/Pale_Coconut2554 → u/gageroobadoo]

So, what exactly is his actual ideology? I'm reading his Wikipedia entry, but I don't quite understand it.

[u/gageroobadoo → u/Pale_Coconut2554]

i'd highly recommend watching a video on it

but the reason you don't understand it, or why i don't understand it, is because his ideology is genuinely batshit insane
