it makes me sad that futurism will forever be associated with this 🚬gy shit. futurist fascism was cool when it was about worshipping the (italian) automobile. The "nobility" of today are all resentful slave moralists (nerds) wearing the costume of an aristocrat. Their animating drive is their mortality. Kings thousands of years ago already knew how to cope with this and it was by breeding hella kids and building badass monuments. Their version of noblesse oblige is tacky digital AI shit, last men ruling over even laster men. I've made a post on this and Nietzsche go check my profile for it.
then if we take the ethos of fascist futurism: "life is an eternal war/struggle", we must carefully examine what this strife is for and the end results of such strife. This is where we compare "self-overcoming" with the modernistic "self-optimization". Self-overcoming focuses on the true battle of mind over matter. Getting jacked is not about the end goal of the body but the conquering of one's own laziness and poor habits. The mind wages war against matter and wins. Self-optimization is purely materially focused and on the end results, not the journey of overcoming struggle itself. This is useful for elites who simply view you as an efficient/inefficient number on the line. Quantity over quality, matter (and machine) over mind and soul.
