And some of her early books that she wrote when the Nazis were in power, but before she was explicitly a Nazi, like the impeachment of man, don't explicitly reference Nazism.
Why people recommend it
Savitri Devi's book The Impeachment of Man explores the intersection of animal rights, environmentalism, and early ideological developments before her overt alignment with Nazism. Robert Evans discussed this work across multiple episodes of Behind the Bastards, specifically in 2020 and 2024, while tracing the trajectory of the author who turned Nazism into a religion. Evans noted that despite being written while the Nazis were in power, the volume does not explicitly reference Nazism. Furthermore, Evans explained that because of its thematic focus, The Impeachment of Man continues to find an audience and remains surprisingly popular within certain chunks of the New Age and environmentalist movements today. By examining the book, listeners gained insight into how extremist ideologies can sometimes mask themselves within seemingly benign cultural and philosophical frameworks, appealing to individuals who might otherwise reject overt political hate groups. Evans used the text to illustrate the broader, insidious ways fringe figures historically managed to weave their worldview into mainstream philosophical streams, maintaining a cultural footprint long after their initial publication periods by adapting their outreach to target sympathetic subcultures focused on nature and wellness.
