Fracturism vs. Oswald Spengler: A Philosophical ComparisonIntroductionOswald Spengler (1880–1936), in his seminal work *TheDecline of the West*, proposed a cyclical theory of history. Civilizations, like organisms, are born, mature, decline, and die. He argued that the West had reached its “civilizational winter”—a period of spiritual exhaustion and cultural petrification. Spengler rejected the Enlightenment ideal of linear progress, offering instead a dark, organic model of rise and fall.Fracturism, as articulated in the project files, emerges from a similarly post-Enlightenment sensibility. It assumes collapse as not merely likely but inevitable, and it builds philosophical tools—myth, ritual, self-authorship—to navigate entropy rather than deny it.Though both Fracturism and Spengler critique modernity’s illusions, they differ in tone, metaphysics, and ultimate response.
