His "ideology" was always the platitudes of the son of a fertiliser salesman. Junger is the Joe Rogan of the 20th Century.

He was always bomb mad. His entire philosophy is a combat stress reaction. Don't see how drugs were any worse than artillery shells in overthrowning the man.

Some anon once wrote that Jünger said he felt happiest when he once thought he had been mortally wounded.
I dont remember that in Storm of Steel; so in what memoiry type text did he write that?

In the 1930s he stops being directly politically engaged and starts exploring a kind of apolitical metapolitics founded in inner emigration. He also begins writing essays of a more metaphysical and weltanschauunglich character, more or less systematic and suggestive depending on his mood. He writes wartime journals from the perspectives he develops in these writings. After the war he writes novels exploring various archetypes of inner émigré that are both developments and extensions of the earlier metaphysical explorations. He also begins, controversially, editing and some say bowdlerizing his earlier writings for inclusion in his Nachlass.
