As far as I can tell from the quotes I've seen here, Yarvin speaks a load of nonsense which appears to be a weird racist fantasy and is difficult to take seriously. It is fundamentally unpersuasive.
The Nazis did not gain power (by democracy) by promoting the atrocities they were to commit ten years later, because this was not a persuasive argument then. Instead, they enacted propaganda campaigns which shifted public opinion towards enabling them.

And that is the real danger to societies right now, and all the attention on Yarvin or John de Goes takes attention away from the slow but steady, incremental normalization of unpleasant ideas promoted by political parties in almost every developed country right now.

That gradual shift in what decent members of society consider acceptable or normal is what has made police violence towards protesters, locking up refugee children in cages, and the general suspicion of foreigners more acceptable, politically.
