New age is an idealist school of thinking born in the west based on cultural appropriation of global indigenous practices. New Age is originally born out of the imperial core, and consequently has its roots in western imperialism, colonialism, Orientalism, and racism.
New age people use a fusion of legitimate spiritual traditions and invented superstitions such as channeling, reincarnation, crystal therapy and "alternative" medicine, to pursue their own personal, often consumerist, desires.
Such beliefs are widespread among fascist movements and fuel conspiracy thinking since they're not based in materialist philosophy. The link between white supremacy, imperialism and New Age is proven by the Orientalist thought of authors such as Julius Evola, Helena Blavatsky or by the appropriation of the swastika (originally a Buddhist symbol) by the Nazis.
Many companies that present themselves as an alternative to the capitalist pharmaceutical complex are successful businesses that earn millions of dollars every year.
