Helena Blavatsky’s Theosophy mixed Hinduism, Buddhism, astrology, and Western occultism. Root races, Aryans and hyperborea type shit which Nazis yoinked later.
I don’t think it was originally problematic but it became so through generally being tainted by angloid bullshittery
They were basically all incredibly racist in that circle. Some of them liked to do what was basically spiritual phrenology.
There is a direct line between the esotericism of her era and what became of Nazi esotericism later on. Not a causal relationship, but it’s easy to follow the few steps it took to get there.
So it was always problematic and pseudo science nonsense. Those ideas are still used to scam people today too.
