"Also in the first half of XX century, ceremonial stuff, spiritualists stuff and theosophical stuff altoghether with egyptomania and later avalon and arthuromania were intertwined so thightly and occult scene so small that it was impossible to find pure bred. At least this is how i see it."

This is very true. In the 1960s revival, we sought out anything about magic we could find. By then there were some books around and they were getting easier to find. The newsletters like Circle Network News in the US came later and much of the magical interest flourishing then was Wicca-based.

Traditional and Alexandrian Wicca are fine, I mean they're 20th century ceremonial magick with romantic pagan flavour so it depends how you rate 20th century ceremonialism in the first place.
Various eclectic wiccans are often terrible as it's just vibe based spirituality, with witchtok and instagram "witches" who just post their altars and don't really practice magic at all.
Appropriation is just dumb woke idea used to hate white people.
