I wouldn't be so sure about that. Marinetti, who wrote the Futurist
Manifesto, also wrote "War, The World's Only Hygiene" and had extreme
nationalistic feelings.
The story goes that the Russian Futurists (e.g. Khlebnykov) chose to be
called something like 'Futuranians' to dissociate themselves from the
Italians and their political views.
