  Nietzsche is good in small doses unless you’re feeling depressed. It’s fun to indulge when that’s the case

    He’s a mixed bag. Sometimes he said some really cool and intuitive things, other times he was a theocrat and was later co-opted by Nazis.

      For anyone unfamiliar, his sister was a Nazi, and after he died she managed his legacy in the worst possible way.

      Nietzche had an interesting relationship to Jews and Judaism, informed over time by his own personal relationships in ways that probably didn’t influence his philosophy for the better. Parts of his work is about what he considers to be strong cultures, at which point he praised Judaism for being a particularly strong culture. Later in life he was less positive.

      This of course comes on top of his thinking about religion, which is less one-sided than often portrayed: God is dead, we killed him, but importantly that was in all likelihood a huge mistake.

      So the Nazi connotations are partly a result of his sister’s management of his legacy and unfinished/unpublished works after his death, part how Nazis ended up using his works long after his death.

      He ended his life living with his sister in a rather fragile state, with his great writings behind him. Judging him by his death bed would be doing him and his work a great injustice. But even then there’s no evidence to indicate he was some sort of proto-Nazi.

    All I knew about Ecce Homo was the title, and went away disappointed.

    I really tried to read “Thus spoke Zarathustra” and gave up after about 20 pages. Maybe the French translation was bad, but I just want able to understand what was being truly said, and it was all messy and confusing dialogue.

    If I want to understand Nietzsche’s philosophy, I’ll read somebody’s else analysis, tyvm.

    That’s how I feel about Emil Cioran.

  opens book For ten years hast thou climbed hither unto my cave: thou wouldst have wearied of thy light and of the journey, had it not been for me, mine eagle, and my serpent. “Yeah I’ll just wait for the movie”

  Nietzsche knew you wouldn’t read it.

  To be fair, if he spoke of it, that doesn’t automatically mean it’s written down.

    Nietzsche was known as one of the illest battle rappers of his generation. He went by the name Da Eternal Übermensch. He would absolutely destroy other rappers, he even signed with Death Row Records and was in the proces of recording his debut album Thus Spit Zarathustra when he suddenly fell ill.

    Most believe Nietzsche’s illness was in part due to the beef between the West and the East coast weighing heavy on his heart. Other’s believe it was the work of Suge Knight.
