Nietzsche literally did not care about any of those things. Replace race, family, and country with humankind & culture as a whole and you would be correct. Very strange how you would come to the conclusion that's what he meant by Ubermensch. Ironic to accuse someone else of having a shallow understanding of his work.
Wrong. In fact, attempts to make Nietzsche one-dimensional amount to slave morality resentment because it tries to box him into a random "safe" moral or immoral category.
He was neither, he was very passionate and believed in the higher values of culture and the tribe, even if they were revealed at the cost of conflict and alienating many others. > Very strange how you would come to the conclusion that's what he meant by Ubermensch

Nietzsche always made it a point to highlight what is in fact one of the most obvious truths since time began: races DO NOT HAVE THE SAME WORTH. Sometimes he did this by belittling his own (he was a fierce critic of Germany) and encouraging it to be bolder, harder, tougher.
If you cling to relativistic views that all races are equal, everybody has the same worth and nations don't matter you are a literal subhuman according to Nietzsche.

> Nietzsche hated Germany
He criticized it and loved other aspects of it, which he'd like to see expressed in a type of European unit. For instance, the called Beethoven the "Exception-German", as in: the artist that exemplified Germany's most elevated aspects.
He was very precise when telling German values apart from the Germany of his time (which he found too narrowminded) and some of his German contemporaries. If anything, I'd say he expressed tough love for Germany.

Understanding what he meant by that is a litmus test: >Germany is a great nation only because its people have so much Polish blood in their veins.
He was being cheeky because his family held the belief that they descended from Polish aristocracy.
What he means is: what best encapsulates Germany is people like myself and my works. He bore a grudge against the German intelligentsia of his time since he 1st started writing; his early, strangely brutal text against David Strauss already shows that.
At the same time, keep in mind he volunteered to risk his life fighting for Germany during the Franco-Prussian war-- he became a medical assistant on the front because he was considered too physically weak to fight, but it was quite the ordeal nevertheless.

Nah, he be alluding to Socrates and Diogenes and the like, who appeared to be as mad men during a time that didn't understand them, something that Nietzsche's Zarathustra is painfully aware of.
But keep up the Christ cope reading of it, wouldn't be the first.
I'd say "seethe" would be going to far, seeing how he devoted much of his life becoming even more knowledgeable on Greek philosophy than the Bible when he was studying for the priesthood. He was overall more interested in western tradition of his era and beyond moving past its stranglehold on culture and tradition, so he critiqued them mercilessly, but not as much as the Abrahamic faiths which he saw as a slave morality devolution instead of something that managed to surpass it. It's also worth noting that, while he loathed and derided Slave Morality, he wasn't a fan of Master Morality either, but he didn't live to elaborate on his distaste of the later in as much detail. His Übermensch would have rejected/moved past both the Greeks and the disciples of Abraham.

While he never elaborated, you can intuit his opposition from his views on Germs, Poles, and israelites. He saw more virtue in the latter two's passion than the former's power. Master morality is all about defense of the status quo, not embracing change. Master morality becomes a different kind of slave morality.

Exactly. Slave Morality is simply a reactionary position towards the conservative powers that held the downtrodden masses in bondage, born of envy and lack of ability to move on. Instead of the gods of old, there arises a master god that polices its flock like a slave owner once did. But a system that creates such a damaging reaction is obviously brutish and flawed.

Nietzsche was no brute, a society which couldn't handle israelites without devolving into barbarism was obviously petty and week in his mind. Spiting his former crush and mentor Wagner most likely also played a part of his defense of israelites, as did his admiration for Napoleon. He probably would have critiqued them and their beliefs in more detail had they not been an oppressed minority group during a time when antisemitism was the default modus operandi in Europe, progroms and all.

He's assuming that the israelites themselves are not engaging in their own form of barbarism through debt enslavement and other assorted crimes and rackets.

Usery was sinful according to the church, so israelites became the caste that handled coinage and monylending as a loophole. Keeping them second class citizens shrouded in conspiracy was also convenient as it directed all of the anger at them instead of the church when things went to shit. Since the time of Napoleon and right up until World War 2 with the rise of Nationalism, the average israelite wanted nothing more than to be viewed as European first, israelite second, but conspiratorial Lutherian nonsense such as The Protocols of the Elders of Zion and lazy conservative convenience kept them from advancing beyond their tribalism, with the gas chambers as the dot that inspired the quasi-fascist state of Israel. But during Nietzsche's time, things weren't so settled, and there was still hope.

Press X to doubt before the nazis became big bad number 1 israeli intellectuals were endlessly seething about cossacks bullying them and using it as a rallying cry and bolstering their in group paranoia. Before that israeli intellectuals were talking about the inquisition, before that they were doing it with the romans, Haman etc. etc. etc. etc.
If you just believe everything the israelites tell you then you get to where we are right now. Total israeli control and look at modern America where israelites will tell you that "They want nothing more than to be American first israelites second" Yet run hundreds of israeli centered ethnic nepotism organizations and dozens of goyim policing organizations like the ADL and SPLC >but conspiratorial Lutherian nonsense such as The Protocols of the Elders of Zion

>Nepotism
When you regularly face progroms and with few avenues of advancement, it pays to keep together. israelites had to be craftier than their Christian "betters" in order to make a nice life for themselves, and that furthered envy and superstition directed at them. Which is a shame, most of the young israelites that died for Napoleon or during World War 1 did so in fervent belief that their sacrifice would finally cement them as Europeans instead of the "other". The following horrors of World War 2 though just strengthened their tribalistic attitude, so Hitler and his ilk are the ones to blame if you envy and fear their dogmatic ways. They took away the wrong lessons after the second World War, but who can blame them? In fact, they were enabled by the same tribalistic and nepotistic attitudes you can find amongst American and European Aristocracy then as you can find today.
>shadowy conspiracies.
The Protocols of the Elders of Zion is a piece of nonsense propaganda cooked up by the Okhrana in 1903 (though it's influence can be traced much further in the past), and is one of the biggest reasons israelites never managed to integrate into western society during the 20th century and up until modern times. We wouldn't even be discussing the israelites if it wasn't for idiot lunatics such as Hitler taking it seriously, thus furthering the exclusivist tribal attitudes that gave rise to Zionism and such. Heck, this isn't a problem exclusive to israelites, I mean, what is an American? That nation is entirely lacking in national identity, you are never just an American, you're an "African American", a "Redneck", a "Jew", a "WASP", an "Irish Catholic", "Asian American" etc. first, which just furthers and escalates conflict and trite tribalism.

No it isn't because
1-Nietzsche's life (much life Kafka's) was pretty eventful; people think of him as a brooding type but he was always travelling to nice places, visiting friends, going for walks and to the opera
2-the premise of Nietzsche's thought it LIFE-- the only thing that he felt couldn't be evaluated.
Nietzsche developed well-known mental issues at the end of his life, but there's not one single hint of him giving up on it. Before that, his activities and writings were always robust and life-affirming compared to, say, Schopenhauer's morose facade.

That implies a bipolarity that was never there. His life was subdued, even when he broke up with people. the Wagner thing and Lou Salome's refusal were probably the two moments that messed with his usually collected demeanor.
The illnesses he endured were not uncommon experiences back then, and the post-mental breakdown years (a little over a decade) were unrepresentative.
There's not one single shred of self-pity in his writings. Falling/stumbling and getting up again is just living life the best way you possibly can.

As for the whip quote, usual lesson worth reminding: never go light when dealing with women
It’s a reference to Ralph Waldo Emerson’s Harvard Divinity School Address, in which he says that Westerners have become so attached to past religious writings that they have lost the spirit that generated them in the first place. Thus Spoke Zarathustra is an attempt to channel that spirit into a new holy text for the world.

He was very precise when telling German values apart from the Germany of his time (which he found too narrowminded) and some of his German contemporaries. If anything, I'd say he expressed tough love for Germany.
Holy cope
Here's another concise remedial lesson for your much-needed education:
>I am perhaps more German than modern Germans
Nietzsche was a polish aristocrat
He was more like trans-Polish, there's no evidence he was Polish even several generations back.
>trans-Polish
Yes
Understanding what he meant by that is a litmus test:
>Germany is a great nation only because its people have so much Polish blood in their veins.
He was being cheeky because his family held the belief that they descended from Polish aristocracy.
What he means is: what best encapsulates Germany is people like myself and my works. He bore a grudge against the German intelligentsia of his time since he 1st started writing; his early, strangely brutal text against David Strauss already shows that.
At the same time, keep in mind he volunteered to risk his life fighting for Germany during the Franco-Prussian war-- he became a medical assistant on the front because he was considered too physically weak to fight, but it was quite the ordeal nevertheless.
What did he mean by this?
>I am a pure-blooded Polish nobleman, without a single drop of bad blood, certainly not German blood. When I look for my diametric opposite, an immeasurably shabby instinct, I always think of my mother and sister, — it would blaspheme my divinity to think I am related to this sort of canaille.
Rhetoric. That's from Ecce Homo, when his mind was starting to waver.
None of his biographers seem to have found relevant sources for his family's Polish claims.
That's precisely the opposite. Nietzsche distanced himself from Wagner because Wagner became more focused on compassion (Mitleid) etc. Neither of them were technically "wrong" but their worldviews grew apart.
You're arguing with someone over a subject that is literally beyond his capability to understand. It's a waste of both of your time but you at least should be smart enough to realize that
Wasn't he a an ethnic German who was a czechboo for some reason?
Who cares he's an autistic homosexual.
Nietzsche literally did not care about any of those things. Replace race, family, and country with humankind & culture as a whole and you would be correct. Very strange how you would come to the conclusion that's what he meant by Ubermensch. Ironic to accuse someone else of having a shallow understanding of his work.

>Kant
Literally saved the west from going full moron scientism in the 18th century with his epistemology.
>save Western civilization
No other thinker has defended Western civilization as much as Nietzsche
>Kant.
90% sure you actually meant Hegel
Nietzsche would be the one responsible for saving western civilization if people actually listened to what he said. Also:
>Kant
You're a fricking moron.
"Smart" people cannot comprehend things outside of the human experience
and (You) are dead to God.
reminder that both the people who praise this quote and those who hate it take it out of context and it means the complete opposite of what they think it means
That happens a suprising amount. Like 'blood is thicker than water'. It's supposed to be blood of the covenant is thicker than water of the womb. Maybe it's proof people that rely on catchy canned phrases to argue their points are dishonest morons.
another one is "pick yourself up from the bootstraps" which was an absurdist expression meaning "do the impossible" because it's literally impossible to pick yourself up from your bootstraps
>Zoomers reading Twitter "AKSHUALLY THIS MEANS THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT EVERYONE THINKS IT DOES THAT CONVENIENTLY FITS MY AGENDA" posts and taking them as gospel

Weird. I guess you should have read 12th century German literature so you wouldn't be shown to be a fricking moron taken in by morons who can't cite their "WELL AKSHUALLY" claims.

What shit?
Also
"God is dead and we killed him"
is satire by him.
He's mocking jaded nihilistic ass clowns with their pseudo intellectual bullshit.
spacing..

cough cough...
"god is dead and we killed him" is part of a story that is told about a ranting homeless guy who screams this out a random people like an insane jackass. Nietzche is satirizing those kind of people.
Benjamin franklin does the same thing with "these people are white only, so we need to kill everyone cut down all the trees so the venus space aliens can see how white earth is"
or a more recent example is stephen colbert doing his fake conservative thing on the daily show.
cough

It's nietzche making fun of most people in this thread in fact.

>neecha cuck

Let the breaking commence
It's satire?
I thought it was him commenting on how though society has largely abandoned religion as its driving motivator, we can still find meaning in our lives to push ourselves forwards
It's literally from "the madman". He's mocking catastrophizing psuedointellectuals.
The old version of god evolving is his actual point. That's all. Humanity will always strive to understand the universe. God, math whatever you want to call it some sort of universal force will always exist we will look for. It's just another step in mankinds thought process. so no "god is not dead" it's just god is evolving and he's just making fun of the "god is dead" jackasses. You know "sky is falling" "america is collapsing" that kind of bullshittery.
You are pretty right on. Any arguments against this would be hair splitting. Thirdies always frick up this quote then write walls of text. I hate this place.
>Source: Dude trust me
It wasn’t a satirical statement. Moreover, the commentary in your second post reads like you take way too much LSD.
He's right. It's literally a homeless street beggar ranting about how god is dead. That's satire. I think autist can't pick up sarcasm or humor in others. So they are stuck in either pure jaded sarcasm or no humor what so ever mode.
Try getting laid.
Nah, he be alluding to Socrates and Diogenes and the like, who appeared to be as mad men during a time that didn't understand them, something that Nietzsche's Zarathustra is painfully aware of.
But keep up the Christ cope reading of it, wouldn't be the first.
not him but didn’t neetch seethe to high hell at socrates and plato because they’re too religious or whatever?
They derived their knowledge from spiritual instinct. It makes him seethe and he will never be 1/10 as profound.
I'd say "seethe" would be going to far, seeing how he devoted much of his life becoming even more knowledgeable on Greek philosophy than the Bible when he was studying for the priesthood. He was overall more interested in western tradition of his era and beyond moving past its stranglehold on culture and tradition, so he critiqued them mercilessly, but not as much as the Abrahamic faiths which he saw as a slave morality devolution instead of something that managed to surpass it. It's also worth noting that, while he loathed and derided Slave Morality, he wasn't a fan of Master Morality either, but he didn't live to elaborate on his distaste of the later in as much detail. His Übermensch would have rejected/moved past both the Greeks and the disciples of Abraham.
While he never elaborated, you can intuit his opposition from his views on Germs, Poles, and israelites. He saw more virtue in the latter two's passion than the former's power. Master morality is all about defense of the status quo, not embracing change. Master morality becomes a different kind of slave morality.
Exactly. Slave Morality is simply a reactionary position towards the conservative powers that held the downtrodden masses in bondage, born of envy and lack of ability to move on. Instead of the gods of old, there arises a master god that polices its flock like a slave owner once did. But a system that creates such a damaging reaction is obviously brutish and flawed.
Nietzsche was no brute, a society which couldn't handle israelites without devolving into barbarism was obviously petty and week in his mind. Spiting his former crush and mentor Wagner most likely also played a part of his defense of israelites, as did his admiration for Napoleon. He probably would have critiqued them and their beliefs in more detail had they not been an oppressed minority group during a time when antisemitism was the default modus operandi in Europe, progroms and all.
>a society which couldn't handle israelites without devolving into barbarism was obviously petty and week in his mind.
He's assuming that the israelites themselves are not engaging in their own form of barbarism through debt enslavement and other assorted crimes and rackets. The problem with this guy is that he's clearly anti german so he cannot possibly even consider any argument against israelites. "it must be the germans fault!!!" is his default assumption and the only position he is willing to consider.
Usery was sinful according to the church, so israelites became the caste that handled coinage and monylending as a loophole. Keeping them second class citizens shrouded in conspiracy was also convenient as it directed all of the anger at them instead of the church when things went to shit. Since the time of Napoleon and right up until World War 2 with the rise of Nationalism, the average israelite wanted nothing more than to be viewed as European first, israelite second, but conspiratorial Lutherian nonsense such as The Protocols of the Elders of Zion and lazy conservative convenience kept them from advancing beyond their tribalism, with the gas chambers as the dot that inspired the quasi-fascist state of Israel. But during Nietzsche's time, things weren't so settled, and there was still hope.
>Usery was sinful according to the church,
Not in Nietzches period and not for a couple hundred years before Nietzches.
>the average israelite wanted nothing more than to be viewed as European first, israelite second,
Press X to doubt before the nazis became big bad number 1 israeli intellectuals were endlessly seething about cossacks bullying them and using it as a rallying cry and bolstering their in group paranoia. Before that israeli intellectuals were talking about the inquisition, before that they were doing it with the romans, Haman etc. etc. etc. etc.
If you just believe everything the israelites tell you then you get to where we are right now. Total israeli control and look at modern America where israelites will tell you that "They want nothing more than to be American first israelites second" Yet run hundreds of israeli centered ethnic nepotism organizations and dozens of goyim policing organizations like the ADL and SPLC
>but conspiratorial Lutherian nonsense such as The Protocols of the Elders of Zion
Good to know that even israelites engage in and are ultimately motivated by schizo rambling about shadowy conspiracies.
>Not in Nietzches period and not for a couple hundred years before Nietzches.
Yet sentiments lingered and israelites kept to what they knew out of necessity.
>Nepotism
When you regularly face progroms and with few avenues of advancement, it pays to keep together. israelites had to be craftier than their Christian "betters" in order to make a nice life for themselves, and that furthered envy and superstition directed at them. Which is a shame, most of the young israelites that died for Napoleon or during World War 1 did so in fervent belief that their sacrifice would finally cement them as Europeans instead of the "other". The following horrors of World War 2 though just strengthened their tribalistic attitude, so Hitler and his ilk are the ones to blame if you envy and fear their dogmatic ways. They took away the wrong lessons after the second World War, but who can blame them? In fact, they were enabled by the same tribalistic and nepotistic attitudes you can find amongst American and European Aristocracy then as you can find today.
>shadowy conspiracies.
The Protocols of the Elders of Zion is a piece of nonsense propaganda cooked up by the Okhrana in 1903 (though it's influence can be traced much further in the past), and is one of the biggest reasons israelites never managed to integrate into western society during the 20th century and up until modern times. We wouldn't even be discussing the israelites if it wasn't for idiot lunatics such as Hitler taking it seriously, thus furthering the exclusivist tribal attitudes that gave rise to Zionism and such. Heck, this isn't a problem exclusive to israelites, I mean, what is an American? That nation is entirely lacking in national identity, you are never just an American, you're an "African American", a "Redneck", a "Jew", a "WASP", an "Irish Catholic", "Asian American" etc. first, which just furthers and escalates conflict and trite tribalism.

Anti israeliness is stupidity
>When a people is suffering from nationalistic nervous fever and political ambition and wants to suffer, we have to accept the fact that various kinds of clouds and disturbances - in short, small attacks of dullness - will pass over its spirit: for example, among contemporary Germans sometimes the anti-French stupidity, sometimes the anti-israeli,
European nations are made up and unreal
>What we nowadays call a "nation" in Europe is essentially more a res facta [something made] than a res nata [something born] (indeed sometimes it looks confusingly like a res ficta et picta [something made up and unreal]- ), in any case something developing, young, easily adjusted, not yet a race, to say nothing of aere perennius [more enduring than bronze], as is the israeli type.
There is no israeli conspiracy to take over Europe
>That the israelites, if they wanted to - or if people were to force them, as the anti-Semites seem to want to do - could even now become predominant, in fact, quite literally gain mastery over Europe, is certain; that they are not working and planning for that is equally certain
Let israelites into your country or you are weak
>"Let no more israelites in! And especially bar the doors to the east (also to Austria)!" So orders the instinct of a people whose type is still weak and uncertain, so that it could be easily erased, easily dissolved away by a stronger race. But the israelites are without any doubt the strongest, most tenacious, and purest race now living in Europe
Let israelites join your aristocracy like the British
>We should comply with all caution, and selectively, more or less the way the English aristocracy does it. It's clear that the stronger and already firmly established type of the new Germanism could involve itself with them with the least objection, for example, the aristocratic officers from the Mark [of Brandenburg]
>guy gets mad at christians
>loves israelites
hmmm...
Whenever I read this homosexuals work all you can do is just ask "Why?" Everything this guy says raises more questions to the author than he could answer. Then he just says a whole bunch of anecdotal shit and uses it as hard evidence for his cases when I never observe any of the shit he espouses in my own anecdotal encounters.
>be easily erased, easily dissolved away by a stronger race. But the israelites are without any doubt the strongest, most tenacious, and purest race now living in Europe
God he tried so hard to larp as a Polish israeli it just got ridiculous after awhile. He was an extremely depressed, mentally ill man who hated himself and engaged in etc xenophilia all of the time.
>I break off my cheerful Germanomania [Deutschthümelei] and speech of celebration. For I'm already touching on something serious to me, on the "European problem," as I understand it, on the breeding of a new ruling caste for Europe.
Look how psychotic this guy is. He's literally a white genocide poster. Then you know one day FOR NO REASON AT ALL german people threw people like him in a camp.
There isn't one single passage in Nietzsche (that I know) that is defeatist-- he looked at life from the Amor Fati perspective
It's a literal coping mechanism, he wrote what he wanted to be without ever really being it. As he got older the larp became sadder and sadder. The actual biography of the man reveals him just being a broken , dying man by the time of 45
Whenever I try reading Nietzsche I get the impression of some Jordan Peterson fan before his time. Some guy with severe self-esteem and anxiety problems. Maybe I'll have to give him another shot.
That was what he was, I say it as a fan. His style was intended to be accessible and passionate. He was the link between philosophy and self-help. Appreciate that within its own context, rather than projecting cringe from today onto him.
Also, Stirner is funnier.
No it isn't because
1-Nietzsche's life (much life Kafka's) was pretty eventful; people think of him as a brooding type but he was always travelling to nice places, visiting friends, going for walks and to the opera
2-the premise of Nietzsche's thought it LIFE-- the only thing that he felt couldn't be evaluated.
Nietzsche developed well-known mental issues at the end of his life, but there's not one single hint of him giving up on it. Before that, his activities and writings were always robust and life-affirming compared to, say, Schopenhauer's morose facade.
>was pretty eventful;
He polarized often between highs and lows in life that ended up killing him, his life was extremely chaotic and tragic. His writings don't genuinely reflect his attitudes considering we absolutely know he spiralled out of control several times in life due to physical and mental illness and would sink into despair. His sister actually tried to help him a lot through his life
Then he would pick himself up and get some ambition and hope again. In the end though he just completely broke.
That implies a bipolarity that was never there. His life was subdued, even when he broke up with people. the Wagner thing and Lou Salome's refusal were probably the two moments that messed with his usually collected demeanor.
The illnesses he endured were not uncommon experiences back then, and the post-mental breakdown years (a little over a decade) were unrepresentative.
There's not one single shred of self-pity in his writings. Falling/stumbling and getting up again is just living life the best way you possibly can.
He was a bipolar female. Probably would have had a tumblr if he was alive today.
Going to tumblr? Forget not thy whip
Nietzsche was into BDSM? I bet he was a bottom like Sade.
He didn't take himself too seriously and knew how to be casual and playful. There's a pic of him and another guy as horses pulling a cart w/ Lou Salome pretending to whip them.
As for the whip quote, usual lesson worth reminding: never go light when dealing with women
How the frick did you read Thus Spake Zarathustra as satire?
It’s a reference to Ralph Waldo Emerson’s Harvard Divinity School Address, in which he says that Westerners have become so attached to past religious writings that they have lost the spirit that generated them in the first place. Thus Spoke Zarathustra is an attempt to channel that spirit into a new holy text for the world.
I have no idea what you're referring to but I assure you, you are... Le virgin loser.
Fricking couldn't just scroll past this gay shit. Why don't you take a lead aspirin, Meme Commander?
Hey Eggers if you’re here make a Zarathustra film adaptation
