This is the third part of a four part video presentation of Dr. Stephen Hicks' book, Nietzsche and the Nazis. The focus in this part is on the ideas of Friedrich Nietzsche.
Adolf Hitler and the Nazis claimed that the 19th century German philosopher, Friedrich Nietzsche(1844-1900), was one of their inspirations. Were they right to do so?
This video investigates the thought of Friedrich Nietzsche as well as the political ideas of the Nazi Party. To what extent did Nietzsche's philosophy provide a foundation for the horrors perpetrated by the Nazis?

Imho, I like the older Hicks more. He's gotten more refined over the years, and while I do appreciate the work the young Hicks did here, I think that the intellectual taste and the personality of Hicks has only gotten more sublime over the years. As my mother used to say: he has aged gracefully. This being said: Well done! This has been a very valuable and enjoyable piece of art!

Very insightful commentary. I wish my university professors had been this compelling. Thank you.

No biggie, but I just noticed how young Stephen Hicks is in this video despite it being posted just a few weeks ago. I guess the video had been floating around for quite a while.

Was it a coincidence or destiny that the thinker man lost his mind in the abyss

Id love to hear a good Christian or Jewish response to these arguments but I've never found one, if anyone has any suggestions I'd be very grateful thank you.

Check out Joseph Henrich's work on the influence of christianity on european culture, he is an atheist just like Nietzsche but his views on christianity are radically different

As an aside, did you know that the books that were being burnt in the 1930s were of transgender ideology, as well as other socially corrosive and subversive topics, (written by authors of a particular religious disposition which shall not be named).?

Oh yeah, Albert Einstein, known for his 'corrosive and subversive' topics. They burnt books that didn't conform to Nazi ideology and/or were written by Jews.

Christopher Isherwood was not Jewish. Isherwood's tales about Sally Bowles and her acquaintances became the basis for John Van Druten's play I Am a Camera (1951; film, 1955). Fred Ebb and John Kander turned this material into the much-acclaimed stage musical Cabaret (1966; film, 1972).

Magnus Hirschfeld (14 May 1868 - 14 May 1935) was a Jewish German physician and sexologist, whose citizenship was later revoked by the Nazi government. Hirschfeld was educated in philosophy, philology and medicine. An outspoken advocate for sexual minorities, Hirschfeld founded the Scientific-Humanitarian Committee and World League for Sexual Reform.
