...To be frank, when I heard this, I thought I was an Ubermench. And not everything said was completely accurate for me, but it was overall extremely accurate.

​@@Multi1what philosophy did you came up with, and what parts didn't you agree with and why do you consider yourself an ubermensch? I created the narcisist, psychopath and empathy theory, the catperson and dog person theory, did you create any?

To be as a child is also religious...

Im so happy real philosophy is making a comeback, i mean not that he said she said nonsense but people actually philosophising themselves👍

Nazihee had bad advice.Make man a barbarian again. 2000 years of christian morality is still yet to be grasped if only men like him quit rejecting meekness and tender morality.

Most people are also idiots... And few idiots are more insidious than academics.

Unfortunately, Nietzsche never got to finish his full analysis of morality, and since his last book was a scathing critique of slave morality, many people conclude that he preferred master morality, when the next book was likely to also be a scathing critique of it.

@@ivansmirnoff6987 His sister as far as I heard was also very reactionary and edited parts of Nietzsche's last work after his death so that it fits more in line with her Ideology

"ubermansch" lol please never change! ;D Correct spelling would be Übermensch or Uebermensch I guess. But I think you are spot on.

@harz632 She wasn't reactionary. She was married to a proto fascist and later helped the Nazis to cherry pick Nietzsche's work to fit Nazi ideals.

Haha! That’s very Nietzsche!

Reminds me of the movie Rango. I think about the line "Who am i? Well, i could be anyone." Thats helped me through a lot of existential crisis and turned it into something that changed me in a way i benefit from

already seen somewhere

Thank you for the kind comment! I am passionate about bringing out some of Nietzsche’s more joyful aspects just because of how often they are skipped over

Couldn't agree more. I'm always a little dumbfounded how people bend Nietzsche to their will.

Ah that is one of the highest compliments a person could receive. Thank you so much!

A real nietzchean wouldn’t ask for Christmas presents they’d go out and steal the books and read them in prison off the book trolley when they can after they learn to read at 48. Get your ideas together.

Welcome in THE CLUB mate ! A realm you never EVER will leave . . .

Stupid ideas made by stupid ideolization prone types because they are self countious with low self esteem. Old as the world. "look I am pathetic and hate myself let's make up some idea and associate with it so I feel better about myself wohoo fun!". Jesus Christ... Its fucking pathetic...

Sigma male and true warrior have always been jokes.

The importance of suffering? So torture is the most meaningful experience in your eyes? Anyone who says it's important has never really suffered lmao. It will break you, not raise you up.

@@iirostark Only for Women ☕. Men are different.

​​​@@Based_Gigachad_001The ascetic priest is who had made tortures their daily habit. These priests are hoping to be above-all normal human by limiting something that made them joyful. Those sigma males are those ascetic priests of our times. What we need to do is not making ourselves in a habit of endless torture, but recieving those tortures to change the value of morality in the world.

Thank you so much! And I did think a lot about The Underground Man reading that part of Thus Spake Zarathustra

I agree! I saw parallels to Tales from the Underground too

raskolnikov in crime and punishment also have this idea. he wanted to be the Ubermensch but he couldn't get rid of his feelings and the old virtues judged him, he felt guilty then gave up

True, even Raskolnikov was a Nietzschean except in the end.

Ah I so want to do a video about Nietzsche and Goethe! I always think it’s a great way to bring out Nietzsche’s views on art and creativity (which I touch on a little bit here but I would love to go into more detail about)

That's right. People get this wrong all the time. They think Nietzsche idolized political power or dominating other people. In fact, he saw that as rather petty-minded. He was more concerned with overcoming previous, old, outmoded versions of the self (beliefs, values) than in dominating other people.

Dindt Goethe wrote a Poem (the Prolog of Faust 1) where he says that he is burdend by the Critique of his Work (He elaborates by saying that writing a play percived good by everyone is impossible). I might be missinterpreting the Poem, but I think that Goetthe did not fully live life on his own Terms

Diogenes. >:)

He is still wrong, allah is the only god and our purpose is to worship him

Thank you! Though I should say this is just my view and I almost certainly miss stuff out and misinterpret various aspects of his work. But your confidence is much appreciated!

​@@unsolicitedadvice9198hey can you make vedios on eastern phylospers such as Rumi. allama Iqbal I will be waiting 😊

Hitler admired Nietszche and the idea of a new secular morality free from constraints of christian concepts of good and evil. He revived Pagan symbols the most well known was the swastika of national socialism. He wanted to bring about the ubermensch. I think that is where in part nietzche gets a bad reputation.

On my understanding, the ubermensch is an individual who have a moral core that goes above and beyond what is around him - he is the one who can make (taking Western sensibilities) Christians weep in envy and scream in rage, because he prefer to be HUMAN instead of trying to be something which he is not. The most close real life approximation of it is an Atheist that helps in communitary service every week, without fault, nor slack, but he also likes to hire prostitutes for his/her pleasure but without any demeaning harmul act. I hope I was clear in my interpretation - even I sometimes fail to grasp this.

Ah thank you! And I find it difficult not to get over-enthusiastic about this sort of thing

Thank you! Happy new year to you as well!

get more rebellious. fuck 99% of the people and society, they are all soulless anyway. also you dont need to overcome any arguments, they belong to a mindset which is not desirerable. just ignor them and do your own thing.

All this hell is within you - not in society or others. Take responsibility for it, de-identify with it, and start going your own way without excuses or victim mindset. Meditation is a good way to start.

@@edheldude I despise the word excuse because everything and everyone myself included is one big excuse. It's ALWAYS an excuse. Doesn't matter what I do or don't say. It's always stfu and internalize! Stop with the self expression! How about I don't give a fuck? I reflect society back on itself. I am the product of how everyone treats me. It doesn't matter what anyone goes thru then because in the end, it'll all just be an excuse.

@@ShizaruBloodrayne Yeah. It. Does. Not. Matter. You choose your attitude and actions. Everyone has a story and difficulties. I overcame severe CPTSD and came to my own only in my 40s. Nobody cares but me, and it's all up to me to create the life I want. Nobody has to live a reactive life and play this passive-aggressive victim story in their heads. You control your destiny. The only society that exists is in your mind. It's an abstract thought and we're all individuals.

@@edheldude you haven't had much opposition from people trying to stop you from being yourself and doing what you want and taking extreme preventative measures to end up turning you on yourself, undeserving of anything, have you? The world demands more and respects less as time goes on. I give more and yet more is expected so when I pull away and get resistance, all I ever want is to get away with myself. I think it's messed up. People should care and it does matter about each other but otherwise, if money dictates the world rather than compassion, the world deserves to burn.

Thank you! Happy new year to you too!

​@@unsolicitedadvice9198absolutely

Thank you! And don’t worry, Zarathustra is really confusingly written even for Nietzsche. I had to read it twice to make heads or tails of it

Try Hagel, he is the word salad expert.

Zarathustra is famously obscure. You might try "Twilight of the Idols" or "The Anti-Christ." Those are much more straightforward.

Zarathustra is a parody. If you don’t understand what he is parodying you’re never going to understand that book. And he is doing parody in the Ancient Greek style, not whatever you currently understand parody to be.

@@Arven8 Thank you for the recommendations Arven! I guess I picked the wrong "1st book" to start with! 🤣

Thank you! You too!

i think you didn´t get it. would you rather live 1.000 lives as a unhappy peaple or 1 happy.if is you choose the 1.000 thinking you can´t enjoy one why would enjoy other. don´t think i will live one moment just do, dont do what others think you know what is made your fun.

I disagree with the lack of free will. I believe free will and the conscience/ subconscience link are directly connected. As a thing becomes more aware of what makes them tick they gain the capacity to override it and change there ways.

@@jamessssssssssssssssssssssssss Even Nietzsche agreed with this position which was clearly put by Schopenhauer: You can do what you will, but you can't will what you will. If you decide to override one impulse, thats just giving in to another impulse. Asceticism comes to mind as an example.

so really its just another unanswerable question like if god is real or the there was something before the big bang.@@luciocastro1418

Thank you!

Oh yeah there are many criticisms you can make of Nietzsche’s conception here. I don’t think his ideas are infallible, just very interesting

very interesting comment. i myself often struggled with not being a hedonist/last man because i thaught "why would i suffer?". But i wanted to get into industry/manufacturing which i accomplished with an apprenticeship. before taking that step i agonized over the potential suffering. but when i started i was so sucked into how interesting everything was that i wasnt even occupied by lifting heavy boxes and cleaning equipment. what one has to remember: us humans can enjoy almost anything that isnt turture (getting mutilated).

​@@kettenschlosd Yes you are completely right. We might think something is suffering but that is an assumption. Because beyond the suffering you can learn to have fun doing what you thought would be suffering. Which you had deemed to be suffering only to not exert your will and save energy. But once the mind and body realizes you wont die for doing this and that you actually get rewarded for doing it, then you will learn to like it and even love it. And the suffering stops. The body will always assume exerting effort will be suffering for it wants you to keep doing things that reward you. Why ever do something when you already have everythng the body needs to survive and you are having children (porn and food). So the body and mind thinks you are already doing well and that you therefore have no reason to suffer. So in the beginning when doing something new, you will always suffer for the body wants you to keep doing what it knows it gets rewarded for. So when doing something new you will suffer, however once you feel your first win the suffering becomes less and the exertion of your will is rewarded. If the will is rewarded then you will want to exert it again as to get the reward. So you will want to again try to get the reward. And then you get the reward again. Once you have gotten several rewards and the body knows how much exertion is required to reach it, you stop suffering. For now it knows it wont die and there is a reward in exerting the will, so the body will start to naturally produce dopamine in order to get you to do the work. For it has data on that the cost isnt big and the reward is great and you still live your life with food and having children. So it costs only effort and you keep everything you already wanted and gets some new reward. So you keep everything good you already have and through some effort which you now like get additional rewards for. Of course you will want to do it and love it. However that said, I studied electrical engineering for a while. And thought it was utterly boring. I knew I could make it and learn to like it if I pushed through. But I always wondered, is this really what I wanna do with my life, is this my dream? I had no clue what I wanted to do with my lfie and just picked a path. Then while having fun watching yt I saw a guy who had become a hacker and exposes pedophiles and I thought, that I can see myself doing for the rest of my life. So now I study computer science and it is the best decision I have done. I have not completed it and I like it abit but dont love it yet, but know I will love it eventually. But what I realized is that I never would have discovered this path if I hadnt thought of the other path as boring and followed fun until it lead me to a path I wanted. The problem you see with people who sacrifice themselves and work themselves to the bone is that they trap themselves in a path. They think only work is important and think their work. Problem is then that they might miss some opportunity because they didnt allow themselves to value something other than work, and in particular fun imo. Why fun? Well what does it mean to have fun. You can have fun working which was that you get rewarded for something. Which means fun rewards you for something. What rewards are possible? First we have material rewards, then rewards that are like learning new information. But really what a reward is and what new information is, what they both have in common is that you learn about how the world works. Right? For you learn that something gave you the reward. So the dopamine system is really a truth seeking system that allows you to get to know what works and what doesnt. Will my suffering/exertion of will get rewarded? If not then whatever yo are doing isnt working so stop doing it. So you learn to not do it, for you think that behaviour is a lie. Which it probably is since it didnt work. You have some falsehood about your knowledge about the world which you created an hypothesis about and then acted out to see scientifically if it was true in the world. If you got the reward it turned out to be true, if not then it turned out to be false. The problem is that failing many times people think that there isnt a path that is true, a path that will get you to your accomplishment and get you rewarded. But there always is. But they give up and never change their hypothesis, that is the sets of action the thought would lead to the reward. Like Einstein said, "It is insanity to do the same things over again and expect different results". Most people change the wrong things in their hypothesis or dont change it or dont even know what to change or maybe cannot even change it themselves so they never reach the path of truth. Of reward. Ok so back to fun, why is it important to have fun. For fun is truth. There is some truth in the thing you are doing when you have fun, doesnt mean you know what that truth is but there is one. Usually it is that you learn something or that you get the reward you were seeking after exerting your will. Football is also an intresting example, for some reason it is fun to kick a ball back and forth and score goals. You get no new information, you get no physical reward. Why is it so fun to play football then? Because the fun part is being the best. It is your will to become the overman that grows. So really what fun really is, what we like doing, is to become more competent. Right? Competent to know how the world works, competent in work so you get your physical reward, competent so that you can become the overman capable of amazing feats. And it is fun. Smiling and laughing at the fave of adversity, saying finally a worthy opponent, finally a place to prove myself, finally a place to show my competence and become more competent. Does all boil down to competence? No probably not, competence is important but that is more of a human term. But tbh it is a very good term for now so I will use it. So why is fun important, well if you do only one type of work you become competent in that area. However if you say you arnt allowed distractions then that means you sacrifice all other areas. And really there might be other fields you could develop competence in and that might improve your life more. By having fun you realize there is more to life than just the work you are doing, and if you can find the truth in the fun the you might find what your next step should be. Or by having fun you randomly let in a distraction which widened your perspective by giving you information about something. I also think about how when we were hunters, we didnt hunt all the time. OF course we needed to suffer and be in lfie death situations. But we also needed to talk to each other and have fun and hear stories. Stories could be anime for ecample, life death could be gaming, suffer could be work. However what are the stories there for? So that we can learn and not make the same mistakes and maybe shpae our life into a similar grand story which we wanna act out and achieve our dream. What is gaming for, to discover you like the life death situation and you wanna have something where your life is at stake and you save everyone, work suffering is doing the work that is needed to survive for you and your family. Which means if you only suffer then you settle for mere survival. IF you have fun you find a story or a dream that you wanna achieve. Life and death means staking your life on that dream. So you need suffering, fun and life and death to become the ubermesch. Maybe. Doesnt have to be the case but seems that way. Also is similar to Nietzsches camel lion and child. Camel suffering, child fun, lion life and death. So ye. At lkeast an intresting thought am I right? ;)

@@theseal126 thank you for typing this out. interesting that you similarly to me switched your field of competence. for me it was from psychology to surface treatment technician (electroplating). Struggling and working hard are super important, but if it is for something you dont burn for, its meaningless. psychology is immensly interesting, but i did not want to become a researcher or therapist. now slowly becomming a skilled worker in chemical engineering feels like i am becoming the best version of myself when before it seemed like trying to fit a mold that wasnt made for me. It is important to realize that people are individuals and while there are certain true things about how to live life, everyone has to ultimately go down a different path that fits them. i think this is why fun is important, because it is what we find individually enjoyable. without listening to joy, we know only how to achieve, not what. Both these questions are necessary to get anywhere.

@@kettenschlosd Yes, fun and meaningful work together is key. Also happy to see you found a path that really suited you! Have a good 2024, hope its your best year yet :D

Haha! I was wondering if people would spot that. I want to talk at some point about how Nietzsche has been interpreted by anarchist thinkers like Goldman, but I feel like it might be a bit niche.

@@unsolicitedadvice9198 I would encourage you to show us how Nietzsche was interpreted by different groups and political schools. Anarchists had a lot of influence and well the fascists also claim to have been influenced by him. But there is a group of Nietzschean Marxists who also interpreted Nietzsche in a really interesting way. There is this book called how to philosophize with a hammer and sickle by Jonas Ceka in which I highly recommend you to review it. Thanks for the great content you make
