32:03 Third Essay
On the Genealogy of Morals is considered by many to be Nietzsche's masterpiece. It certainly is one of the more accessible works, as it (largely) lacks the poetry and allegory of Thus Spoke Zarathustra and is not as aphoristic as Beyond Good and Evil. On the Genealogy of Morals consists of three essays which will be tackled each in their own, separate video. The introductory part of the video aims to provide a solid understanding by first asking the question: "What exactly is Nietzsche's genealogical method?" and situating the relevance of the Genealogy in the bigger Nietzschean corpus (namely: the transvaluation of all values and setting humanity up for a philosophy and morality of the future.)
The second part tackles the first essay of Nietzsche's On the Genealogy of Morals. Much of it will sound familiar to those who have read Beyond Good and Evil or Daybreak. Nietzsche makes a historical-genealogical (even linguistic) case for the good/bad and good/evil dichotomy.
In the third part, we see Nietzsche dive deep into prehistory towards the creation of a morality of custom which leads to man's instinct for cruelty being repressed, and finally, turn inwards.
The bad conscience, in this analysis of Nietzsche, is not "the voice of God" as Kant and Christianity claim. Rather, the bad conscience is the paradoxical self-torture and self-pleasure that results from a drive for cruelty which cannot be directed externally and therefore must wreck havoc internally.
This is a notoriously difficult essay and it has been somewhat overlooked as a result. With this video, we hope to do it justice.
In the fourth and final part, we arrive at the grand conclusion. Nietzsche explores the question: "What do ascetic ideals mean?" Throughout history and throughout different types of men: the artist (Wagner), the philosopher (Schopenhauer), the aesthete (Kant) but most importantly, the priest (Christianity) and the scholar (scientists like Darwin and Copernicus). Nietzsche will argue that a Will to Nothingness underpins the ascetic ideal: it gives meaning to our suffering. Because, as Nietzsche said it at the start: Man would sooner will nothingness, than not will at all.

The whole world is busy with Nietzsche at the moment. It is because he has spoken truthfully. I read all his works in German a few decades ago and want to thank you the excellent job you did here. It is extremely difficult to summarize the content of his major works in a proper language. The verbal presentation besides the thoughtful selection of quotes is excellent, good English . right speed and pronunciation and the right visuals at the right moment. As a painter I am concerned finding the right facial and bodily expressions that evocative of Nietzsches Weltgeist.

I believe Freud later call this will to nothingness “The Death Drive”. It’s very interesting to consider that a living creature, the very soul of which is constituted of the thirst for life could desire death. I think Nietzsche is right in designating the source of this drive as frustrated impulses, namely our desire for cruelty. Which is a startling realization. Think of all the cruelty in human history and then consider how little there is today, at least in the west. If you accept as an axiom that we all have cruel impulses, where has all that cruelty gone? Inward, towards ourselves, we treat others with indulgence while lacerating ourselves in a thousand small ways. I believe with this in mind it’s not so perplexing when we consider all the small and large ways we sabotage ourselves.

Even apes and monkeys have moral behaviour and expel those that do not conform to it. How could humans - evolving or created beyond such animals - not already have this attribute? What Nietzsche was eluding to was virtue. The ability not to break these moral constraints to remain among the group. Example: you are hungry and can steal a loaf of bread; if caught sent to prison but if successful you eat. A noble person would rather starve. That is virtuous and typically sat with richer members of society who could afford to hold such values to the bitter end (rarely would this be tested: whereas the poorest of society had to face this decision on a daily basis). 'Our daily bread!' -- is a prayer!

Damn this is so profound. Thankyou so much for putting this together, because I'm way too lazy to read through it myself. I'm actually scared to pick up Nietzche's books because I know it will take me so long to decipher, and his riddle will consume me because I'm burdened (and blessed) with the trait of obsessiveness. This provides a perfect baseline for me to now read his work and have an easier time understanding it. His ideas are beyond profound, its actually ineffable. How he managed to develop these hypotheses and reach these conclusions is beyond me, it's other worldly. It also resonates with me greatly because I feel a lot of his ideas intuitively but I've never even been close to articulating or even comprehending them myself. For one, I've always considered the ascetic ideal as pure torture. It strips my life of meaning and actually makes me wish I was dead. I find it interesting how so many people find pleasure in ascetic disciplines. All I yearn for is to be free and forge my own destiny, but I still haven't found it. One of my favourite lines from another genius cypher: Aesop Rock hits hard for me - "All I ever wanted was to pick apart the day, put the pieces back together my way"... This is what I wish for... This is what I see as _true_ meaning in life. Nietzche's words have answered a lot of questions for me and maybe he can take me one step closer to finding that true, pure unadulterated freedom I seek. The fact that he posits this quest for a new form of meaning which is less painful and free from the constraints of aceticism as a _challenge_ is all too true, because he can't answer that. Only I, as my own self can find that answer. The search for this answer will be what gives my life meaning, and even if I never find it, I'll consider that a life well lived. I'll take that any day over a rigorous pursuit for some masochistic discipline, I can't think of anything worse than living in an internalised self made prison. I'll take death over that. Why should life be made more painful than it already is? Why do we allow our resent and guilt to bring more pain for ourselves and the people around us? Yes, the grass actually is greener, and there's a better place out there. We just need to keep searching.

Quite the opposite. Nietzsche said, Asceticism actually brings pleasure. Not "torture to an already cruel world", like you described. People who feel sad about losing in the world, tricking themselves that they're actually winning the next world. Great philosophy and coping mechanism for those, who are hopeless, or as Nietzsche would say: morality of slaves.

@catatafish22 11 ай бұрын

@@qbek_san no that’s what I said. I never said Nietzsche said it… *for me* I believe pure asceticism brings torture to life, and a Nietzsche posits an answer to this with his alternate perspective. I’m just saying his criticism of asceticism has inspired me to look for a better meaning in life, one which is free from the constraints of asceticism which a lot of people believe is the key to a meaningful life

This video is very well done. I personally can only come to agree with Nietzche if I contextualize man as lacking self-awareness, and many people do largely lack that much of the time. With a developed ability to de-contextualize the entire subjective experience, enmity, joy, pain, pleasure all become of the same "stuff." And entire schools of philosophical thought become obsolete. It seems like his ideas only work when operating directly from a superficial sense of identity.

I think that Nietzsche either did not fully understand science or that science has changed somewhat since his time. Science is not actually a search for some ultimate "truth". Science, as it is practiced today, is rather a search for models that work well enough to allow accurate predictions and thus allow us to use them to further technological progress. "Science" is not under the illusion that it is perfect or that it can achieve a perfect understanding of reality. Science is a process that keeps trying to make better and better models. In many cases, it is understood that these models can be interpreted in many ways and that determining which of these interpretations is the closest representation of "the truth" of reality will be, quite possibly, an impossible quest at best, or, at worst, just a game to play while working to find even more useful models.

“In northwest Alaska, kunlangeta "might be applied to a man who, for example, repeatedly lies and cheats and steals things and does not go hunting, and, when the other men are out of the village, takes sexual advantage of many women." The Inuits tacitly assume that kunlangeta is irremediable. And so, according to Murphy, the traditional Inuit approach to such a man was to insist he go hunting, and then, in the absence of witnesses, push him off the edge of the ice.” ― Martha Stout, The Sociopath Next Door

Is it not the case that a scientist's belief that truth > falsehood comes from that desire for power and self preservation, not an unconscious metaphysical assumption? For example, most scientists are motivated to say truth > falsehood because truths can be used to manipulate the world to our ends. There is also the motivation for prestige within the scientific community, which could be seen as a form of power.

I believe the frequent Buddhist / Vedic iconography in this video during discussions of is out of place, given that the entire genealogy is, as mentioned in the beginning of this video, centered on Western European thought with an obvious central focus on Christianity. I understand he has mentioned “eastern” religions where asceticism is also practiced, but this clearly is not the central thrust of his argument, and moreover, I would imagine that he had very little real insight into these beliefs and practices.

So... would it be correct to assert (in response to the cliffhanger ending!!!) that Neitchze's answer to the question-- ("What then shall I will for?") -- Be, his beloved: *AMOR FATI*? Nietzsche's conclusion was that humanity needed to find some meaning behind suffering, and so we created: -Asceticism (move towards pain) -Denial of reality (it's only a dream) -Scientism (it's because you're an animal) -Religion (live for tomorrow) -Nihlism (go f$#k your meaning) And, I am pondering if his answer was Amor Fati. To love reality/life, not as it "should" be, but as it is in actuality...

Cogent, unique analysis of Nietzsche, savant philosopher, the deservedly self-described "..philosopher for the day after tomorrow." Nietzsche attacked the descendent Western effete values, the loaded scales of devious shop keepers masquerading as balanced, measured Socratic arbiters of value and authenticity. Nietzsche achieved this attack with Navy Seal military precision in his front sight focused sniper rifle critique in BGE and TOI, as well as his overall force multiplier outlined in WTP carried out with mountain lightning speed high up in his Olympian perch of the Swiss Alps. Ralph Waldo Emerson may have been Nietzsche's only contemporary equal, a fellow brother in arm across time and space, in the fight to restore instinct and military-like valor for courageous men of the future. Future Nietzschean trailblazers will instinctively long for new horizons, and seek the leading edge of potential in their relentless forward drive to probe the will to power, in all its outer and inner quest manifestations, questioning forever the will to power's ultimate chess-like "end game" and its big why??? in pulsating the energy and Emersonian "immense intelligence" infused in the world drama and vibrational songline of the universe. Thank you for sharing your compelling video with Nietzsche aficionados across the world.
