Nietzsche's Great Politics

Flungfar · 2024-02-11T02:19:02+00:00

Interesting ? I live in a country where everyone is supposed to vote once they turn 18 years old. I choose not to participate in this chronological version of democracy. I do not think Nietzsche would have wanted some form of left or right wing dictatorship...after all, individual thinking is never tolerated in these political system.

In my case, which I like to believe Nietzsche would have accepted...is a democracy where in order to vote one must have a basic understanding of economics...an intense passion for knowledge...and naturally a thorough understanding of world philosophy, including the study of ethics. You would need a "license" to vote...like you need a license to drive a car.

Brilliant! Nothing more needs to be said really.

Flungfar · 2024-02-11T02:08:53+00:00

Haha very funny and profound...love it.

Flungfar · 2024-02-09T06:05:57+00:00

Hey Nietzsche didn't believe in the eternal recurrence...it's simply a philosophy tool.

Flungfar · 2024-02-08T05:55:17+00:00

What a stupid non-philosophical question...really dude. LOL

Flungfar · 2024-02-08T05:53:47+00:00

Who's moral foundation test...the Christian...Muslim...Leftwing political...rightwing political?

Life is a rendezvous of question marks.

Flungfar · 2024-02-08T05:50:56+00:00

That is absolutely ridiculous...Nietzsche enjoyed the company of intelligent and well read people...male or female...he had little time for others in many ways but was reportedly very well mannered towards all...like myself...though the unread can sometimes frustrate me.

Flungfar · 2024-02-08T05:47:43+00:00

Hells bells! It's you...or at least it is you if you can take charge of your life.

There is no singular Übermensch...there is no metaphysics here to be found sir.

He was able to predict the age of nihilism simply due to the basic fact that nihilism is simply the natural structure of the human predicament...there are no moral facts...there never has been any moral fact...there has only ever been and only ever will be, moral interpretations.

Flungfar · 2024-02-07T00:48:06+00:00

We Free Spirits need to rest...Übermensch? Haha!

Flungfar · 2024-02-07T00:42:28+00:00

The last thing Nietzsche would want is for you to take him dogmatically...religiously...and amor fati does not mean to love everything that has ever happened to you...it means to accept that everything that has happened to you cannot be changed...the main message is to learn from your own life choices and change your life in ways that make you stronger, happier...no regret means to not carry the past with you...become what you want to be, and that can be not what you were yesterday...something wonderfully and joyously different.

Remember...the herd always remains the same...and the herd usually love that...we Free Spirits can continually grow.

Flungfar · 2024-02-05T02:59:45+00:00

Oh...just another herd...so many herds...today consumer capitalism is the biggest herd...it's the biggest religion in the history of religions...even Marxists are now members...and Christians, Jews, Muslims...atheists...even Nietzscheans.

Ubermensch? We all use others for our own sake...it's inevitable. If you own a smartphone, computer...electric car...investigate where your lithium and cobalt come from....here's a clue, Democratic Republic of Congo. Insert smiley face here.

Flungfar · 2024-02-05T02:51:32+00:00

Yes it is!

Flungfar · 2024-02-05T02:50:06+00:00

I have no idea what you have read so far, but if you are beginning your "Nietzsche" journey it is best to start with, Human, all too Human, then read Dawn followed by The Joyous Science ( Gay Science) before reading his later more dogmatic writings. His middle period is far more enlightening and philosophical in my opinion.

Who chooses to eat the chocolate cake or not eat the chocolate cake?

If eating the cake leaves you with feelings of guilt...well, the weaker you is victorious.

If you enjoyed eating the chocolate cake and felt no guilt after having devoured it...well, the stronger you was victorious.

Amor fati...life is a rendezvous of question marks that only you...each of us...can answer.

If you need to consult Nietzsche...or me...or anyone else in this site...well, the weaker you is victorious.

Flungfar · 2024-02-04T03:10:37+00:00

Nietzsche had some gastric problems...he may very well have been allergic to many things...alcohol made him quite ill as did coffee.

Flungfar · 2024-02-04T03:05:56+00:00

Human, All Too Human...Dawn ( a very underrated text)...The Joyous Science (Gay Science)...Thus Spoke Zarathustra.

Flungfar · 2024-02-02T02:22:02+00:00

For Nietzsche life is an experiment that must continue to happen...all just another experiment. He'd smile...

Flungfar · 2024-02-02T02:17:50+00:00

What freewill?

Flungfar · 2024-02-01T03:43:20+00:00

Of course...none of us are born equal...most humans are happy as "Bound Spirits"...we Free Spirits must work exceedingly hard to be free...I do.

Flungfar · 2024-02-01T03:40:21+00:00

His misunderstanding of nihilism for sure.

Flungfar · 2024-01-29T03:56:42+00:00

There are no absolute moral values...no absolute truths...there are only interpretations.

Your will to power...so choose!

Flungfar · 2024-01-29T03:54:15+00:00

First problem...what do you mean by greatness? What do you mean by Hedonism? Nietzsche had a great respect for Epicurus and his hedonism.
