This video is the closest I'll ever come to understanding Nietzsche and I studied philosophy in Germany.

Allow me to simplify it further:

Do or do not, but stop hogging the cocaine.

(The priest class as a bimbofied ubermensch is actually a pretty genius comparison imo)

I don't think anyone has actually read Nietzsche

I'll have you know I bought an English copy of Thus Spoke Zarathustra, and read almost the entire first dozen pages. Twice!

I actually read some very recently because I heard that the recent PhilosophyTube had a bunch of bad takes. He's actually far more fun to read than I realised

I couldn’t tell you much beyond this since it was boring and I don’t remember but: “God is dead” was not emo edgy bullshit but rather an observation that society as a whole was growing more secular, to way over-generalize the context.

Ecce Homo is... interesting. Quoting Tears for Fear:

And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad

It's one of his last books and it's obvious his eccentricity is bordering madness already. It contains chapters like "Why I Am So Wise", "Why I Am So Clever", "Why I Write Such Good Books", and "Why I Am a Destiny". Some scholars say it's a provocative or sardonic way of presenting an autobiography; I wouldn't be so sure.

I read Thus Spoke Zarathustra when I went through a phase of reading "classical" philosophy books. I remember liking it, though I don't remember much of it anymore.

That's pretty wholesome, they managed to find some common ground.

Yeah, I love this dissolution into honesty from them both!

That or there's some wild context we're missing.

Internet arguments if people were actually being honest

[-] Floopquist@lemmy.org 14 points 4 days ago

Classic bot conversation?

Sure but Albert Einstein disagreed with it.
