>Deleuze's political oeuvre amounts to a metaphysical liberalism.
What do you mean exactly? Not saying you're wrong, but it seems at odds with the fact that he called himself a Marxist and all that stuff about war machines and nomadic organization. And he never focused on individualism in a metaphysical sense (as you could argue that classical liberalism did) but rather on pre-individual singularities, which can be connected to collectivism just as much. Again, I'm not necessarily disagreeing with you since there was such a conceptual streak in Deleuze (power as capacity vs power as control/limitation for example), but I'm not sure what the term metaphysical liberalism means here.

It is both. Nietzsche was interested in the scientific possibilities of his idea even if ultimately the point is an ethical one (since ethics basically means behaviour rather than some universal morality).
