>Rome cannot be reduced to its organisational power, its instincts and the conflict of physical forces. This is entirely a secular view, reducing the martial state to its technical concerns alone. It is significant that no modern states feel threatened by Nietzsche's philosophy but instead employ many of its elements. Whereas someone like Schmitt, who followed Tocqueville rather than Nietzsche, threatens the very core of the democratic state - not just liberal - through his calm presence before the law, his mastery which was capable of acting from within.

what would´ve Neetszche think of the 20th century? he died 14 years before WW1

the question should be.... WHY the fuck a Nietszche figure didn´t appear before the 19th century in the West?, what did it take so long?

Spengler has german biased and clouted by nationalism, he never even credited the French, Italians or Greeks for the contributions of European Culture, no, for some reason Germany created Western Civ, Spengler´s ancestor were mud hut dwellers and his grandsons will also become mud hut dwellers (but with brown skin this time)

i want to read him but i´m still with the greeks, his thinking is like magnet which i can´t avoid

What was Nietszche´s thinking in relation to shy and introverted people? did he had some sort of opinion on them? relating to that question....

...How could shy and introverted people learn from Nietszche´s writings?

i can understand why Nietzsche wanted enemies, i personally had enemies all throughout my life, but because of it (although it pains me to admit), it made me the person i am today

Horseflies trying to eat my skin deserve to be squashed. No amount of Buddhist copes and moralfagging can change this fact.

>Today, everybody's so bitter, calling anyone who is fortunate enough to have had a good upbringing "privileged". Privilege is now an insult, used with the intent to make people feel bad for having an advantage.

lol my psychologist did that the last session we had, i was arguing about i´m always at disadvantage in social situations because i have anxiety and i don´t like normies and she made a big fuss about me not being the only one with stuggles in life and that i come from a privilege background and that there are many people who suffer because they have to work their ass off and such and such


i mean she´s a moron for comparing my social troubles with financial troubles, it´s like comparing apples and oranges, mere subjectivity which is worse so there´s no reason for comparing each other, that´s why i don´t like about women, they get so emotional about these things lmao

Although he was proficient in the arts and the sciences, his contribution to the field of science was null. I would go as far as saying that studying science was merely a hobby for Goethe.

The universe is deterministic. You had to do as you did to know what you know as regards the aforementioned. Knowing such, step forward. Most likely you will stumble yet.
