I'm just finishing Beyond Good and Evil.

It's terrible. Nietzsche's writing style is quirky as fuck; you can just imagine him fidgeting, blurting out, pre-emptively bouncing off the walls of the Basel Mental Asylum where he would later stay until his death. That said, it might be the translator's fault.

He had a couple of good ideas, nothing mind-blowing though. The actual ideas he's championed for (Übermensch, morality that is 'beyond Good and Evil', etc) are terrible.

I could imagine a good debate about just 'who' his prophesied 'New Philosophers' are (hopefully not those Post-Modernist/Structuralist hacks), or if they've even appeared yet, but that's about it.

Schopenhauer was better. Hoping to de-spook myself with Max.

He somehow managed to break the 4th wall with his questions, which is funny as that's what he's doing by definition.

Nietzsche had one good idea: predicted nihilism to the masses

We solved it with materialism/consumerism, so it's no biggy!

Nha, that's exactly the "last men's nihilism": only caring for comfort and happiness
