Nietzsche is one of the few people I can say with confidence was genius

His "scientific" and metaphysical application of will to power is completely retarded. Will to power is pretty much based completely on something he made because that's just the way he felt, which is very hypocritical considering his criticisms of the systems of previous philosophers. Nietzshe's philosophy basically boils down a series of poetic concepts that create a great aesthetic experience and then fade away into insignificance.

Pretty scathing, especially when his method of critique in the first chapter of BGE is turned on himself.

the way 19th century thinkers use the word "scientific" is very different from the way we use it. nietzsche's goals didn't reside in the scientific method or in proving anything or even falsifying things. the value systems he created around will to power were, as you say, personal intuitions, and while they are supported by arguments they aren't meant to be taken dogmatically or as fact. part of the idea is that values can't be imparted in any other way, there's no proof for them

Darwin's understanding of evolution was pretty basic as well to be fair

Marx

>>8965784
Transcendence via religion can be life-affirming, but I'm not entirely sure on that. His criticisms of nationalism are wrong in the same way though, but, as with all of his criticisms, he's attacking a very specific form and character of it that leaves room for other, better opportunities and practice.

He's not wrong here. unless your conception of morality and greatness is diametrically opposed to N. anyway, at which point you shouldn't even be reading him.
