There is no call to action in Nietzsches work, he didnt want the average normie to suddenly "create his own values", matter of fact he thought that the fundemental nature of people was relatively unchangable. The herdsman and the last man were according to Nietzsche stuck in their predicament, hence their failure to listen to Zarathustras warnings. Transvaluation was something that only the Overman could do, and the overman wasnt something someone "became" but something new born in the future entirely.
This whole "create your own values" is american pop philosophy that is found in comics and emraced by hedonists. Dont listen to these retards and read Nietzsche yourself.

Nietzsche's "solution" of creating your own values is still meaningless if you cannot transcend a supposedly meaningless world. So true meaning must come from elsewhere. The only true solution is to identify with God and be at peace, all other things are merely temporary tricks. Practicing Nietzschean philosophy in the form of strengthening your ego and dividing yourself against the rest of the world will only harm you, which is why nearly all of his disciples are basically crazy retards for various reasons.

She's actually still full of youthful vitality and always ready to enjoy herself at the expenses of conventional morality, financial restraints and worries about the future.

My view didn't change, only the wording of it, because you don't get it and are nitpicking over inane shit not even related to what I'm saying. What I meant by my original distinction was that "the Nazis" is a strawman created by the press / media and what they were really doing wasn't a misappropriation of his ideas at all, but the closest anyone's ever gotten to trying to realize his ideas in a manageable political system.

What do you think they were doing and which of his ideas do you think they were misappropriating? I'm sure your answer to these questions will confirm what I just asserted above. It's already been said what was misappropriated of him from the rest, but you haven't said this at all for the Nazis.

You clearly haven't read enough Nietzsche. When talking about anti-semites he said he found their anti-semitism and their resentfulness stupid, but that if they were doing it merely to get the Jews' wealth for themselves, then it was merely common greed, something he could actually respect (iirc he says that in Genealogy of Morals). Having "zero concept of god" or following base instincts wasn't necessarily a bad thing in his book, though it wasn't necessarily the best.

The dionysian life has little to do with theurgy in the neoplatonic sense. It's a particular form of exertion of will, it's less about belief and knowledge and more about vitality and relationship to impulses. Less thinking can actually do you good according to Nietzsche's view.

The Nazis were pretty much real (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazism)) and Hitler wasn't the only one. Are you seriously arguing that the Nazis were a "strawman created by the press / media" but your "postmodernists" are absolutely real? You're beyond delusional. Also, Nietzsche's sister (who was a member of the literal Nazi Party) perverted his posthumous publications in order so they could fit Nazism, and then many other Nazis had incorrectly followed such views by the time she died. They LITERALLY misappropiated Nietzsche in the most fundamental way possible.

>mistaking the planners-bureacrats of the Nazi regime for the new aristocracy, when Nietzsche's conception of aristocracy was much closer to the French moralist of the XVIIth century

It goes on and on. All the above is either misappropriation of Nietzsche or blatantly contradictory with his thought (and a lot of it is more Heideggerian is a loose sense). The very ideas of "realizing his ideas in a manageable political system" runs counter to the fundamental impulse of Nietzsche's philosophy. If the Nazis had raped his corpse they would not have done much worse.
There is no real philosophical basis for Nazism, at best it's a mix of cherry-picked and badly used nietzscheism plus bogged down heideggerianism plus misunderstood Fichte and a quite a few borrowings from Mussolini.

Yeah, because we actually have the writings of those people to confirm they were full of shit. Have you read Derrida, Lyotard, Baudrillard, Rorty? Or Marxists like Benjamin and Adorno, who were desperate to undermine Nietzsche however they could. Meanwhile, everyone talks out of their ass about the Nazis all the damn time. Like you, who didn't answer my questions.

>Also, Nietzsche's sister (who was a member of the literal Nazi Party) perverted his posthumous publications in order so they could fit Nazism, and then many other Nazis had incorrectly followed such views by the time she died.
This has long since been taken care of. You sound as if you haven't read the man yourself. He wrote, all the time, passages which coherently tie into what the Nazis were planning and doing, none of which support anything the Marxists or the postmodernists tried doing. And I hope I don't have to provide any explanation regarding how neo-Christians and anarchists (who Nietzsche explicitly states are ideologically related) misappropriate him.

absolutely unconcerned with your idea that i haven't read enough Nietzsche, I'm here to say that he's wrong in his analysis, and in the fruit that his philosophical tree has started to bear. I'm not interested in winning an argument within his framework either, I've seen for myself that there is much more to be understood

meanwhile, as far as your actual argument is concerned, even Nietzsche argued that the supposed duality of Dionysus and Apollo needs to be mediated between each other. there isn't anything wrong with having fun, but distortion whole excessive love of the Dionysian on this board in particular is just Satanism for people that are too smart for Satanism. also, meaninglessness of the world is not just a psychological thing, it is more of a metaphysical position. the only point that I'm trying to make is that Nietzsche disregarded that there is a world to be transcended, while better philosophies don't

Again, being a successful leader means putting on a good show for the people. Your failure to understand this is precisely why you point these things out as somehow an indication that they (as in Hitler, their head) were misappropriating Nietzsche. If you wanted to show that they were you'd have to point to what their long term plans were, not their propaganda during wartime. You could focus on such details for men like Borgia and Napoleon, who Nietzsche highly esteemed, and make the same case that they were contradictory to what Nietzsche thought, which should tell you that the process by which you're going about this is wrong.

>which coherently tie into what the Nazis were planning and doing, none of which support anything the Marxists or the postmodernists tried doing.

You'll need a wealth of citations on that. The philosophical heirs of Nietzsche are the "postmodernists" (among others), while the Nazis are the philosophical heirs of nobody. And why do you even mention Adorno? He's a post-Hegelian, he's answering to Hegel and Marx and the greater project of the Enlightenment, not to Nietzsche. He's completely irrelevant here.

>>13778329
We're in a Nietzsche thread, obviously when we're talking about the Dionysian it's implicit that we're using Nietzsche's concept of it. You want to argue that it's a misrepresentation of the actual Dionysian, but it has no bearing on the question of whether the average prole/whore in the street live in way that can be considered in accordance with Nietzsche's philosophy.

>there isn't anything wrong with having fun, but distortion whole excessive love of the Dionysian on this board
Dionysian is about more than having fun, though it can include that in some respect. And this board hasn't been very Dionysian lately, it's evenly split between nihilistic degenerates and stuck up puritains.

>>13778337
And, again, it doesn't matter what the real intentions of the leader are. If you're building an entire propaganda on a misreading of a philosopher, you're misappropriating his ideas, even if you're doing it consciously and with ulterior motives.

>Your failure to understand this
I understand it easily, the problem is you not understanding that it is irrelevant.

> somehow an indication that they were misappropriating
It's not an "indication", it's a textbook example of misappropriation. For the third time, intentions here don't matter. If you steal from someone you've robbed them, having done so with a good purpose in mind doesn't make it any less of a robbery.

> If you wanted to show that they were you'd have to point to what their long term plans were
I showed you their actual policy. Not only the propaganda, but what they implemented once in power. And their long-term plans mostly involved ethnic replacement of most of Europe with people of Germanic origin, with supposedly some form of racial 'aristocracy" on top. So that's ethno-imperialism if you will, something Nietzsche spoke derisively about, particularly concerning Germans.

>that they were contradictory to what Nietzsche thought
None of them claimed to use Nietzsche's ideas, and for Napoleon NIetzsche explicitly said he was a mix of master and slave morality. Your thinking is very imprecise here.

Nietzsche would sometimes speak of consciousness with contempt. If he was an advocate of anything it wasn't reflexion (at best "rumination" as he puts it).

"Nietzsche would sometimes speak of consciousness with contempt. If he was an advocate of anything it wasn't reflexion (at best "rumination" as he puts it)."

From The Gay Science:

Architecture for Thinkers. An insight is needed (and that probably very soon) as to what is specially lacking in our great cities - namely, quiet, spacious, and widely extended places for reflection, places with long, lofty colonnades for bad weather, or for too sunny days, where no noise of wagons or of shouters would penetrate, and where a more refined propriety would prohibit loud praying even to the priest: buildings and situations which as a whole would express the sublimity of self-communion and seclusion from the world. The time is past when the Church possessed the monopoly of reflection, when the vita contemplativa had always in the first place to be the vita religiosa: and everything that the Church has built expresses this thought. I know not how we could content ourselves with their structures, even if they should be divested of their ecclesiastical purposes: these structures speak a far too pathetic and too biassed speech, as houses of God and places of splendour for supernatural intercourse, for us godless ones to be able to think our thoughts in them. We want to have ourselves translated into stone and plant, we want to go for a walk in ourselves when we wander in these halls and gardens.

I don't think Nietzsche views anything as black and white -- there are benefits and costs associated with thinking, but he definitely wasn't an advocate against reflection.

>> No.13779642

>>13779538
I stand corrected then, though it looks more like something he'd want for himself and other like-minded than something he advocates in general.
You are very much right about him not thinking in black and white (though thinking in shades of gray is even more anathema to him).

>he definitely wasn't an advocate against reflection
Perhaps consciousness of self-consciousness is a better term. He was very critical of the tendency to put rationality and reflexion above others aspects of life, and he often associated the unhealthiness of the modern age with an emphasis on abstract thought.

But perhaps that's another example of his opposing leisurely, aristocratic practices with tryhard endeavours, "rumination and reflection" rather than "mental laboring'

>The philosophical heirs of Nietzsche are the "postmodernists" (among others), while the Nazis are the philosophical heirs of nobody.
Hitler was in the process of creating a united Europe that would be structurally built from the ground up to systematically combat all forms of racial / ideological homogeneity, exactly what Nietzsche sought (race and ideology being one and the same for him). The Nazis were only exterminating the more rambunctious Jews and were preparing to export the rest of them outside of the country to another place that they would control, and after that was done, they planned to move on and do the same to the Muslims, and then much later the Christians and further and further every possible ideological race one could make distinct. Every other narrative was fabricated by the media, mostly by the English and the aforementioned Jews during wartime.

The postmodernists, meanwhile, ran with their partial understanding of Nietzsche's "there are no facts, only interpretations." It's common among the postmodernists to address matters of society, morality, language, meaning, art, etc.—everything previously analyzed as having an "objective" structure underpinning its effects which must be discovered and theorized—as if there IS NO structure at all. But this is not what Nietzsche meant by that statement; rather, that there IS a structure, and that structure is not limited by the "subject vs. object" formulation which had stemmed from the Christian scientists and scholars. Quantum science adheres to this structure that he saw, and is in the process of theorizing it. The postmodernists didn't fully understand Nietzsche and thought he meant that their imagination was allowed to run wild because the universe is as malleable as their imagination, and we see that they thought precisely that based on what they wrote, and what their successors ended up writing, who now fill up the universities with their art criticism and historical revision that is so debased even random people on the street can see that they are full of shit.

>And, again, it doesn't matter what the real intentions of the leader are. If you're building an entire propaganda on a misreading of a philosopher, you're misappropriating his ideas, even if you're doing it consciously and with ulterior motives.
It 100% matters what the real intentions are because that's the only way you're going to understand what it is they're building. The propaganda is not representing what is being built, it's merely a means—something which Nietzsche was fine with considering he admired Machiavelli's politics and Napoleon's militarism. Do you not understand what it takes to create something? Nietzsche understood it quite well. Creation requires SACRIFICE and it even requires DESTRUCTION AND MALEVOLENCE (see Zarathustra's The Night Song). The sun gives life to all; it also annihilates everything too close to it.
