It's impossible to place him on the political spectrum, he shits all over every conventional morality. His overman is sort of right wing because it involves praise for unambiguous hierarchy, one man asserting his will over his lessers, but it's a stretch to equate this to any actually existing right wing political theory like monarchism, fascism, whatever, and his mockery of tradition further removes him.

It's obviously comical when the left try to appropriate Nietzsche as being somehow supportive of their humanistic programs but the right can't really claim him either.

This is the more interesting argument, but I don’t know if Heidegger can be put safely on the Being side, unless I’m misunderstanding his concept of ontological unfolding

Yes, not only Heidegger but many of them would be impossible to firmly place in one of the categories. I do however think, as seems to be the consensus in this thread, that OP just made the picture to fit his conception of the left-right dichotomy of politics—which strikes me as sad.

Buddha was a moralistic and narcissistic twerp who agitated against traditional institutions like castes and the Vedic priesthood, he was basically the ancient Steven Pinker. Schopenhauer said that reading the Upanishads was the solace of his life, not the Pali Canon.

Nietzsche hates Buddhism. His entire life was spent trying to prevent Europe from falling into neo-Buddhism. Why the fuck is he on the same side as the got-dang Buddha?

Where else would he be? It is impossible to think that Nietzsche was anything but a revolutionary given that his entire life's work was to dismantle the western philosophical tradition.
>>14437062
Not really. The ones on the left are all about theories of becoming, creation of systems etc., the right are prophets, conservators and ministers.
>>14437276
It's got nothing to do with their place in the modern political spectrum, the left all have philosophies of becoming while the right are of being. Obviously this does tend to lead to certain tendencies in the political spectrum, as one couldn't reasonably dispute the existence of an unchangeable universal whilst simultaneously being a conservative.
