Is there a more misunderstood philosopher than Nietzsche?

[Anonymous No.18209540]

It's his own fault for being intentionally contradictory

[Anonymous No.18209553]

Ted Kaczynski. So many retards think he is an anarcho-primitivist or that he wants some sort of Linkola-tier centralized state to solve all of the problems. Either that, or they only read what he said about leftists and proclaim him “based”

[Anonymous No.18209555]

Yeah, your mom and her "suck every cock in the room, no matter how fat ugly and old" philosophy. People thought it was a metaphor, but she sincerely met perform oral sex on every male in the room until ejaculation, which is a philosophy she lived her life by.

he'd be a Trump supporter

No, he'd probably be a China supporter.

Nah, he would have favored Italian Fascism over Hitler's paranoid non-sense.

Hitler completed Nietzchean philosophy

[Anonymous No.18209638]

>>18209621
No, Gabriele D'Annunzio did. Hitler was too stupid to be Nietzchean.

So you have to be a fucking retarded to waste your time supporting a politician that he's not even from your country, you can't even vote for him in the first place

[Anonymous No.18209695]

>>18209682
Nietzsche did do that, though. He praised Napoleon, he praised the Russian czars, he praised the Muslims, he praised Spinoza, etc.

Socrates

[Anonymous No.18209711]

>>18209537
Perhaps if his works weren't filled with sticky notes to himself and actually flushed out like traditional philosophers, then there would be little ambiguity to what he says. I think he has many strokes of brilliance throughout his books, but that he is so deliberately careful with the words he uses tends to make him a very hard read. There's something to admire in that, but I would prefer he just have the balls to write more to the point instead of being so scared of self contradiction that he chooses to avoid further explanation of anything. Schopenhauer is way more enjoyable to read.

Napoleon was also fucking dead before he was even born, I'm not saying that you can't praise someone from a different country but to take part in the election of another country seems pretty stupid

Hmmm. Why would he do that?

[Anonymous No.18210427]

Hegel and Heidegger.

[Anonymous No.18210803]

>>18209537
He's commonly "misunderstood" because there are a ton of different ways to interpret him and conclusions to be drawn. The fact that leftists, elitists like Spengler, and populist demagogues like Hitler all took influence from him isn't weird, it makes perfect sense. Even people misunderstanding "god is dead" is totally expected, since he was being intentionally edgy for shock value in addition to trying to make a point. His idea of perspectivism shines through in what people take from his works.

[Anonymous No.18210966]

>>18210427
I don't think either Hegel or Heidegger are "misunderstood", rather "not understood". People explain Nietzsche however it suits them, while largely staying clear of interpreting Hegel and Heidegger.

By misunderstood does people mean that their interpretation isn't the same as someone else interpretation of work
I think it is about personal truth and opinions

>uh, you can't hate rich people because that's slave morality
>a rich conservative basing his entire life on fearing "the mob" and how the populace needs to be bludgeoned into obedience so people like him can continue wealth extraction? yeah sure that's not a philosophy of resentiment

is this some sort of Western supremacist attitude??
