I miss the Islamist spam bros. At least they were funny. The Nietzsche, Marx, and communist spammers aren’t even funny, and they’re unironically more self-righteous than the Muslims back in February were.

That moustache is seriously impressive. you just don't see that anymore. I am predicting a moustache resurgence because so many men are wearing masks and will feel safe to experiment with new facial hair. I'm already starting to see an uptick in moustaches on my campus. It is time to invest in the male facial hair industry.

The only way out of this diseased world is God Jesus Christ, who can give us meaning and a pathway to follow. Pray a lot asking for God to show you what to do, He will listen to you. Have faith and don't give up. God bless you and I hope that you can find the way.

Is there any room in your mind for people who understand him and disagree with him, or are you fully indoctrinated?

[Anonymous No.19018188]

>>19016324
>He was incredibly young for his university promotion
Yes, and then he destroyed his reputation as a philologist with The Birth of Tragedy
>the guy was a genuine celebrity rubbing shoulders with people like Wagner while publicly touted as a genius
Yes, and then he fucked up that too. In the end Wagner would spread highly damaging gossip, and Nietzsche ended up being shunned by Wagnerite circles.

No true scotsmen eh?
You wouldn't be satisfied with any analysis of (insert whomever you fellate) unless it was a word for word quote and "isn't he just so perfect bros??"
What's more, one's ability to articulate has little bearing on the validity of ideas.
If one is more concerned with flowery prose than with truth one is an irrelevant sophist.

I assert that there's very little time left in which he will be remembered, and he would probably agree.

Just because he wasn't rewarded with shiny trinkets in his lifetime does not make him a failure. Besides, insecurities about being a failure can drive one to achieve greatness.

Don't make Nietzsche threads unless you read and understand. This board has become flooded with dumb zoomies shitflinging over petty ignorant conceits they have about philosophers they have never and probably will never even bother reading.

Just read Nietzsche. If you don't get it, either you're too dumb, ignorant, or immature. You shouldn't even bother with philosophy until you're at least 22 yo. Until then focus on normal schooling, the classics, and marketable skills. The minimum age for posting on 4chan should be raised to 25
