if Nietzsche had read and understood this he would have rejected his entire oeuvre and lived to be 110 years old. Ziran is the only true way to "become what you are."

but he didn't. things unfolded the way they did and, so, they are thus. daoism isn't about looking back and thinking "ah jeez what if". if you think this way, you either haven't read the text in your image or you didn't understand it

holy shit you absolute sperg, I can do whatever I want on the Dao including having thoughts on its relation to Nietzsche and then using a hypothetical scenario to illustrate my opinion on said relation. I have read the book over 20 times and understand it better than anyone else you've ever spoken to.

i never said you couldn't

also, just as you pointed out that you can have your own thoughts and opinions, so can others, but it's not a big deal. reading a book X amount of times doesn't automatically mean you understand it X amount more than someone else

if you want to get mad about though, that's okay too

sage lol

Read Chuangzi instead. Daoism doesn’t have to be boring.

The cum that you are is not as you were nor as you wanted to be, cum a friend, cum a friend, cum an old memory.

Journey to the West where Buddhists systematically rape the shit out of daoism, without apologising about it, and every daoist and confucian demon and god with the least sensibility is converted to Buddhism and praises the Buddha and becomes part of the Tripitaka.
