>Seeing suffering feels good, making someone suffer even more so—it is a harsh proposition, but an ancient, powerful human, all-too-human principle that, by the way, even the apes would probably endorse: for it is said that in thinking up bizarre cruelties they richly foreshadow and as it were play "prelude" to humans. Without cruelty, no festival: thus the most ancient, longest period of human history teaches—and also in punishment there is so much that is festive!—
Was Nietzsche a sadist? There’s something psychopathic in those eyes.

It makes sense if you view him as wanting to humanity or everyone who read him and follow him to win against Nihilism

He is saying the opposite conclusion to logic. The logical thing would be to commit suicide so that no one suffers. The opposite implies affirming life, the greater the damage there is, the greater the wealth of the privileged.

Cringe. How does that even make sense? Suffering can positively impact you if you're subjugating others for personal gain but a dude slipping and sliding upon their knee does not benefit you. This is just edgy dogshit

Actually pleasure is just an effect of pain. Pain is the natural state of living beings, but by producing that pain in others you obtain pleasure. It is a mutual disagreement in which the harmed pay with their pain to benefit the torturer. The more pain there is, the greater the pleasure.

A sadist derives pleasure from someone else's pain. Nietzsche instead wanted "bad weather" so sunnier days would lie ahead.

Nietzschean environments may not be for everyone, even if they technically apply to everyone. If you can find the right Nietzschean environment and rise to the top then I can tell you with near absolute certainty that you will be able to stand toe to toe with virtually anyone and everyone in a philosophical environment and the only thing that may bring you down is a mistake you make. There is no way to say whether this is worth it to you, that is something only you can determine, but I am being genuine in saying what I have said.
