No, he was bellow the herd so he acted out. According to Nietzsche, the person in his time (that he knew of) that was closest to an übermensch was Napoleon, and the closest in history was Jesus.

Protip: if he randomly kills innocent people he's probably not an übermensch

no but he was probably funnier and more profound than any anon here. the only problem was that it was all unintentional. and the 'killing a bunch of folks' part is problematic as well.

You mean the twat that wrote a whole book about "waaah waaah why wouldn't girls fuck me Ill kill all of them", planned a mass murder against women for years and in the end only managed to kill 4 guys and 2 girls?

2.

TWO.

A random drunkard with a baseball bat could've killed more.

Why didn't he hire a prostitute? was he too caught up in the idea of himself as the supreme gentleman or something i don't get it

>Why didn't he hire a prostitute?
It was more that girls represented status and acceptance to him. His parents hired a woman life coach to hang out with him and even though he liked being around her it wound up depressing him that his parents had to pay women to hang around him.

Just like average height is considered short, or average tits are considered small.

People are innocently ruthless.

>>6464857
That does not provide validation to him. He wanted girls to offer themselves to him for being who he was. Anything less wouldn't cut it.

He was full of resentment and unchecked prejudices. And his violent aggression was the result of total inward collapse, rather than strength. So no, he wasn't even close to being one.
