Lex, you should have me on. As host of The Nietzsche Podcast, I can help correct many of the popular errors about Nietzsche that are unfortunately repeated by many intellectuals without a comprehensive knowledge of his ideas. Further, as I live in Austin, arranging an interview should be quite easy!
If you are actually impactful or insightful then you might actually get a following big enough to get invited to the interesting people to be interviewed club. That you are begging in a TH-cam clip comment I'm already doubting the quality of your insight.
Happiness comes and goes, rather to be in love with life, as it can only be transmitted, nothing can give me this feeling; one always gets the sense that others are looking for happiness, or experiencing it, but it's a parasitic situation, an arrangement. Love 🧡 exists above all, one gets into love like a bird flies in the sky, its a mode of being-it is being-it is liberation from the world as an arrangement, from the loops, from the cultural habit of being told what to do and going through the motions. Love is freedom, it has no obligation, but attracts everything, and everything is invited, but does not oppress once inside it. Fearlessly beyond fate and karma and found in the ocean of possibility where the mind becomes music and words have no choice but to be prayer. God lives there.
Love isn't just "liberation" from society, or from being told what to do. That may be for a teenager, but for an adult, it's also discipline. It's prudence and temperance, as well as moderation (perhaps the most important virtue). Compassion isn't good in and of itself, but rather to be compassionate, for the right reasons, to the right degrees, to the right people. Too little and too much are vices indeed. The _mean_ is where virtue lies. Aristotle's "doctrine of the mean".
Misery loves company. They won't tell you to be unhappy, but will (often not on purpose) will make you feel shame for being happy. As someone with major depression I have done this, and have to be cautious of the effect I'll have on someone
No one says you shouldn't be happy. There are actions initiated by others that lets you know that your happiness is unwarranted in their mind. People wont be explicit about feeling that your happiness is unjust, but they will certainly act in a cowardly manner by exhibiting their displeasure for people's happiness in other ways. They're contempt for your happiness is not always obvious and you would be naive to think it requires individuals to walk around explicitly saying you shouldn't be happy.
Nietzche was on another level compared to other western philosophers. He had a level of insight that was on par with many great mystics.
And he was still a fool at times
@@Dutchman451 Yup. More so than many other philosophers was he a product of his time.
What other “mystics”? 🤔

He is not, hes the most important philosopher in the west for over a century.
Is he looked over? I feel like alot of people are heavily influenced by him in my experience i may be wrong
@@tomsnow2872 depends on which subject but yeah at least one of the most influential

Yes!
@T S which is why Lex has a great opportunity to introduce me to his audience *before* I’m already the biggest podcast on earth!
Do you have a degree?

The people that demand the most from society are often the people that contribute the least to society.
Always just slugs
Like Trump?
@jerry baah Well said.
Amazingly accurate summary in under 3 minutes.
I can't remember which book the Nietzsche quote is from? I think it might be On the Genealogy of Morals? I'll have to check it out.
The Nietche Podcast is very good 👍
What is that?
Nailed it
The unhappiness of one is the unhappiness of us all.
Anyone hearing Hannibal Lecter reading Neitzche here?
Yes, pure sophistication. Mads Mikkelsen’s lost twin.
In what book is this quote? I was not able to find.
Ownness, owner, own. The Unique. Nietzsche encountered Max Stirner and this was the ‘best ‘ he could do. Others have faired no better.
Amazing

The DC Comics “Justice”League… is Neitchze the Joker?
Who is going around saying you shouldn’t be happy? Is this guy for real? I’ve never had someone tell me to stop being happy.
I had a friend who shamed me for trying to get him out of his depression and he dragged me down into it before shooting off.

I’d advice you to read his latest book ”war on the west” to really understand.
Here he explains were resentiment comes from.
douglas is cringe he just copies neitszche ideas
