@ gotcha, I was speaking more on the valuations and actions Schopenhauer embodied, which Nietzsche viewed as anathema to the will to power. So we’re talking past each other somewhat.
I don't think that nietzsche's life affirming words withstand to the observation that bad things and suffering outweighs the joys of life, both in quantity and quality.

"bad things and suffering outweighs the joys of life, both in quantity and quality" - what is the measurement you apply? It can only be your very personal evaluation, nothing remotely 'objective' in your individual views. So, what if you changed your perspective, as Nietzsche suggested!?

For every suffering person you might find ten people who are glad, happy even -- it depends on where you focus your attention (and intention!). Your argument basically complains about the limitation of human existence: life ends in death, therefore life is bad. Such a view has, historically speaking, triggered two main reactions - the imaginings of a divine instance (saving us from the ultimate fate of deteriorating matter), or nihilism. The point of Nietzsche (and Existentialism) was that we are still free enough to take a stance, to give our individual existence meaning (instead of just passively reacting to the world of necessity). But only you yourself can do that; there is no falling back to preconceived, general categories. If you look for a mystical side to it, well, consider this: the whole of Being = one, and you can be a (limited) one too...
@@walterbraun3731 Scout887's argument is not a complaint about life's limitation - death. It's about the great imbalance of joy and suffering. He gave a very good example. Having eaten a bar of chocolate you won't enjoy any more of it, or if you fall in love, the passionate excitement will dwindle away sooner or later but if you had a chronic disease, you wouldn't experience fatigue of pain receptors; obviously you would treat yourself with medicine and/or painkillers but if you didn't, you would continue to feel the pain without an end (and it might even grow). Our pain sensors don't get satisfied or exhausted like our pleasure sensors. In other words, there's limit to pleasure but there's no limit to pain.
A fascinating analysis of Nietzsche's devastating critique of traditional "values." With his full sight focus on the Machiavellian distortion of values by religious institutions to service tyrants, Nietzsche's philosophical attack came with mountain lightning speed and the precision of Navy Seal alpine warfare from his Olympian Swiss Alps perch. The rarefied air and vantage point of the Swiss Alps along with Nietzsche's expertise in Greek and Latin philology gave Nietzsche the edge. The mercenary soldiers, representing the T.S. Eliot "hollow men" of the traditional state, university Marxist professors, and the lieutenants of the decayed, ossified Roman legion Church aka "origin of the term religion R..e legion", stood no chance against Nietzsche's intellectual firepower. With his courageous, ferocious mountain attack, Nietzsche fought to liberate "modern man" from the shackles of the Roman Empire tradition, and the Machiavellian "storylines" used throughout history to service the state, where souls went to die, "soul diers" all to promote the most sinister of agendas and the most depraved tyrants in history even if draped in silk robes and bespoke Savile Row suits. He fought to reveal again out of a keen instinct to release man to his no-limit capacity, to open the "dog gate" so man was left free to explore the vast Western horizons of thought and creativity, to go out on the leading edge of potentiality all while infused with the immensity and grandeur of the Ralph Waldo Emersonian described "immense intelligence" that pervades all, the real God Nietzsche fought to reveal for the luminosity of man. Thank you for sharing your video and philosophy expertise with Nietzsche aficionados across the world.

59:10 I wonder about what it was that he "hated" so much, particularly about the Germans more so than he did of other peoples? At the same time Brian here seems to go along with, for what ever reason and out of the blue, in wholly accepting the Nazi self view as being the ones living up to and espousing the German character towards its fullest potential? So Brian crowns his lecture with that as to make all his previous utterances fall into place with especially that in mind? Is this supposed "hate" his own words to cram down to his audience or is it the actual view of Nietzsche himself accurately represented? Nietzsche will also have said something along the lines of that 'one criticises that wich one loves' which could play into the fact that for whatever reason he still did choose to live among those that he for whatever reason supposedly here "hated" and did not move some other place to distance himself from what he allegedly so much disliked?
To answer directly: yes, Nietzsche hated the Germans for being disappointingly democratic, un-aristocratic and unselfish, extempting some good exemplars (Bach, Luther, Goethe, Beethoven etc.). He especially despised their new (2nd) "Reich" and its self-satisfaction. Also the Antisemitic movement of his time, which he regarded as pure ressentiment (not to speak of the strong socialist movement of his time). In the later, darker areas of his thought, he argued for creating a new aristocratic Herrenklasse for Europe, by cross-breeding Prussian military nobility (which he regarded to be of Polish descent as, wrongly, himself) for the will to power with the Jewish (for intellect). N.s theory of sensemaking ("justification") has many strong points, but it lead him straight to unrestricted aristocratism, he objected to the modern world of mass affluence and mass communication. I imagine him reacting to large audiences consuming lectures about him on the internet with utter disgust. For over 100 years, N. has been the most beloved philosopher of the insecure adolescent, I think that is a fair revenge of the Weltgeist.
I can't fuck with Ecce Homo. Liz had the final say with that publication and practly sold her dead brothers work and transformed it into her own "terrible truth" it's cool I appreciate the talk and it's nice to hear the echoes of the man. But that work is tainted by the black heart of the very person he denounced. Tragic in its own right.
From what I understand Ecce Homo was pretty much published as-is. The only work particularly “tainted” was The Will to Power, and Kaufmann’s commentaries are helpful for teasing out the gold from the dross with that one.
The description of this video is unfaithful to Nietzsche's actual philosophy embedded in his writing - if there is one - it's certainly not the French version represented here; the "life justified as an aesthetic phenomena" makes sense within a more expansive, critical & imaginative reading of Nietzsche, i.e. you all are actually Schopenhauerian in your discussion of "art" in relation to N. -
