Lovecraft while valuing aristocracy for its beauty understood it is destined like all things to die and be born a new, and also the same was true for democracy(to be suplanted by aristocracY)
Yet other writers and philosophers take a moralistic stand point on the plebs, like
>NOOOOOOOO YOU RE A SPITEFULL MUTANT YOU CANT JUST PILAGE MY PROPERTY, KILL MY ELDERS, RAPE MY WIFES AND DAUGHTER IN FRONT OF ME, ENSLAVE MY SONS AND THEN FINALY KILL ME
>{insert speech buble}
>{insert basedjak}

People's morals only get activated when things happen to them, or those they have attachments to. But they feel no morals when their actions affect those they don't even acknowledge.

I'm attempting to convey a difficult concept with text. Established factions are naturally biased towards their established identity. The aristocracy the upper class perceived or not will naturally justify itself - the lower class will also justify itself. And within both factions the desire to "defect" emerges as there will always be holes in each side's propaganda.

Nietzsche's point is that the spiteful mutants win by subverting the natural order. They proselytize their slave morality to the masters, until the masters adopt it themselves and go soft.
>Can't be beautiful and strong, that's bad. No, you can't carry weapons. Defending yourself and your property is unvirtuous. Oh no, the spiteful mutants turned against us! How could this happen! Now we can't defend ourselves! ACK!
The whole point Nietzsche was trying to make is that this is a trap the weak played on the strong, because the only way they could win was through subversion and by playing the long game. But that otherwise this would not happen. And also that societies ran by spiteful mutants tend to be miserable and produce nothing of value. Just look at the Soviet Union, they suffocated all of their artists in less than a few decades.
