Is Camus just rethreading Nietzsche? The things he says about the absurd, rebellion, love and so on remind me of Nietzsche's active nihilism and the three transfigurations or whatever they're called (camel, lion, child). I haven't gotten too deeply into Camus yet, but it feels too similar to what I'm already familiar with in Nietzsche and it's making it a bit of a slog or maybe warping my expectations.
camus is about being based and shooting arabs and curing plaguesnietszhe is about incel rage
>>24774048You read Kaufman for N huh? It's worth noting they Kaufman is a jew and someone who intentionally interpreted N as a proto existentialist.
>>24774088No, I read Nietzsche for Nietzsche. Maybe read what he had to say about antisemitism while you're at it.
>>24774090He was wrong and maybe would have seen that in an environment like the present where christianity was more associated with philosemitism (also if he saw ideological coopting of his work being done primarily by this weasely jew.)
>>24774048yeah, he was deeply influenced by Nietzsche like most continental philosophers
>>24774106The thing about /pol/tardism is that it's pathological even when it's correct, which is why it's also as boring as it is. It can only function through constant repetition and nothing else. Much like everything else happening these days, to be fair. We live in the age of post-truth turbocharged with mass-produced AI propaganda, after all. It's very tiresome.
>>24774048You forgot Stirner.
>>24774534Fair. But Nietzsche & Stirner already had some kind of vague plagiarism controversy going on, so it almost goes without saying.
