Because he's right.

His ideas work better to model history and other people's philosophy than what other philosophers have going on. Most other philosophy is just mistaking language as the master of reality, when it's really the opposite

>>24873735
Evola wasn't a Nietzschean, he held ideas in higher regard than reality.

>>24874714
No he didn't. If anything, he said that "right makes might". A large part of his project is tracing how certain moralities evolved to empower those who created them. That includes both slave morality and master morality. And while he liked master morality compared to slave morality, he still saw it as naive and wanted something better.

Chuds, by which I guess you mean right wing people, are likely to be opposed to a politics based on pity, like Nietzsche was.

Of course, Nietzsche was opposed to nationalism, so the relationship is only instrumental.

No chud has actually read Nietzsche, and if anything modern chuds hate him for his association with atheism

>>24873586
Only the most radical chuds (O9A, AWD) seem to be into him, although they miss or ignore his critiques on people that inflict suffering on others for "power".

Because he's (at least at first glance) easy and digestible for people with no significant intellectual ability or cultivation. He's very appealing to people in the 100-115 IQ range for much the same reason that Murakami or Orwell are popular with people in that range.

I haven’t read Nietzsche but at some point I will because I need to find out if he is le based chud or le heckin chungus.
From what I’ve seen posted of him here he seems like a complete faggot who just criticizes everything without offering any real alternative.
What’s a good place to start? I’m thinking Beyond Good and Evil
>>
>>24875485
Beyond Good and Evil is the right place to start. I don't think it's true that he doesn't offer an alternative though. It's true that he doesn't say anything as clear as I AM THE LEADER OF THE NIETZSCHEANS - THIS IS WHAT YOU MUST DO but nor do many philosophers. If he focuses on critique its because, to him, not nearly enough critique has been done. What you will find is an attitude to life that denies the prescriptive power of pity and of normalisation, one that affirms treating lightly what has so far, even now, treated itself so seriously.
>>
>>24875485
A decent collection that presents the basic gist of him. Minimal commentary from the editor.
He's just a lonely guy talking about being tough as nails. He isn't chud or chungus whatever the fuck those mean. He just didn't like the nihilism creeping up in the light of the people losing god in their lives

nietzsche put the nail in coffin of any gay childish shit I had. he's opened my eyes to the absolute coal that modern reactionary groups are. even this rising surge of traditionalism is just collective cope for lack of wet pussy desu. theyre all resentful chud freaks.

solomaxxing is the way to go. Kierkegaard was another great read. If God condemns me for not committing to some foreign trad larp, so be it.

Where to start with Nietzsche?
>>
He was kind of a Chud
He hated Christianity, the nationalists of his time and some kinds of vulgar antisemitism, but people forget that he was an anti semite himself and that he was deeply anti-democracy, anti-populism, anti-socialism etc. He espoused a kind of "heroic pagan" worldview which people who are not familiar with the Greeks won't understand, so he was a sort of Chud. Not like a Christian larper Chud who thinks that society needs to be a theocracy and that we need to go back to burning fags at the stake, but a kind of Chud who wants a return of the magnificence of the ancient aristocracies and the military state, and whose ideal human would probably be someone like Achilles or Alexander.

They were faggots who used Nietzsche's analysis to criticize white people and straight men and hid behind Enlightenment universalism if ever anyone dared to levy those same criticisms against their favorite minority groups (gays, blacks, women, etc.).
Foucault frequently made arguments where he said that many rules in society are based on nothing at all but power in order to imply that they are bad, then sneak in a reference to something like the age of consent and let the reader conclude that it is unjust without his ever saying it himself.
Spengler was one of the few true inheritors of Nietzsche who took his analysis to its logical conclusion and embraced the unknowable aspect of experience instead of treating it one-sidedly against the people in power.

Because most chuds dont have any knowledge about other philosophers like Kant, Descartes, Ancient greeks etc. When they jump right onto Nietzsche's works they think all the ideas written in the book are Nietzsche's. In the end, he was just a big plagiarist and a grand provoker.
>>
Adopting Nietzscheanism is just a way to intellectually sanction a feeling of personal superiority over others. The worldview (it is really a psychology) is built on pure spite. You can see it in the seething, abrasive way Nietzsche wrote -- never a tender moment, fantasies of murdering "the botched and weak", a satanic belligerence that suggests he had never experienced the ennobling effects of Christian love on the sensitive European soul. Today's Nietzscheans are just the same as him. They are obsessed with bodybuilding not because they love beauty but because they want to stand out as superior to other men in a pathologically obsessive way. Beauty for them is only valuable insofar as it is comparative: a grand cathedral on its own is uninteresting, but next to a run-down shack in which some poor fellow lives in poverty it stands out as a symbol of power and humiliation, and so is pleasing to them. Nietzscheans are ultimately resentful larpers with weird complexes (like BAP, a dark-haired Romanian Jew who is always talking about the "superior" Nordic race) and there's maybe a minority of them who are actual sadistic psychopaths or serial killers, but I doubt even they exist because such types are usually so by nature and need no intellectual backing for what they are. The good thing is these types are usually utterly powerless, but with the way our civilisation is heading into nihilism I fear we will see them becoming more prominent.

This tolerance and largeur of the heart that “forgives” everything because it “understands” everything is a sirocco to us. Rather live amid the ice than among modern virtues and other such south-winds!... We were brave enough; we spared neither ourselves nor others; but we were a long time finding out where to direct our courage. We grew dismal; they called us fatalists. Our fate—it was the fulness, the tension, the storing up of powers. We thirsted for the lightnings and great deeds; we kept as far as possible from the happiness of the weakling, from “resignation”... There was thunder in our air; nature, as we embodied it, became overcast—for we had not yet found the way. The formula of our happiness: a Yea, a Nay, a straight line, a goal....

I read Schopenhauer as Educator which was honestly relatively enjoyable and very easy to read. I finished it in <24 hours.
I moved on to Beyond Good and Evil and dude what the fuck is this guy's deal? His writing style is honestly pretty faggy. It feels like I'm reading a play or something. He uses a ton of Latin phrases and maybe it's due to the translator but I have to look up a lot of words as well because they're so uncommon.
He also doesn't really make strong points rather he seems to just kind of just do these "ermm well see X is actually Y". I'm very early in so maybe it gets better but for a guy who admired Schopenhauer to such the extent which Nietzsche did he sure didn't take on any of his clear writing.

he is actually is the easiest of them all

i read BGE and it's just descartes skepticism but unlike descartes he never gets out

Nietzsche is only famous because of his recognition of origin of morality, that was enough to break the minds of christians and leftists and liberals

if you are weak, nobody should care, the only counter argument so far has been , "okay that's too edgy"
some even say Nietszche loves the weak, he is just criticizing them so they can be better!
these losers can't even imagine someone is actually saying to their face that they should perish as vermins that they are

even russell had nothing to say, he just made up a dialogue between buddha and Nietzsche and called it a day in history of western philosophy!

Schopenhauer is by far the easiest to read but Schopenhauer also has something to say whereas, at least so far in my reading of Nietzsche, he hasn't said anything of value. Nietzsche seems more focused on style over substance.
>>
>>24884848
i agree, in BGE he didn't say anything deeply philosophical, the entire point was plato or kant developed their systems out of subconscious desires

i even stole his catchphrase "the ass has arrived, nice and handsome" and put it in my bio!

the rest of it is just "learn to say no, Girl" or some bs self-help book but for intelligent people which i don't mind

i really liked how he said something like this: once you denounce every value you are on your own, no one is there to tell you to fix your mistakes, the price for independence, something like that
