    There is a huge distortion of information in this video. Nietzsche was not interested in making people happy by any means. This is absurd. Nietzsche condemn the cheap selfish of happiness, he didn't want to make people happy, he wanted to elevate people, by endure, to make their reach new levels of creativity, courage, perception. Nietzsche served a greater purpose than egotistic self care. He served the purpose of improve humanity by raising our goals to infinity.

  • The religion of comfortableness. Small needy people hiding in forests like shy deer.

  • holy hell i just had a eureka moment watching this video

  • fantastic video, i agree with Vls 174 :-p

  • Anyone who's suffered in life knows that it strengthens but also wares you down and destroys opportunities. We aren't plants or muscles building upon our own selves, we are larger organisms of complexity. Challenges and pain will drive you insane like what happened to Nietzsche, who should of smoked some weed and had some moderation. Fight Club is cool but you can't street fight for real all the time without becoming a brain damaged gimp who can no longer hold his own dick. Grow up motherfuckers

  • "Nietzsche was interested in making people happy." No pain no gain for the common man!

  • So few of you have read Nietzsche! Make your own mind up and be satisfied with your own truth! Arguing the meaning of Nietzsche's works in youtube comments - the irony! A pertinent quote

    "My opinion is my opinion: someone else has no casual right to it"—that’s what a philosopher of the future will perhaps say. One must rid oneself of the bad taste of wanting to agree with many."

  • @MrWatchdawg77 You're killing me.

  • @Peteromich I'm not impressed!

  • @MrWatchdawg77 Yes, really.

  • @Peteromich Really? 

  • @MrWatchdawg77 Sure, so many "better" people have philosophized about suffering. But it was Nietzsche who uncovered the hidden unconscious motivation behind many of these "better" people's philosophical values and morals. It was Nietzsche who demonstrated how Christianity was a "revaluation of all values" hitherto. Nietzsche was able to step beyond the constraint of just one perspective and thus free himself to really Think! Whereas many "better" people never did Think but simply Reacted.
