nietzche is not explicitly a philosophy of freedom because it is a philosophy of negation. of disorder. but if the entire layer that he targets could be taken out we would perhaps realize something more concrete and less wishy washy.

[gen6k]

the best i can describe nietzche's goal is to double penetrate the forms of history and his time, and then to try to see if there is any space above it. kind of like a new freer level. nietzsche is really a precursor to something bigger that has not been realized yet.

[gen6k]

his views are not as placid as "gaining power" this isnt a napoleonism. he tries to explain the psycho-dramatic dimension of power and its cascading meta-cultural effects through play acting and producing a lot of work.

nietzsche definetly had psychotic depressive bouts, and probably commited some type of violence to some degree. he was an academic and enjoyed talking to a few people like the composer richard wagner. nietzche is not a "jesus christ" or "goodness" in the platonic sense type of figure. he accepts mistakes as personal transformation, and he fetishizes what was then pretty much occultism. he is not a "perfect" philosophical archetype he still includes all of his attributions and faults in his work.

[gen6k]

nietzsche was simply trying to shine some light on social problems including sex, race and relations. he does have a tendency towards violence and the collapse of structure as well as "vanity" and "haughtiness". although i would think that he is more alienated being a philosopher from other "classes". non-philosophical classes such as "women". women do not enjoy philosophers or physicists because their intelligence is lower it is not only a fault of the male's persona.
