Which led to his master-slave morality, where it is the master's obligation to command and the slave's obligation to obey. I would say that isn't really the ideal, i.e. what we should encourage others to strive towards, regardless if that is the nature of the world, the herd, etc. Or, his Will to Power, and that all action is borne out of a thirst for --- and ought to be done as an exercise of --- greatness and nobility, and never out of pity for the plight of others . . . seemed to me to be a little unsympathetic.It seems to me like you didn't understand Nietzsche all that well. Oh, well, I guess he's not for everybody, as he said himself. No worries, mate, I'm sure you'll like some other washed-up unrealistic philosopher.
Let me guess. Your favorite philosopher is Sam Harris.
