[Black Pill] Nietzschean logic

[slop slinger]

Nietzsche is best when he is getting refracted through other thinkers.  He is like a freefloating contrarian impulse that you have to put towards certain ends to see its value instead of it being appreciated in itself.   This is why I think he was so helpful in the anti Hegelian turn in 1960s France. The best Nietzscheans are the ones who never mention his name, just like the best Freudians and Marxists.  Perhaps in the spirit of tragedy one must always show not tell.  But also on some points Nietzsche was not Nietzschean enough. He didn't doubt the biological determinism on which he grounds notions of the will to power, the drives, and affects with the same level of rigor he applied to moral determinism.  That was left to later thinkers who better transcended the mind body distinction especially Deleuze.
