Nietzsche is one of the most misunderstood philosophers. His prose is electrifying. it can intoxicate a mind in a single passage. I wrote a piece on how to approach him carefully: always within the context of the thinkers who shaped him and the moral crucible he was writing against.
The most blatant misuse of his work? It came from his own sister.
In every way, a superb introduction to a prescient thinker, often misunderstood, but now indispensable in comprehending the malaise of faith and its consequences.
Thank you for such an interesting and incisive homage.
Excellent, thank you so much!

Took a bit of scrolling but finally found the article 🙃
Thanks for taking the time and reading. Much appreciated! 🙏
Who is in the photo w/ three men? Nietzsche is on the right, so who is on the left and who is in the middle of the three shown above?
Fascinating

In despair, we warn people about history’s perpetual cycle. Your article reminds us that heroic courage can cycle through generations, too.
Great read, thank you
What’s his best book?
