And yet, whatever Nietzsche says, the ego is still an illusion.

Does he ever reflect on that, on the idea of self? I've only read Beyond Good and Evil.

>Does he ever reflect on that, on the idea of self?
Absolutely he does. In The Gay Science.

Nietzsche says in Ecce Homo too that the purely selfish and the purely selfless actions are both lies, which I think summarizes his type of view perfectly.

Destroyed is a big a word, we didn't listen to his advices. He saw nihilism coming and he was right, look at what we're doing as a species today, and as individuals. What are we even doing? What are we working towards?

>annihilated feminism
Sauce? I'm intrigued.

>annihilated nihilism
I think after establishing a basis for nihilism, he disliked the implications of where nihilism led and did try to spend a good deal of his life trying to argue against it, which led to the rise of existentialism... from memory.

In terms of the concept of nihilism being 'annihilated' from an absolutist perspective, I haven't found anything from him that would suggest that.
>>
>>448554
>Hes overrated IMO.
Just the opposite, Nietzsche has so many answers to everything. Even utilitarianism, theory of forms, Kantian ethics, reason, etc..
>>
>>448579
He has a few sections in his books. One thing I explicitly remember is he said a feminist could never grasp his philosophy.

he promotes the idea that morality is a human invention, he never said they are equal. In fact his whole criticism of Christianity and socialism is because they are a lower type of morality for lower types of humans.

Nietzsche is THE anti-egalitarian philosopher. For fuck sakes he gets banned from liberal universities.

>The three traveled with Salomé's mother through Italy and considered where they would set up their "Winterplan" commune. Arriving in Leipzig, Germany in October, Salomé and Rée separated from Nietzsche after a falling-out between Nietzsche and Salomé, in which Salomé believed that Nietzsche was desperately in love with her.
>Salomé and Rée moved to Berlin and lived together until a few years before her celibate marriage[4] to a linguistics scholar, Friedrich Carl Andreas. Despite her opposition to marriage and her open relationships with other men, Salomé and Andreas remained married from 1887 until his death in 1930.

The last few years of his sanity were the most productive.

And yes, he was miserable most of his life.

Nietzsche here is referring to things working within the frame of morality. But the real understanding is beyond good and evil.

If you actually read his books this would be incredibly obvious. The answer is literally in one of the titles.

No, he's not.

You've only read one of his books. I read BG&E, Twilight of the Idols, Genealogy of Morals two times, The Gay Science, and Ecce Homo.

He clearly believes that different things suit different people and that's okay. He's not a moral relativist in the contemporary sense, though, he believe conflict between different moralities is good.

So you don't believe in a subconscious? Or that early childhood events can have a profound effect on one's adult life? That's all just pseudo-science.

>>454501
His genological method is now the go to historical method. Before him the historical method was to try to view all events through the lens of modern culture.

Historical ideas that were 'false' were not even discussed, Nietzsche made us care about asking why people believe what they believe rather than just saying what they believed.

>>454543
The self is an illusion in the sense that a unified 'whole' self exists. The self is actually a collective of many conflicting wills. An idea that psychology would later say is correct. That's why Freud is so revolutionary because of his theory of the subconscious wills.

The idea of the self as a whole united thing with 'free will' is a religious idea that was made up in order to allow people to be wholly guilty.

He doesn't say this.

During the end of the first book of Zarathustra, Zarathustra tells all of his philosophers to become skepetics and question everything and assume that he himself has been deceiving you. He even says you can never learn him dogmatically, only skeptically "Only after you have denied me will I return to you"

https://books.google.com/books?id=wQpkr9P_K18C&pg=PA281&lpg=PA281&dq=%22perhaps+zarathustra+has+deceived+you%22&source=bl&ots=5N2o5n33GR&sig=iDLEDd21j5JRCZvVdDGfjV_RJ1Q&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwi4_IbA7_TJAhUJ5WMKHWSHA40Q6AEIHDAA#v=onepage&q=%22perhaps%20zarathustra%20has%20deceived%20you%22&f=false

>The idea of the self as a whole united thing with 'free will' is a religious idea that was made up in order to allow people to be wholly guilty.

Ok, but I'm not seeing how this applies to egoistic philosophers such as Nietzsche or Stirner. Whether the self is one thing, or many things, it's still pretty distinctly something.

Also the question of whether we have free will only really matters with religious systems.
>>
>>458067
The point about a person's identity being multiple separate things has profound implications. A body is just a collection of multiple wills and many of these wills can exist after the body dies, some existed before the body lived. The exact number of Wills and their hiearchy is always changing. Old ones die when they are of no use to the other wills even as a slave. New ones may be created by people.

The real question is why must be axiomatically assume there is a self? We've grown up in a Christianized culture that had a theological need for the term to exist, sort of how like we just assume there must be 'free will' because we came out of a culture where the religion would struggle to function without it.

>Also the question of whether we have free will only really matters with religious systems.
This is true, Nietzsche discusses this in one part of Genealogy. One must be a complete whole 'self' and their will be totally 'free' in order for them to guilty. So you are free from your sins because you were not 'free to choose' and your soul will not be punished because your 'self' is collection of thousands of Wills. Your actions are the result of a complex hiearchy of conflicting needs and urges with no single one being a 'self'. But he isn't a determinist either.

There must be free will and there must a united whole 'self' in order to have the concept of guilt. Nietzsche rejects both free and determinism. No individual will is free, they are constantly battle for supremacy and it may be controlled by one will while also controlling a 3rd will.
