No, he was the only true Nietzschean superman.

That would be Rasputin.

Not at all. When Nietzsche spoke of the Übermensch he though of Alcibiades, Caesar, Cesare Borgia and Napoléon.

Any drug lord is a Nietzschean Übermensch. Specially if they don't get caught.

>tfw was Nietzschean before Nietzsche

>>533113
That's cesare borgia

>>533128
He probably means that borgia isn't the ONLY uber driver

No, it's obviously Jesus (I'm joking). In fact I was saying he isn't the sole Übermensch according to Nietzsche. Just as >>533133 points out.
>>
No, he wasn't a superman at all. He was the definitive man of his times. A superman is not a man of his times, he is a man of the future who destroys his own laws to make room for the new laws. Napoleon and Mohammed were supermen. Hitler, if he had been successful, would have been a superman.

This guy was definitely one for a time >>533061

I think the only non-violent superman in history is Jesus Christ, but he seldom gets mention as one.
>>
>>533534
You might also think that perhaps Lenin qualifies, but he does not, he did not create the values he imposed, Marx did.
>>
>>533113
He also thought Goethe was Ubermensch.

>cucked by Mussolini: the author
>>
>>533584
>implying it wasn't the opposite
It was his influence that turned Mussolini from a confused socialist into a macho fascist
>>
>>533598
yes I am implying it. Mussolini never was a confused socialist.
Everything D'Annunzio desired, Mussolini achieved.
>>
>>533564
I can see that. I guess he had some kind of renaissance man in my mind which Goethe certainly was (not from someone being active in the time period but in a polymath kind of way, I'm sure you get it).
