Arminius, this counter movement already began during Nietzsche’s lifetime, by Samuel Butler, with his theory of systemic mechanical evolution that predicted aspects of Jan Smuts Holistic Philosophy.
He wrote a book called Erewhon.
A American author named Frank Herbert wrote Dune, which made a anti-technology war that ended the easy enslavement of man by machines, the war was called The Butlarian Jihad.
Humanity had already lived at a fairly primitive tech level for 10,000 years at the beginning of the story, and the book series is based off Nietzsche’s ideas… however, Frank tried to upend the Nietzschean assumptions by reversing the success of a Nietzschean concept upside down on its assumptions, Man bred the Overman, and the Overman wasnt interested in ghe horrors of the Nietzschean agenda, which he could see lead to universal extinction.
Dune is essentially the overman in struggle against its protagonist nietzschean forebearers.
I recommend just dropping the Nietzscheans like a sack of shit and comming over to our side. The ones on this forum are like, well… Cezar, ot Taz/BubbaGoddessWilderness, a Australian cartoonist and Amateur engineer who castrated himself, or Sauwelios, a dutch nietzschean who is into the golden dawn hermetic movement and neo nazis spiritualism, or Satyr/Lyssa, who is a Nietzschean with some serious Masculinity issues revolving around Jungian Phallic inflation-deflation issues… the rest here are just potheads, and every once in a while one will have a bad trip and off themselves.
That is Nietzsche. Its all he IS, not a quotable ought, but the IS that is apparent and provably shown.
The most pathetic people I know in philosophy are Nietzschean. They are all sad, pathetic little creatures.
In Cezar’s defence, he did reject Sauwelios White Arian nation crap, sighting emphasis on skin color is retarded… which I am inclined to agree. But I have rarely been impressed with anything this rotten idiotic sect has to say.
If your looking for long term human self sufficiency, then look for a Cynic offshoot school. I wouldnt recommend pure Cynicism in your case.
Im really not fearful of cybernetic implants or virtual worlds… I doubt most would care to live in a virtual world for long, and implants, depends case by case. I think Maia the blind girl on this forum would like Teilaxu Eye Implants, or someone in a car crash a new spine. I cant reject the benifits of such things.
But I think people can do more to improve themselves first. If I didnt have a bad knee than ruined my life in one part, I never would of become a philosopher, I never would of hiked a mountain range, never would of discovered what a good debater I was. Id probably be sitting designing weapons in Virginia for the Army, married to a outlook that wasnt sitting easy in my stomach.
