Are these all meant to be aphorisms? There is no argument here, all he is doing, atleast in the quotes you provide, is accusing and name throwing. You either agree with them or you donât, there is really no room for discussion, as there is no argument, only vague wording within divisive statements.
Well I have just started with the first chapter so bear with me.
There is some good stuff in coming quotes I have yet to post.
If you think about it nihilistic all ideals and forms of living are interpretations with some being more destructive than others.
Isnât all forms of living beyond survivalism mere aphorisms or interpretations from a insane conscious human being?

Aphorisms are merely attituted to provoke thought, they are not developed arguments withint themselves. All forms of living beyond survival are usually not terse one-liners, they have arguments and justifications beyond a simple statement of opinion.

More Might Is Right quotes:
[b]The idea of hell is in some respects a truthful conception,suggestive of actual fact. If we terrestialize the location, there is nothing inharmonious about it.
Many a race, many a tribe, and many a mighty empire has gone down into a grimly realistic sheol.[/b]
In actual operation nature is cruel and merciless to men, as to all other beings. Let a tribe of human animals live a rational life, nature will smile upon them and their posterity; but let them attempt to organize an unnatural mode of existence an equality elysium and they will be punished even to the point of extermination.
[b]All ethics, politics and philosophies are pure assumptions, built upon other assumptions. They rest on no sure basis. They are but shadowy castles in the air erected by day dreamers, or by rogues, upon nursery fables.
It is time they were firmly planted upon an enduring foundation.[/b]
[b]In no human brain can sufficient space be found, for the relentless logic of hard fact, until all pre-existent delusions have been finally annihilated.
Half measures are no avail, we must go down to the very roots and tear them out, even to the last fibre.
We must be like nature, hard ,cruel ,relentless.
Too long the dead hand has been permitted to sterilize living thought- too long, right and wrong, good and evil, have been inverted by false prophets.
In the days that are at hand, neither creed nor code must be accepted upon authority, human, superhuman or âdivineâ.
( Morality and conventionalism are for subordinates.)
Religions and constitutions and all arbitrary principles, every mortal theorem,must be deliberately put to the question. No moral dogma must be taken for granted- no standard of measurement deified.
There is nothing inherently sacred about moral codes. Like the wooden idols of long ago, they are all the work of human hands, and what man has made, man can destroy.[/b]
Wherever, therefore, a lie has built unto itself a throne, let it be assailed without pity and without regret, for under the domination of a falsehood, no nation can permantly prosper. Let established sophisms be dethroned,rooted out, burnt and destroyed, for they are a standing menace to all true nobility of thought and action. Whatever alleged âtruthâ us proven by results to be but an empty fiction, let it be unceremoniously flung into the outer darkness, among the dead gods,dead empires,dead philosophies and other useless lumber and wreckage.

And? Some of them seem quite truthful and factual to me.
