On isolation, wilderness, strength (?) on the one side and herd, taming and sociability on the other. The herd instinct…
On the sacrifice of the individual to wellbeing of the herd:
Obviously nowadays there is a strong need among many individuals to live fully aside from the society and not on the top of a hierarchical one. Only a hierarchical society gives an opportunity to the rare ones to keep their individuality and culture and not to be sacrificed to the wellbeing of the egalitarian society. Thus, the only way out of the herd is into a new rank-ordered society. All those who accept the possibility of the Übermensch are welcome. God is an egalitarian.
Nietzsche exposes in his entire Ecce Homo, his attitude toward idealism.
The difference between arts and idealism is that idealists try to overthrow the nature while artists only expose the best examples of it. Perhaps like Borgia vs Spiderman…
Of course, not every art is an idea-art, there is a lot if idealistic art, including religion.
Plato is an idealist and Aristotle an idea-man.

Here is what entire google offers on “I hate idealism”:
I’m not mean or anything, but I HATE idealism and dunder-headed belief systems that inhibit people from reaching their goals. Often, the more painful the intervention, the larger the reward…
The ability to think critically. This is the reason why i hate idealism with a passion. You cannot criticize or analyze any idea with out being crucified by either side. Neither side finds any attraction of the idea of give and take. Selfish at its core. These two can only only see the differences in each other. If only they could realize they have more in common than they do in difference.
Why do I hate idealism? Somewhere deep inside me, the eccentric me just wants to question all these things around me…
I am a man of practicality,i hate idealism extremely.my motto of life is*EVERYTHING IN THIS WORLD HAS SHADES OF GREY,THERE IS …
And that is why I hate idealism; its a completely unrealistic concept that just increase the speed of decadence.
Build your own dreams, or someone else will hire you to build theirs. –Farrah Gray (idealist … if you ask yourself why women like compliments … you are hired)
Here is the Jewish race obviously contrasted with the modern Europeans. And in Vollgraff’s order of rank of the nations the Jews are about 5 ranks higher than the Germans.
Nietzsche’s rescue-plan would look like this: the highest and most developed humans have sharpest senses and see truth better than others. Therefore is philosophy as the crown of all human development until now. Religion is just ‘the first halftime’ in human existence. Nietzsche is the turning point in history between religion and philosophy. He “breaks history in two” and represents the “great noontide”. His Zarathustra creates an Earth society (included is just who choses to be and who believes in Übermensch). This society has different classes … we see that he loves also simple workers who believe in Übermensch and work for this idea. There is obviously also a warrior class. Then a class of sublimes, an aristocracy, which naturally rises from the warriors. And then a class of philosophers, the Masters of Earth, which rise from the sublimes. They rule like the Greek pantheon of gods, i. e. like panphilosophers. The rest of humanity is observed as without rights. “If they don’t give us we take it alone”.
“Aber auch wenn die von Russland organisierte slawische Völkerwanderung (II, 247) einmal in der Zukunft nach Westen vordränge, werde Russland gleichwohl nicht zur geistigen Beherrschung Europas in der Lage sein, weil diesem Volke „das gänzlich abgeht, womit man auf die Dauer eine politische Herrschaft über höher kultivierte und zivilisierte Völker zu behaupten im Stande ist” (III, 882)." (Schoeps)
“Eine solche politische Herrschaft muss schlechterdings durch eine natürliche geistige und Kultur-Aristokratie des Volkes, welches sie auf die Dauer ausüben will, unterstützt und getragen werden und diese fehlt gezeigter Massen den Russen.” (Vollgraff, Ethnologie § 422, c)
"Erste Frage: die Herrschaft der Erde-angelsächsisch. Das deutsche Element ein gutes Ferment, es versteht
nicht zu herrschen. Die Herrschaft in Europa ist nur deshalb deutsch, weil es mit ermüdeten greisen Völkern zu
thun hat, es ist seine Barbarei, seine verzögerte Cultur, die die Macht giebt.
Frankreich voran in der Cultur, Zeichen des Verfalls Europa’s. Rußland muß Herr Europas und Asiens werden-
es muß colonisiren und China und Indien gewinnen. Europa als das Griechenland unter der Herrschaft Roms.
Europa also zu fassen als Cultur-Centrum: die nationalen Thorheiten sollen uns nicht blind machen, daß in der
höheren Region bereits eine fortwährende gegenseitige Abhängigkeit besteht. Frankreich und die deutsche
Philosophie. R. Wagner von 1830-50 und Paris. Goethe und Griechenland. Alles strebt nach einer Synthese
der europäischen Vergangenheit in höchsten geistigen Typen - - - -
eine Art Mitte, welche das Krankhafte an jeder Nation (z. B. die wissenschaftliche Hysterie der Pariser) ablehnt.
Die Gewalt ist einmal getheilt zwischen Slaven und Angelsachsen. Der geistige Einfluß könnte in den Händen
des typischen Europäers sein" (Nietzsche, Nachlass)
