    Nietche actually was counterculture, not anti religious, he did criticize religion but he also criticized other things pretty equally, and Nietche’s works weren’t nihilistic until the third reich misused Nietche’s teachings and made them seem nihilistic. Great reaction though, you took the time for the lines.

      Wasn't it Nietches sister who was the main reason why his teaching's got misused if I remember correctly Nietche himself would have absolutely hated the Nazis

    Wu is also the name of the kingdom Sun Tzu fought for.
    Also, most people don’t realize how short The Art of War is. It’s not the massive tome people envision. Plus it was written as a poem

      Yea it's intentionally short, as it's written for rulers who are too dumb for warfare, easier to remember the content that way. It's definitely an interesting read.

    I always liked the Tao of Pooh reference, I forget who wrote that book but it's sort of an explanation of Taoism using the characters of Winnie the Pooh. I remember a friend of mine reading it in school, I never got around to it though.

  • @Still-Struggling
    @Still-Struggling 4 года назад +24

    Typical Nihilism is defined as the belief that life has no intrinsic meaning, or value. However there are multiple forms of nihilism. What you described is religious nihilism. Or in other words, atheism.

    • @FallingGalaxy
      @FallingGalaxy 3 года назад +2

      As an atheist, I agree. Meaning is something people decide for themselves and their own lives, creating their own meanings. Even those who have decided their meaning of life is decided by some outside source like a god, they are still the ones driving however they live. (Pretty much always deciding their god shares the morals and lack of morals they have, disliking things they dislike, liking things they like, no matter what their holy books actually say.)

  • @Ghettofinger
    @Ghettofinger 3 года назад +1

    They should have said, "I'm coming DOWN from the Acropolis". Because, according to Plato, Socrates, as a philosopher, lives within the Realm of the Sun, the Realm of Knowledge. His duty as a philosopher is to come "Down" from the Realm of the Sun, beyond the divided line, and educate the demos (people). This is also symbiotic, as it keeps the philosopher from indulging his ego as well. This would also reference the first line from The Republic by Plato, which is in the perspective of Socrates, "I walked down to the Piraeus yesterday with Glaucon." There you can see his saying he is walking "Down" to Piraeus, which the demos reside. Piraeus was one of the primary ports of commerce for Athens. It is in The Republic, but much later on, where Plato, in the perspective of Socrates, writes about the Realm of Forms. That would have been a start that went astronomically deep.

    The 'beating your submissive asses' line was also because Voltaire was from a time when the French aristocracy was exploring libertine excess.
