Why does everyone get so intensely bent out of shape about the

Because it's a shitty meme

He founded the French school of obfuscating charlatanism.

that started witk kant
how the fuck is nietzsche obfuscating
the only people who misinterpret his work are 1: literal retards, 2: faggots who didn't read all his works
Nietzsche is not a philosopher in the traditional sense, he doesn't offer a system, his works don't have a full circular meaning

>>9548841
so everyone is either a literal retard or a faggot that hasn't read him, because, like OP says, no one ever agrees on him?

I've read a good deal of philosophy now. I still find it strange that philosophy needs an interpretation, isn't it supposed to be THE interpretation?

>no one ever agrees on him?
Thats not true you fucking idiot, what you see is people discussing certain points of his thought
Literally happens with every philosopher, even every literary work

Lurk more. My posts elongating passages of Nietzsche have always received replies of positive acknowledgement and I have been posting here since late 2010 or so.

Nietzsche isn't nearly as original as most people today give him credit for. His "Übermensch" is lifted straight out of Emerson's writings about "great men", the "death of God" was a pretty common sentiment in the late 19th century, and his genealogical analysis of Christianity is very shallow.

>>9548956
so?

>>9548956
Nietzsche's Overman and overall philosophy is a lot more complex than what Emerson, or any of his contemporaries, ever said.

>>9548917
this was a really depressing post

>>9548962
Sounds like you're projecting.

>>9548813
His writing does not try to be clear and consistent, and so it leads many people to take what he is saying in multiple ways. Its bad philosophy.

inb4 some continental fag comes in trying to rescue him. Why dont you try to explain his ideas of the body's organs competing against one another?

Same reason they do with Stirner:

instead of embracing the ideas put forth, they try to assimilate the ideologies into their prior ideas of right/wrong.
