How did the Nazis manage to misread Nietzsche so badly? He's

Niezsche's sister was an antisemite nationalist and eventual Nazi in charge of his literary estate and systematically misrepresented him in the volumes published under her "editorship"

You mean her husband.

>>9693666
Everybody misreads Nietzsche.

>>9693666
I'd say they read him pretty well, except for nationalism and collectivism in general. But it's hard to build a mass movement based on aristocracy.

>>9693698
both of them, but he wasn't the one in charge of N's estate
also he killed himself the year Nietzsche collapsed, so he wasn't even alive to manipulate the corpus
no doubt he influenced Elisabeth's ideology, though

i think people keep applying modern standards to the past and never actually engage with the prevaling thoughts patterns of the time. call it a social trend a collective unconscious whatever,fact is ideas and mentalities are contagious but beside the point right now. anyway, jewish/german relations were long complicated, if gitler didnt, someone would have.

>>9693666
Pretty sure they didn't care, they just took a facet of somewhat known works to bolster their own ideology. Also Nietzsche is so often vague as fuck and open to interpretation.
