PROPHECY OF NIETZSCHE - WHAT DO YOU KNOW AND THINK - THREAD
So, I recently heard that Nietzsche predicted what we are seeing now.
- After Nietzsche proclaimed that God is dead ( rise of atheism and rise of intellectuals like Karl Marx), Nietzsche predicted that as a result of the different schools of philosophy, in the 20th century millions of people will die ( aka Communism and Fascism - battle of ideologies).
- Nietzsche calls this the Crisis of Nihilism and he predicted that we will face that in the 21 century, when it will be finally resolved.
Heard that from Jordan Peterson and here's some link : https://attackthesystem.com/the-nietzschean-prophecies/
- So, are non-affiliated people like Trump (who, even though ran as a republican, does not have republican policies) the beginning of the end of nihilism ( and of cultural marxism and others) ? Is this what Nietzsche predicted ? Are we entering a new era ?
- YOUR THOUGHTS
These things are less important than Neetschee thought they would be;
The masses of people have more influence on politics and society than ever before, and their choices are continuously of the lowest levels of discourse and thought.
The common person is at the same time more ignorant and more influential than any philosopher of previous centuries could predict.
The masses aren't atheist or nihilistic so much as they are brainless. So instead of a nihilistic crisis, imagine instead a world without thought.

I think Nietzsche new that Christianity was a mistake. Mainly - at it's core it's not european. The values are not european and he thought it made us weak. What he basically realised is that we need to return to european thought and values and for that process to take place some time would be needed.

Trump is more of a centrist, since he swings left on some issues... like abortion. The only reason he didn't run as a democrat is because the democratic party is now filled with crybaby SJWs and he knew it was rigged in Hillary's favour.
