Everything you know about Friedrich Nietzsche is wrong

Описание: Friedrich Nietzsche is one of the most quoted thinkers in Western history. He is also one of the most consistently, almost impressively misrepresented. The version of Nietzsche that exists in popular culture — the atheist who celebrated the death of God, the proto-Nazi who invented a master race philosophy, the nihilist who believed nothing matters, the advocate for domination of the weak — is not just simplified. It is fabricated.
This video goes through the five biggest misconceptions about Nietzsche, where each one came from, and what he actually said. The gap between the popular version and the real one is not a matter of nuance or academic hair-splitting. It is a near-total reversal. And understanding why that reversal happened — who built it, how, and why it stuck — is as interesting as the philosophy itself.
We cover the full context of "God is dead" and why it is a diagnosis of civilizational crisis, not an atheist victory lap. We cover what the Übermensch actually means and why the Nazis were its precise opposite.
