Nietzsche // Master vs Slave Morality

Friedrich Nietzsche introduced his notions of Slave morality and Master morality and proposed that the interaction of the two encapsulated all human morality.

The problem with your videos is the sound, specifically, the volume. I think your content is interesting, but the sound should be louder. Greetings!

But there is great pretense in characterizing the genealogy of morality in this way. This is because the fundamental problem in human relations is not a disagreement of values and desires between a few powerful men and the rest of mankind. The real fundamental problem in human relations is the disagreements of values and desires between all men of every kind-- weak versus weak, and strong versus strong. In fact, if the powerful encounters the weak, there will not be much of a disagreement for very long, because the strong will simply overpower the weak -- cowing them, subjugating them, or destroying them -- as happens in the animal world. In the world of men, disagreements of values and desires lead to prolonged violence, fights, and wars because most of the disagreements occur between men (tribes, factions, nations) of more-or-less equal strength, and it is precisely these prolonged states of violence between more-or-less equals in strength that are destructive to the progress of civilization, hence morality was invented -- as in 'love thy neighbor', 'do not commit adultery', and other moral values and precepts that the Ten Commandments, for example, much later formalized in writing. Steal a powerful man's wife, and he will quickly kill you, and few, if any, will feel themselves strong enough to avenge you against this powerful man, therefore, the matter is quickly over! But steal a man's wife of more-or-less equal strength as your own, and now you have a war, because even if he kills you, your family and friends will feel themselves powerful enough to avenge you, and his friends and family will do the same ! Morality arises as an attempt to prevent, as much as possible, these prolonged states of war between more-or-less equals that are destructive to civilization and it's progress. Hobbes, not Nietzsche, understands the fundamental nature of man.
In fact, I would even go so far as to say that Morality was invented by the strong as another way of trying to end the violence and fights between the equals within their own tribes and kingdoms. This is because what powerful men want is more power and control, not endless strife and chaos! A powerful King, for example, might want to conquer a neighboring kingdom, but he can't do that while the people in his own kingdom are fighting among themselves. Powerful men want order -- hence laws, police forces, courts, and morality were invented by the strong to exert more control over the weak !
