Nietzsche: Only Weak People Protest

#nietzsche #philosophy #mindovermatrix

[ShangaelThunda]

Protests are for people that are afraid of warfare.

Protests are for people that are afraid to actually put their lives on the line, in order to change what they want.

A protest is nothing more than begging your oppressors to stop oppressing you.

Protesters are slaves who don't want to end their slavery, they just want to make it a little bit more comfortable.

Protesters are slaves that don't want to overthrow their masters, they just want nicer masters.

Protesters are people who want a revolution, without the actual revolution.

Weakness Incarnate.

[Laotzu.Goldbug]

The unfortunate reality is that the world is more complicated than this. Inefficient protest, performative protest, protest that is long past the point when it's going to work is definitely a sign of weakness, but protest in and of itself is a useful tool, just as a lawsuit, or a war. Each have their place, and wisdom is knowing when they do and do not work, and using them appropriately, rather than becoming emotionally attached to any one of them.

I would correct that. Only weak people comply with the masses. If the mass is playing the big game of destruction, exploitation and total alienation from what is healthy and natural, which it is, to protest is a much stronger act than to obey. Nietzsche spoke a lot about this in regard to Christianity and slave morality. And as the German author Bertolt Brecht has put it: 'Where justice becomes injustice, resistance becomes a duty.'

"If I once wrote the word 'untimely' on my books, how much youth, inexperience, peculiarity that word expressed! Today I realise it was precisely this kind of complaint, enthusiasm and dissatisfaction that made me one of the most modern of the modern." - Late Notebooks

[LibertarianLeninistRants]

I think he should read a book by Jonas Čeika called "How to philosophize with a hammer and sickle". Its a book comparing Nietzsche and Marx, where they agreed and where they disagreed. And actually there is more agreement than expected

I've never protested. Does that necessary make me not weak?

You need to go on the Nietzsche podcast!

Asking nicely, What are the name of the video clips in this video?

[blaze]

Well, if that's so, are people who protest in Iran weak? Are the women who are at the risk of a death sentence just by not complying to the strict sheria law that nontheless protest for their rights - weak? Are those who have been killed in the protests and those who will be executed - weak?

Nietzsche was an unreasonable ideological extremist who had popular views among those who also don't like the compromises inherent within a social contract among citizens in society. You need a background in philosophy and bullshit to try and make him sound reasonable instead of indulgent and of poor objective self awareness, and by extension philosophic rigor.

Individualism will never beat Collectivism. Jordan Peterson is one of the funniest people I know. He preaches non-identitu and individualism to white christians and then preaches the opposite to the Christ killers. He is such a good crier tho 😂
