>Thus Spoke Zarathustra is pseudoprophetic
>The misery of a whole nation, he says, is of less importance than the
suffering of a great individual: "The misfortunes of all these small folk do not together
constitute a sum-total, except in the feelings of mighty men."
>"he says in Beyond Good and Evil, where he adds
that we should think of women as property, as Orientals do. The whole of his abuse of women is
offered as self-evident truth; it is not backed up by evidence from history or from his own
experience, which, so far as women were concerned, was almost confined to his sister."

You guys love to hate him, but Russell's description of Nietzsche is actually pretty good. A true incel idol for sure

Russell was my introduction to philosophy and for that i am eternally endebted to him. that being said, apart from his overly pedantic and dry style of writing which only loossens up once in a while through a pinch of equally dry humor. i fail see anything unworthy when it comes to his philosophical works. politically speaking i would accept your reproach but in terms of his writing on other subjects, disregard the latent ideology in them and you get a sharp mind with the prose to back it up.

>there's no proof that someone's subjective ideal is right or wrong
Gee, Russell, you don't say. Let me guess, at the same time you believe your utilitarianism is somehow "self-evident" or objective despite suffering from the same flaw. Just another idiot who went well under the wings of the soaring Nietzsche.

Not him but the same applies to for example Kant. I often wonder how much we can truly vindicate their ratiocination when, in some areas, they have so clearly been unreasonable.

Reminder that Russel was a literal and unironic cuck in an open relationship who eventually lost his shit when his wife became pregnant by another man.

His views on pretty much everything outside of mathematics are notoriously bad for a reason, he was a fag.

The long tears
Of the violins
Of Autumn
Wound my heart
With a languor
Monotonous

Lost my breath
An white, when
Rings the hour
I remember
The old days
And I cry those tears;

And I go away,
Always in a bad way,
That takes me
Over, yonder,
As would a
Dead leaf.
