>nietzsche is the most popular philosopher today
anon, you can't honestly believe this? look at the state of the world and then tell me how he's the most popular philosopher

why is it so hard for people to realize what a radical thinker nietzsche was? he was the most fierce critique of liberal bourgeois ideals, he looked down on egalitarianism with pure contempt. given the treatment jordan peterson got from his publishing house recently, you can be assured that nietzsche would never have been published today in the first place. he would have been canceled from society, named public enemy number one

people don't care, they just think going to the gym is going to make them the next ubermensch or something and they tell themselves that "god is dead" over and over so as not to think about it
people don't know they have ideals

sad but true. nietzsches thoughts should be wrestled with and if you haven't faced the abyss as a result, you never understood nietzsche to begin with

Most don't go past the surface level of some quotes and usually missinterpret them, for example all the edgy teens think Nietzsche was a nihilist which is the exact opposite of what he was
The ammount of people who actually read him and understood what he said is much smaller and the ammount of people who did the same for lesser known ones is even smaller.
