>>	Anonymous Mon Oct 30 22:14:26 2023 No.22660190 >>22659983 It is true that Nietzsche inherits a lot from Spinoza's psychology (which is the only thing worthy in his Ethics), but still surpasses him due to the improvements on Darwin he makes, advancing a lot of what Freud would posit later.

He was based as fuck when it came to that
>changed his name to the Latin version after getting kicked out
>even before the kicking he decided to not inherit his father's debt by settling the matter with secular Dutch courts because by their laws he was still underage, meaning his Jewish community had to pay the debt and not him (Jews were required to settle all maters internally according to religious law, which Spinoza ignored) which pissed them off greatly
>even after stripping him of tribesman membership they were so full of seethe as to hire an assassin to kill him, and after the assassin failed to kill him Spinoza still wore the slashed robe unpatched to further annoy them
>once some other relative died his sister tired to jew him out of inheritance claiming that as he's no longer a tribesmen she should claim its entirety, after which Spinoza once again took the case to Dutch courts, won the case, and gave his full inheritance to the sister voluntarily
>denied numerous donations from wealthy merchants and aristocrats wanting to support him even when there was no catch involved because he was afraid money would corrupt him, and by own admission lived paycheck to paycheck as a lens grinder
Overall smug & God/Nature-pilled as fuck

>only thing worthy
Ftmp the Ethics *is* a psychology (I'd hate to call it proto-, because that would assume later, better instances-- and there are none) but I'd argue that despite a few 'philosophical' problems, there's no more serviceable epistemology going up to now.

A substantial part of it is metaphysics though anyway. But I don't think PSR based epistemology is something to be put in the terms you ascribe to it, it is a product of its time, the rising of mechanicist sciences, which Descartes was also moved by. His metaphysics suffer from scandalous problems (like the gap he cannot overcome about infinite and finite modes).
