I'd argue, as per Nietzsche (and I thought so before ever knowing Nietzsche), that the loss of virtue and inversion of values comes from Christianity.
I don't want to speculate about what caused what historically, but Christianity itself is an inversion of intuitive values
That is evidently true
I'd say that weird feeling is what started to make me question my Protestant faith. It was always weird that Christianity seemed to champion the weak so much, and feelings of guilt and never pride.
It's like wanting to feel sick all the time and being happy about it.
Or feeling "virtuous" about it.
Yeah
It's sick
The hoops people jump through to justify it are ridiculous
Look at it honestly, and it is clearly sick
To Hitler's credit he did want it gone over time
Can't really misquote this, but some French liberal will tell us how we are misinterpreting this:
```Here we are among Jews: this is the first thing to be borne in mind if we are not to lose the thread of the matter. This positive genius for conjuring up a delusion of personal “holiness” unmatched anywhere else, either in books or by men; this elevation of fraud in word and attitude to the level of an art— all this is not an accident due to the chance talents of an individual, or to any violation of nature. The thing responsible is race. The whole of Judaism appears in Christianity as the art of concocting holy lies, and there, after many centuries of earnest Jewish training and hard practice of Jewish technic, the business comes to the stage of mastery. The Christian, that ultima ratio of lying, is the Jew all over again— he is threefold the Jew...```

I will only read pre WW2 translations of Nietzsche
Leftists try to dilute his meaning
This one is a 1920 translation.
It is interesting that they chose that strategy instead of the usual shit flinging
Translation by H.L. Mencken
Published 1920
It would be so easy to condemn him as a white cis male racist
I think it is because of his a-morality, there is too much they can use to their advantage too
for deconstruction and revolutionary purposes
What the hell does "cis" mean?
I have not been indoctrinated , so, many of those terms are obscure to me.
It means normal with regard to gender
oh
without any disorder
or issue
so, that is bad?
I was using leftist speech
i know i know
I mean, to them.
It's privileged
It's bad like white is bad
or male
haha
Or being outside of a wheelchair
kill them all
ah no, I mean, argue-with-them all
