`It is on the basis of this analysis that Christian morality is inherently a form of slave morality’s ressentiment towards the masters, and provides an impotent form of revenge in providing the moral foundation for those of the underclass to pass judgement on those of the upper. The embrace of the downtrodden, poor, oppressed, passive, and meek as those of true moral character, coupled with a denial of wealth, power, strength, self-assertion, and dominance as a moral failing is pervasive throughout the Christian New Testament. The very center of the religion’s iconography, Jesus Christ, a physical manifestation of God upon this Earth as his ‘son’, helps to show this. He is a man borne from low status, had every ‘virtue’ of slave morality thrust upon him by his destiny, and overcame the ruling Romans to return to Heaven, that next life his followers and followers of slave morality dream of. In the Christian mythos, during his life, he rebuked the powerful and wealthy, he embraced the poor, sickly, and oppressed, and he did all of this while maintaining a lifestyle of a Roman underclassman. It is my belief that Christianity’s major value proposition from a perspective of utility is that it provides an underclass with a moral foundation that spiritually and psychologically sustains a ‘slave’ class, be it racial, sexual, economic, etc, under such a burden. It acts as a lever does, reducing the weight associated with life as an underclassman of various sorts.`

Author of this makes a mistake himself

"re-branding the lack of ability to have a good life as an active choice"

He makes a same value statement

"good life"

I mean "value" in a sense of a pretense of standards

This was a danger of Nietzsche's philosophy

TLDR that shit nigger

I am starting to get a migraine so I am definitely not reading all that

I know what master/slave morality is already

@Deleted User 57835c2c that's the TLDR. You should read the whole post. It's one of the best posts on the internet.

It's overconfident certainity in believing how only enjoyment of fruits of life mean a "good" life

PM me and I will read it later

While there perfectly exist individuals to whom these same fruits are nothing but a basic precondition

the thing master/slave morality talk fucks up is that while slave morality is always universalist and wrong, there are many possible master moralities and not all of them are equally good

that's what I have explored in detail and not many else have

Speaking of best posts on the internet that you should read and the free market, this one is a must read too: http://www.amerika.org/politics/leftism-is-a-business/

@Deleted User 57835c2c Again with the GOOD for who

For an Aristocrat, wealth was a basic precondition, for a trader, it was a sign of virtue and "success" in life itself

That is the whole purpose of master morality. It's not good for everyone.

good for nordic aryan brahmins

That's why a society conceived by a trader considers every kind of economic prospect or undertaking a good thing, no matter how ville

a society conceived by a vaishya runs into the problems prophecied in the vedas, yes

none of this shit is new, it's thousands of years old

Well, that's where Nietzsche didn't graduate

have you read books other than neechuh?

He didn't understand that for some people, a meal is nothing buta basic precondition for life, while for others, it's an end goal of everything

we call those "italians"

He didn't understand that people are not equal?

Italians in Italy itself while we are at it, eat quite basic and simple cuisine

http://easo.org/media-portal/country-spotlight/obesity-in-italy/

Although Italy’s obesity problem might be considered mild in comparison to many of its neighbouring constituents (the country boasts one of the lowest adulthood obesity rates in Europe [approximately 10% of the population]), childhood obesity rates are notoriously considered one of the highest (36% for boys and 34% for girls)1. In addition, WHO projections forewarn that by 2030 rising prevalence could see disease rates nearly double for certain populations.

Considering who are the young in Italy, it doesn't surprise me

make-a me a pizza

I am starting to think the fictional society portrayed in shinsekai yori really was not so bad

I'd make a few key modifications but the basis of it was generally good

do you still think you're a christian exilarch

I am a mormon

a brigham young style mormon

devolved you are mormon still, right?

yeah
