you can be a nietzschean socialist. nietzsche's qualms with socialism was a product of his time. shit like "redistribution" and "welfare" were the prevailing socialist ideas of the time.

compare that to blanqui or sorellian socialism. i think nietzsche would consider lenin to be a "higher man".

lenin was totally a true believer, but he went against some marxist principles for his attempt at socialism.

i consider myself an anti-popular socialist, and it's thoroughly compatible with my nietzschean worldview. if my understanding of nietzsche is correct he wanted a revaluation of values and no more slaves to be produced and the overman to be created. I think the capitalist mode of production necessarily creates more slavery and in a society of overmen they would obviously be in control of their labor power.

Nietzsche was against both the modern state and collective communes. They're not really compatible to anyone with a working understanding of Nietzsche.

the state is a means to an end. his criticism of the state is that the state is saying shit like "I THE STATE AM THE PEOPLE", but if the ruling body recognized itself as a completely separate entity and had no desire to appeal to popular sentiment but rather assert it's will on to the masses through policy and education then I don't see any reason why nietzsche would be against it.

every philosopher would like to be in a position where they are able to rule

i am for patriotism because I recognize the necessity of myth in riling up peoples sentiments and keeping them united under a common cause.
i am not a nationalist in the sense that I do not have chauvinist tendencies and i generally oppose such sentiment especially in europe, so I definitely agree with nietzsche's views on nationalism.

i would place myself in the left wing of italian fascism, the left wing I cannot stress enough because fascism was not a monoculture and varied from city to city in italy and the fact that there were so many differing opinions of what fascism was explains the contemporary inability of people to classify it. mussolini himself was greatly influenced by stirner and nietzsche and was far more true to nietzsche than hitler, who I doubt even read nietzsche.

remember, fascism was not a mass movement, but revolutionary militants who sought to structure society in their vision.

>>18923482
socialism is a mode of economic organization. aristocracy is a title. there is no reason for aristocratic radicals to not want to implement socialism.

>>18923498
yes but the goal of these new masters is to educate and breed their slaves better in order to set them free. whereas capitalist mode of production can only survive on the creation of new slaves.

True, but there's also no reason to care about it either, except as a means to an end.

>> No.18923664

>>18923615
because they want to? or more specifically because *I* want to. I am not saying it's some moral imperative or whatever, or that slavery is some great moral error, only that I don't want to live or want my children to live surrounded by slaves. To me it is unpleasant.
>>18923635
i am the aristocratic radical in question, and I care about it. again, socialism is a mode of economic organization. remember that work can be very fulfilling and even fun if it is the right kind of work. to take away work from a man who loves it one would have to kill him.

now you are telling me in an overman society, overmen would not be in control of their labor?

Doesn't sound like an overman thing to say or believe. You can be in favor of socialism if you want, I just fail to see how it is compatible with Nietzsche's express views, especially his endorsing of slavery.

After winning the Iron Cross during WWI as an infantry commander, Naumann founded the League of National German Jews. The League's proposal to deal with the Jewish question was the complete assimilation of Jews into Jewish culture.

He once had an argument with Herman Goering about whether NSDAP were anti-semetic in practice. Goering tried to enlist Naumann to address international protests against Nazi antisemitism by saying that no such thing took place. Naumann, who argued that antisemitism was a necessary component of jewish assimilation, declined.

In 1935 Naumann was arrested by the Gastapo and imprisoned in the Sachsenhausen concentration camp on charges of "extreme patriotism." He was released a few weeks later.
