We can in our subjective opinion define an action by being good, bad or inconsequential, but if you ever come to find yourself in the full force of your base emotions- hatred, fear, joy, sorrow and hope. |
I'm not sure I follow you. Could you give some concrete examples of what exactly you're talking about?

Well, I'm not opposing rationality and emotion. I don't think you can do that.

Dissapointing you dont like nietzsche, Lira- guy was good as despite being incredibly misunderstood |
I'm a bit short of time this week and we can revisit this discussion later, but I really can't stomach his style and, even when I can, I think his best ideas were better developed by Kierkegaard (regarding individualism, herd instinct, and this sort of thing) and/or James (perspectivalism, ideas about truth and morality, and so on).

I think they really construct something though which is the problem with most so-called subjective philosophy: Nietzsche's the best just because he knows when to stop
Existentialists (what i call the everyman's Nietzsche ) were retarded cause they say we're entirely free, then they start imposing all these laws, making the whole thing no different than the Kantian idealism... Nietzsche's one of the only guys who stand for relativism/individuallism and don't write paradoxes into their own theses.. classic liberal bullshit: We're all free.... to do these reallly specific things and never stray from them no matter what
since you're more a linguist I can see how you would love or hate nietzsche though: he was one Hyperbolic, aphoristic machine!
anyways, another time, another time!
