Friedrich Nietzsche: The Warning Voice to the West - Documentary

[@lynnedwyer6716]

At 6:14 Freddy has three hands. Writing his first plays. A gifted child indeed. He needed all the hands he could use.

[@SuperDaddyaddy]

I've laughed😂

[@melchizedekjr]

I love the many pictures with 6 fingers and the young boy with the mustache.

[@MasterofStories25]

Glad you enjoyed the details! Those unique visuals definitely add an interesting touch and make the video stand out. Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts

[@cynthiastandley5742]

And the 3 hands at 6:18. The voice is nice though.

[@carolynyanik2197]

And 3 hands.

[@dorocaruso754]

I watched this documentary to the end and it is Excellent! Thank you for posting it! The analysis in the conclusion was solid and revealing to the true life of Nietzsche and his sister Elizabeth and connection to Nazi distortion. Very well done! Thanks

[@norm2322]

As intellectually incredible as Nietzsche was, his physical attribute of having three arms is rarely mentioned.

[@GMAGini]

Multiple mispronunciations are very distracting. Otherwise, this was an interesting podcast.

[@Ben_Elliot]

Thanks for your feedback. Working to make pronunciations better in upcoming videos.

[@jeffkey4745]

Happy Birthday, Sir. It's also mine today. We share it with Michel Foucault as well. "I understand you."

[@jasonblanton5229]

Happy Birthday to you both! As it is mine, as well!

[@MasterofStories25]

Happy Birthday! That's amazing that you share it with both Foucault and the person you admire. What a great connection to celebrate with such influential minds!

[@theother1406]

It's clear that the art photos for David Bowie's album "HEATHEN" was inspired by these photos.

[@jeffkey4745]

Is the voice also AI generated? Sort of distracting how it will pronounce Wagner's name correctly and then mispronounce it in the next sentencde. Can you fix that?

[@Ben_Elliot]

Yes it is, I'm currently working on a tool to embed my real voice. Hopefully, it won't be long before I have it figured out. Thank you for pointing that out 👍.

[@alexstetson2397]

I'm so glad I stumbled upon your channel, great work!

"The story of Nietzsche is truly fascinating, but did he completely reject Christian morality, or was he trying to redefine it in a new way? I would love to hear more perspectives on this."

[@kevintewey1157]

Which specific " christian" & Did he ever know Russian oryhodox?

[@leolacasse6278]

It was a sad life. He had much to work through in rigid European societies, where Christianity was used as a prison to contain individuals. There wasn't much in his contribution for him personally. How much better it would have been for him if he could only have gotten laid once in a while?

[@ultrastandphoenix1883]

[@ericwolf7703]

He loved his sister

Today I decided to watch your video. I don't like to watch videos with more than 30 minutes, but as I'm still puzzled with Nietzsche, I gave it a chance. It was a good decision. I think Nietzsche is a very confuse reading. I already read "Beyond Good and Evil" and I'm reading "Thus spoke Zarathustra". The second is easier to read. The first, in the other hand, is terribly confuse. It seems that he just make complaints about minor things he didn't like about some people. It doesn't offer any explanation why people are so wrong in his view. Also, it mixes tons of references that we cannot know its relevance to the topic. Maybe I'm just illiterate. Maybe, I started by the wrong book. I don't know. Anyway, it seems that he has lots of resentments and his ideas are full of it. After listening to your analysis of "Ecce Homo", I believe I should start reading Nietzsche by this book. But one thing bugs me: how can you be so sure that he was being "sarcastic" or not so serious about his views and titles used in this book (Ecce Homo)? Many people make bold statements about Nietzsche, as if they knew, somehow, how was his train of thought. What if someone has a diametrically different "perception" about him? I think interpretation is a "bitch", because we will never know if our interpretation is correct or not. After all, we don't reside in other people's mind, right? This reminds me of the controversy around the lyrics of "Hotel California": all interpretations were wrong, and the only one right was that of the writer/musician. Also, how to read a text without taking the words for its face value? Why someone could use sarcasm in written text, if it is impossible (or almost) to identify it, unless you know the writer profoundly? Isn't it stupid to use such mechanisms in a written text, specially if it was supposed to be read in the distant future? In the end, I think Nietzsche was a very "needy" person. Maybe he wanted to be the Übermensch itself, but it was impossible, due to his debilitated health. Maybe this philosophy is of a men who saw himself as always right, which is incompatible with the idea of being a philosopher, right? I imagine that being a philosopher is to never being right, because you should question, first and foremost, oneself. (sorry if my writing seems confuse, but English is not my mother language)

[@miriamrussell9812]

Glad to listen and be informed of this important philosophy. I especially admire his view of Christianity.

[@HostileButHonourable]

The AI voice is grating.The AI imagery is tacky and 'plastic'.

[@dorocaruso754]

If God is Dead, who took his pace? Hopelessness and purposelessness in life? Nihilism

[@antoinepimentel1309]

IA images in a supposed historical documentary should not be a practice… Sad.

[@antoinepimentel1309]

Pursuing on this qualitative path, and the only audience you will have will be IA itself..

[@michelerousseau.]

Did he like anyone? Asking for a friend.

[@MegaLivingIt]

I believe you pronounce his father's name "Loodwig", and it even sounds nicer too.

[@TheWhitehiker]

Who is this woman who keeps appearing along with N. in his study? Sister, lover, mother?

[@GenX1964]

Which class is Neitzsche? Based on his life's struggles one could argue slave. And if Neitzsche was in fact slave doesn't that make his body of work a perfect example of the triumph of the human spirit- something he says doesn't exist?

[@markhogan7781]

A yes, a no, a straight line, a goal. Words to overcome the disease of the West. Resentment.

[@christineStill-v3l]

Please decide on one pronunciation for Wagner; it is VOG-ner.

[@Ben_Elliot]

Thanks for the feedback. I have worked on the pronunciations

[@carlkuss]

The "photos" are lovely But are they fake? AI?

[@carlkuss]

I don´t mean to deliver a scorched earth judgement over this documentary. It is still quite good. It helps me to have sympathy for Nietzsche. I find this welcome, because where I come from Nietzsche is too easily dismissed as an evil man, a raving lunatic. He is too easily made an example of and whisked away by people who are over hasty in their search for a dumbed down type of Christian apologetics, an apologetics which is in fact counterproductive. The use of artificial intelligence does not mean that no work went into the production of this video. Once you realize that the voice is artificial, it ceases to be grating.

[@andrewfernandez7410]

The thumbnail looks like Bill Hader

[@andrewbenjamin6059]

Interesting biography of a man that had a profound impact upon western civilization. It seems from watching this, that a fellow deemed by some to be highly intelligent, decided that concepts like humility and considering the needs of others as being as significant as one's own, contribute to a "slave morality" that evidently still persists in a new "era of rationalism" that N. believed he was ushering in, given there are around 2.4 billion people around the globe who still express an allegiance to the teachings of Jesus. While you, Mr. Nietzsche, either provided or further amplified, a philosophical basis for notions expressed in Mein Kamph and who knows in how many other genocidal dictator's value systems, including the impotent, yet still insufferable, mindsets of elites in Hollywood just for starters. It makes sense to me, Mr. N., why you and at least one of your practicing sympaticos of the past century, both experienced psychotic breakdowns.

[@IreneMVera]

The robotic narration is awful!

[@lindahoganson8721]

Turn off comments.

[@robertbentley3589]

Why? You do know you don't have to read them?

[@neilnash525]

His problem with Chrisianity was the slavishness, not the total lack of logic. Hmm

[@Bcarefulof]

How, with age, views change.

[@GSXK4]

This entire AI production kinda sucks. We definitely need skilled people doing these things.

[@phelpsmore7757]

Cartoons, and more cartoons

[@TheWhitehiker]

Please pronounce Wagner's name right.

[@larryleehensel1016]

Dude, you’ve GOT to be careful of your pronunciations. ESPECIALLY the first name of Nietzsche. I couldn’t listen after 10 minutes.

[@Ben_Elliot]

Thanks for the feedback. I've fixed the pronunciations for subsequent videos.

[@leonarddolha3760]

Germans now think they are from Athens?

[@TashaVice]

Wow! I wonder if having three arms contributed to your migraines.
