Right, so we are supposed to dismiss Nietzche as a petit bourgeois rebel. Do you think that MAYBE just MAYBE your analysis is a LITTLE lacking in nuance, Charles?

CB: Actually, Thomas, I first started thinking that of Nietzsche at least 35 years ago. In that time , everything knew I have read in and of him has made that seem more true. So, I don't dismiss him. I want to warn people about him.
Don't you think MAYBE he might actually be a philistine elistist , just like he seems, a joke on people? Did you ever even consider that ?
Now "nuance" is a cute word. So, why don't you just say what nuance makes you think he is not a petit bourgeois snob ? MAYBE !
