    As they say, one must choose one's enemies wisely. Joy, according to Nietzsche, is a byproduct of a heightened sense of power. For his enemies act as resistance and power always seeks what resists it. We should love our enemies for the challenge they provide us; they afford us suffering and thereby meaning. A poorly chosen enemy, one that does not challenge us, decreases our joy. It's interesting how Nietzsche affirms opposition and uses it as an opportunity to elevate. This Christian trope in Nietzsche's hands becomes ennobling. How ennobling is Communism? How ennobling is Woke ideology? Have they chosen their enemies wisely?
