Nietzsche vs Dostoevsky: Goodness vs Greatness

In this video, I compare Dostoesvky with Nietzsche by looking at their lives, careers, writings and philosophies. Who offers a better solution to the problem of nihilism? Is it possible that they complement each other? Who is the masculine father and who is the feminine mother among the two? But first let me answer how their background shaped their views.

    Nietzsche says that it is irrelevant for a human's mind. It is unprofitable. Greatness for Nietzsche is overstepping the human's mind by seeming irrelevant in people's eyes. Nietzsche was a dreamer yet very realistic in his thoughts. He wanted to absorb the world and analyse it as the whole. But we are not yet ready for this. We are staying on the bridge of evolution and seems like the finish line is around the many corners. But anyway Dostoevsky's philosophy makes me thinking as much as Nietzsche does.

    There is a distinct difference, however, between goodness and greatness. Goodness can merely be emulated, where greatness is related to heroics. The 'hero' outlives his years in the minds and hearts of whom he has affected, and is largely what Nietzsche is searching for in his philosophical quest.

    The most interesting thing about this is, in 26:18, Nietzsche's philosophy has a striking similarity to Raskolnikov's in Dostoevsky's book "Crime and Punishment" where he talks to Petrovich about his article "on crime" where he also separates human beings into two categories, and places the "Extraordinary" people above the rest, and compares them to Napoleon and Newton and so on. He says that these people have complete justification in their moral consciousness to stomp out the weak in order to achieve greatness for the rest of the population.

    What's particularly admirable about Nietzsche was how he managed to appreciate Dostoevsky and cling to his anti-Christian, anti-religious sentiment at the same time.

    I know The Idiot was first translated into German a couple of months before The Anti-Christ was published, and while I don't know when TBK was first translated into German, the first English translation was in 1912. So I would bet Nietzsche was either in his insane period at best, or was a corpse when TBK could have been read in a language he knew.

    I believe that people are always looking for conflict even if they don't realize it. If preventing conflicts then is impossible, the trick would be to keep the small conflicts going so they remain small. That's why I am a defender of free speech, even if that is not politically, or scientifically correct speec. At the moment I fear the existence of social bubbles that people are subconsciously yet actively creating around them. This is leading to growing calls to limit the free flowing of ideas. Ideas that differ from the most-commonly accepted ideas. When we stop discussing things we will eventually have no way to pick up a discussion again. It is fine when like-minded people gather and share information about topics that interest them, but it is dangerous if that group of people sees some entity as a common enemy or represents some form of evil themselves in the eyes of someone else. Nowadays it is easy to block people with different viewpoints from taking part in conversations and this leads to information getting filtered through an ideological lens. A filter managed by the people you follow, protecting you from harmful information before this information has a chance to reach you. The more activistic the nature of the topic is, the more sensitive people are when it comes to dealing with criticism. This makes people quicker to block others and more eager to look for a source of positive affirmation. People are quick to realize that more radical and outspoken statements will be more efficient in attracting positive affirmation, so people gradually start to use a harder tone when they express their opinions. At some point the moderate statements don't get any attention at all so people will stop posting them. All information that is circulating within a bubble at that point is coming from people who are subconsciously training eachother to believe radical ideas are good ideas. If every person lives in a bubble of like-minded people with increasingly radical ideas I don't see how society will deal with that. At some point people just won't understand anymore how others don't see what they are seeing.

    Very well interpretation, really loved how you used elements of masculinity and femininity here. Although, one thing I was curious (which was not a whole lot mentioned) was Dionysus and what Nietzsche thinks about passion. So, would like to know what's the most passionate character you have found in your journey as reader of fiction? 😀

It makes me cry just thinking of the suffering he endured in exile, and the light he found in our Lord God. For the love of God, don’t wait until your last moments to find Christ. The love of Jesus is so fulfilling that to go without it is like going without water.

    The conclusion is that greatness itself has its benefits in giving our best effort while being alive but requires ultimate sacrifice. Sometimes it translate for good or bad for those that surround us and that's a power that Nietzsche encourages. Dostoyevsky warning thats such pursuit must be follow with caution and with a great heart because alternative is hell and suffering but if its not achieved then its still is a worthy endeavor for the individual. Its a beautiful balance but for some men out there is what they are born and meant for. Every individual or group has its own version what its potential can be and must face the consequences. There's only action in life. Only action and then we are gone. Do what you must while being alive. God speed...❤

    Nietzsche said Dostoyevsky was the greatest find of his life, and the greatest psychologist ever. In Thus spake Zarathustra The pale warrior character in book one is modelled on Dostoyevsky. When Lou Salome rejected him he was unable to handle it and this was instrumental in his breakdown. Salome went on to become the Muse of Rilke

    “But thus I counsel you, my friends: Mistrust all in whom the impulse to punish is powerful. They are people of a low sort and stock; the hangmen and the bloodhound look out of their faces. Mistrust all who talk much of their justice! Verily, their souls lack more than honey. And when they call themselves the good and the just, do not forget that they would be pharisees, if only they had-power.” - Nietzsche I believe what you describe is someone who is infected with Ressentiment and not what Nietzsche promotes. I would think this is why Nietzsche would support someone pulling away from society into solitude in order to climb their own mountain. One can only hope to be great onto their own Free Spirit

    @@devinbradshaw9756 agreed. All I’m saying is that it is a slippery slope from what Nietzsche prescribed to what people will do. My problem isn’t that Nietzsche was wrong (not to say that I don’t disagree with some of his teachings, as I do). Maybe the way I phrased the comment was a bit off. What I meant is that it is very easy for one to interpret his teachings in such a wretched way. For example, the Nazis interpreted the Superman theory horribly - or was it his sisters fault for false translation? - and this led to some dire consequences. My problem is that it is too easy for someone to take it the wrong way. Granted, I don’t know too much about the Superman, as I just started reading his works, and the one book that I am reading of his is Twilight of the Idols. Maybe as I further venture into his books I’ll understand it better.

    I think that the real problem with the ubermench is that "creating your own values" thus "becoming God" is fundamentally impossible. Value and meaning are not created, they are discovered. Its also at the same time, less grandiose and inspiring than Christ, and also a loot more impersonal and fictitious. Nietzsche himself, someone who came pretty darn close to embodying his own ideal, was in the end left broken. His will completely crumbled as no man is an island on to himself. Transcendance can be found within us, but as Nietzsche tragically discovered we are not the source of transendance. There are things far greater than the individual and life can let you know exactly how much greater really fast.
