@[freakishfae:52316] Try to get some education. Kafka hat nothing to do with Nietzsches concept of Übermensch. And Nietzsches concept had nothing to do with the Nazi concept. Nietzsche did not use the word "Untermensch". So the title can really only interpreted as a reference to the racist concept although I don't think this song is racist. Pete later apologized for this song. I guess mostly because of the title. Nietzsche was never referring to scum of society. It was more about the people who follow and the people who lead within one society to put it at its simplest. Nietzsches "last human" (not subhuman) can get along very well. He represents the vast majority of a society, that lives a good life seeking security, avoiding conflicts, being fastidious, so it's basically all of us - the victims of society that are not suffering. |
