so true.
i hope this book reaches larger masses.
in fact, all his books should reach a greater audience for a semantic understanding of the ordeals of society.

When Nietzsche Wept

> He wasn’t promoting nihilism, he was warning us about what happens after we lose belief in higher values. He saw that once “God (Ubermensch) is dead,” people wouldn’t become free, they’d panic, run toward comfort, and invent new idols (safety, ideology, herd-think).

Uhh...did you even read my post? We are literally saying the same thing. 

>Most people still don’t get the message. That’s why the book hits so hard. 

Correct. The characters in Zarathustra missed the point, as did the real-world public who the only thing they know about Nietzsche is that "he was a nihilist".
