Fascist or Republican?

[chequita guevara]

Not only that, but the GOP was barely a decade old when they started calling themselves that.

[Heresson]

Stop using that abbreviation! it's Gornoslaski Okreg Przemyslowy, not anything else!

Imran:

All existentialists, Post-structuralists, and Postmodernists were not Facists. Sartre was involved in the French resistance, Derrida wasn't really involved in any political parties but was more with the Socialists in France, Foucoult was anti-Communist (after he joined the Communists in his youth) but decidely not Fascist, etc.

but Nietzsche wasn't your typical existentialist. hell, he pre-dated the rest of them by several decades. Nietzsche was more a medium, both chronologically and philosophically, between romanticism and existentialism. Nietzschean philosophy has elements of both.

Sartre lacked any romantic, heroic, and nostalgic sentiments in his philosophy. Nietzsche had those to a premium as did the fascist intellectuals who quoted him and the fascist artists whose works were conceived in his spirit.

I'll consider Satre as more of a true heir of Nietszche than Fascists. At least Satre didn't perpetuate a slave mentality system. I think people like Satre, Derrida, etc, would be good examples of Nietszche's overman.

[Al B. Sure!]

Sartre was more of an heir to Nietzsche than Martin Heidegger? that's nonsense.

[Imran Siddiqui]

Sartre is much more the overman that Nietzsche described. I would consider someone that lived the overman rather than talked about it as being more of an heir.
