Is it unfair for Nietzsche to limit the power to create value to the “noble”?
I think it is unfair for Nietzsche to limit the power to create value to the noble. Everyone, whether rich or poor, have the right and ability to determine what creates value for their own lives. It is not fair to say whatever the nobles value will effect what the “slaves” consider to be valuable because they can decide for themselves. Nietzsche makes the point that the slaves look at what the noble find valuable and automatically push it away because they are jealous and know they will never have what the nobility possesses. I don’t agree with him and think he is again making an unfair assumption. Do the less fortunate people really care what the nobility have where they would adjust their own beliefs to go against them? Nietzsche is degrading people not of the nobility in this way because he is implying they cannot think for themselves and are followers, this is another unfair and generalized thing to say.
