Nietzsche Relationship Between Good And Evil

People generally see themselves as autonomous meaning they have freedom from external control or influence, that they’re independent. We see ourselves this way because are able to make choices out of our own volition according to our own morals and values. But these morals and values have the same underlying framework. We define ourselves on the grounds of what we believe good and evil to be. It’s the values that we assign to these categories, Nietzsche says, that is detrimental to our being. Nietzsche believes that these are false concepts that we that prevent us from being who we are. Freud has a psychological understanding of the self-understand of. We are always checking ourselves to make sure we are abiding by the values society has created
He does this by creating stories in order to get to their point of explanation he's not concerned with accuracy. It's not a historical case but it’s laid out in that framework in order to give us a sense of where the concepts and categories came from.

The connecting factor in his work is internalizing the notion of evil, and guilt. He describes evil as an intention of man against man, the weak against the strong. He uses nobles and priests to drive the point.

This makes the sense of evil subjective. He used the priestly class as an example of raissonement, an anger that can't be managed, it's complete resentment bordering on hatred which fuels the priestly class. He uses this story to show that evil is fueled by raissonement. Evil becomes a psychological definition which, manifests itself in groups becoming the general will. An internalized expression of rasissonement leads to a profound sense of guilt, it’s a negative force causing great unhappiness it turns into a state of being. This relates directly to his notion of nihilism because raissonement in an external force or internal force cause you to not be who you are giving a sense of contempt outward and inward self-laceration and internalize makes you psychologically doomed because an internalized notion of anger and resentment from guilt only makes you find fault within yourself. Reinvention of the idea of a human being by realizing that the values aren’t
