In other words‚ the “slaves” or the commoners described in the first moral dynamic now use their place as the “pure” ones in society to outwardly label others as “evil.” And‚ who are the evil “enemies?” Nietzsche very directly states that the

Nietzsche conveys that out of the two moralities‚ it’s better to not be under slave morality. Their way of life is ailing and deranged. They will always be on the hunt to get revenge on their enemies. It’s a distraction for them to live a civilized life. Although Beverly isn’t living a civilized life. She’s doing more to clear out societies problems than the nobles. For what Beverly’s victims and opposers do that they think is right for themselves or society‚ is clearly out of line.

“Nietzsche on Judeo-Christian Morality” In Nietzsche’s aphorisms 90-95 and 146-162 he attacks what he believes to be the fundamental basis of the “slave” morality prevalent in the Judeo-Christian tradition as well as other religions and societies. From the beginning‚ he distinguishes the two different types of moralities he believes to exist: the “master morality”‚ created by rulers of societies‚ and the “slave” morality‚ created by the lowest people in societies.

n this respect‚ according to Nietzsche the value of a certain morality is to be determined in the light of the question “does it further life or does it stultify life?” . Accordingly‚ we find in The Genealogy of Morals that ‘[…] all events in the organic world are a subduing‚ a becoming master‚ and all subduing and becoming master involves a fresh interpretation‚ an adaptation through which any previous “meaning” and “purpose” are necessarily obscured or even obliterated’ (GM 12).

In his works‚ Nietzsche argues that the fatal issue with society today is the prevailing slave morality. Instead of focusing

Freud and Nietzsche on Human Nature and Society After intensive analyzation of reading Civilization and It’s Discontents by Sigmund Freud and Beyond Good and Evil by Friedrich Nietzsche‚ I feel as if both Freud and Nietzsche offered virtually identical views of human nature and of the society in which they lived.

of the eventual victory of the “slaves revolt” in morality. In “First Essay: ‘Good and Evil’‚ ‘Good and Bad‚’” which is part of the work On the Genealogy of Morality‚ Nietzsche outlines the two types of morality--aristocratic and slave--and describes the eventual overtaking of aristocratic morality by slave morality through the “slaves revolt.” Nietzsche claims that master morality came first‚ with its defining characteristics being the morality of the masters‚ nobles‚ and warriors who saw themselves
