    lol bullshit. Admit it, you took philosophy in like 11th or 12th grade, and the textbook maybe had a quote from beyond good and evil in it. You never read beyond good and evil.
    And Nietzsche is one of the most misinterpreted philosophers of all time; even after dissociating him from Nazism, "what he's all about" gets distorted left and right.. Your teachers probably mentioned Nietzsche's concepts of "master & slave morality", maybe the Ubermensch, and then took some false spin on those concepts and taught it as fact.

    Walter Kaufmann did an excellent job though for providing as objective of an interpretation on Nietzsche's works as is possible. For anyone wanting to read Nietzsche make sure its a Kaufmann translation or Hollingdale, or google the translator to make sure they're a reputable scholar and not a passerby that took a few years of German and views philosophy like its pop culture
