I run a small dog behavior training business. It’s funny how true this rings. Allowing one rule to be broken so it can be in service of another, more important, rule—i.e. relative position while leash walking (head by hip) may be “broken” so we can create space to follow the deeper rule, don’t freak out at the other passing dog. This exemption doesn’t invalidate the first rule, but properly subjugates it.
I don’t pretend to have read Nietzsche. I let everyone know that I only know comments (read excerpts) made by him. But I guess that shows a difference between the goons and the basically honest people: one looks for undeserved recognition, while the other avoids it.
He’s like Andrew Tate of the 19th century but without actually being able to fight. It’s amusing reading the words of a tiny bloke who couldn’t get laid wax lyrical about being ubermensch. However, like Tate, he was exceptionally good at diagnosing the problem. It was just his solution was to evolve to a higher level of humanity which is about as easy as it sounds.
"goons who pretend to have read Nietzsche" 😂😂 I gotta use that.

Splendid exposition, Spencer!
I am behind on my reading and I am not trying be a smart aleck but do you mean your business is small or that you train little dogs?
The former. I missed one of those commas that very much changed the meaning 😂
I run a small,* dog-behavior training business. [fixed]
Great analogy!
Given humans are made in the image of God, it boggles the mind, how so many choose to be “clods”. Thanks a lot Adam.
Rules can never suffice, because we do not have adequate rules for applying the rules.
(AI-driven cars—with more algorithmic rules than any brain could process on the spot—KILL PEOPLE.)

Man, I actually have read Nietzsche, but I don't pretend to understand him. 😅

Yeah if memory serves, this is the same critique G.K. Chesterton levied at Nietzsche.
I love the fact that Chesterton is so amazing he could comment on Andrew Tate before he was even born! He could do anything, except lose weight.
Same bro.
Is there someplace where the artwork in the articles are identified?
