See...childish romantic notion. Very few people could live the life Nietzsche lived (it was too miserable), much less be as intelligent and innovative. For society as a whole, survival depends on a social network of people who are kind enough to help one another. The type of anti-social behavior conservatives exhibit is not healthy. Their type of thinking is not good for humanity's well being and advancement.
Not at all. That is false.

If Nietzsche said, "jump off a cliff", would you do it?

Ah! So not 'evil' in the sense of not slaves?
