Nietzsche, Postmodernism & The Death of God - Well rounded Fool | Ep. 05 (Part II)
**This lecture was recorded on 02/08/23**
In this lecture, I discuss the emergence of the Postmodern / Deconstructionist movement and the psychological psyche of postmodernists. We introduce Nietzsche, his works & philosophies & how he contributed to later postmodern thought & the assault on Truth. This series will be divided into three parts.
We also behind excerpts from Beyond Good & Evil, The Will to Power, and briefly introduce John Vervaeke’s theory of Relevance Realization.
A Well-rounded Fool is someone, or the spirit in which someone embodies (acts out) that acquires knowledge outside of a moral framework, for his or her own selfish desires, attempts to use this knowledge to foolishly bend the structure of reality, and “get away with it.’’ The significance of this archetype explains not the physical actions or decisions made by individuals, but a level deeper, the very mindset and ideology one must be in as a prerequisite to distorting reality. The Well-rounded Fool truly believes he can “pull a fast one”, that he can “fool man solely by his arrogance & charm”, such arrogance that he eventually attempts to fool God himself.
