The root of Superman

 

Jeyamohan,

I watched the video about Friedrich Nietzsche. I was pleased to see a scene in which a father and daughter were discussing a Western philosopher seriously, with the daughter actively answering profound questions. One of Chaidanya’s answers was new to me. She says the root of the theory of Superman, by Friedrich Nietzsche, was with Hegel. Marxism is the son (yes, not daughter) of Hegelism. Therefore, the concept of the Superman should also be a fundamental element of Marxism. Then we can understand the phenomenon of Joseph Stalin.
