       context:nietzsche explicitly describes fascist-type societies as defined by 'master morality' and he is excoriating of these structures, pointing out that they're defined by and limited by their dependency on the power structure in the same ways as submissive 'slave morality'. his whole philosophical approach of 'philosophizing with a hammer' is designed to find meaning and self-direction (will to power) without relying on being attached to one's position in a system of power. even leaving aside his specific attacks on antisemitism, his basic writing is clearly explicitly critical of social systems like fascism.his abusive sister who was a proto-fascist took advantage of his schizophrenia to medically abuse him and totally control his estate for the rest of his life and death. she manipulated and edited his writings to frame his thoughts in ways that would benefit the nascent fascist movement. these edited texts were all that initially made their way to the anglophone world. thus creating a false pessimistic and fascistic version of nietzsche disconnected from his actual ideas.
