Looking to Nature, the Superman sees justice is the interest of the stronger to the detriment of the weaker. Machiavelli says we should support the weaker against the stronger. Clearly, this idea is political and not natural. Kicking a man when he is down is considered wrong, but when would be a better time? When he is up and able to retaliate? This would not be a prudent course of action. Therefore, one must attack when one’s opponent is weak. Machiavelli is a practical or political philosopher and he has modified Nature’s eternal teachings for his own ends. Supporting the weak is a flawed idea and, therefore, can not last as the only course of action. Fortunately, Machiavelli offers so much advise that one has a plethora of ideas to choose from when supporting the weaker is no longer a viable option.
Does it need to be stated that one’s goals should be paramount and that there is a hierarchy of actions to be taken to insure the goal is accomplished? The methods and directions are always in a state of fluctuation, but the goal? Never! The Superman does not partake of the common morality, although in his youth it is likely he did succumb to it, but step by step, he has intentionally distanced himself from this morality of weakness. It is possible that in his youth he had a fondness for the old, the botched, and the weak. There would be no specific event, but an accumulation of experience that brought him to question conventional morality. This transformation from fondness to criticizing was no doubt gradual and from criticizing he would begin to harbor hatred in his heart. After more life experiences, this hatred finds its way to the mouth and to the pen. That there are many avenues of change open to the Superman and I have listed only one plausible scenario of events. This new found release from the death affirming morality will manifest itself through “The Will to Power”. Just how this is accomplished one may speculate and this speculation is on unstable ground at best. This manifestation of “The Will to Power” will most likely be the taking of a life. Since the taking of a life is against conventional morality, we can assure ourselves this is the final step of the will to power.
In our Modern Age, where we have endured the transvaluation of all values that has lead to animals having “rights” and human life being devalued by more and more of the populace, this will to power will come at the expense of an animal. This is against conventional morality-death for the sake of death. That the presumed victim is a lesser being and not dangerous does not affect the argument. Continuing along the line of going against conventional morality, we can speculate that the our Superman will take the life of not just any animal, but a domesticated animal. To further flaunt his disregard for conventional morality, this domesticated animal must be “Man’s best friend”. The irony will not be lost on our suggested Superman. As a further demonstration of his disgust for conventional morality, the dog will not be an adult. That our prospect Superman will kill a harmless, cute puppy is a triple strike against Modern Morality.
Of course, not all abuse or killing of animals result in the appearance of a Superman, but can anyone question that the the increase of reported animal abuse and cruelty has increased over the last 30 years? Ritual animal sacrifices were only done by “Satanists” in secluded wooded locations, but now animal “cruelty” is not considered uncommon in our cities. No longer can the media and certain church groups blame “Satanists” and “loners” for these acts. As the reporting of animal abuse increases, it seems as though it has become an epidemic. The fact is that modern animal cruelty is growing as society continues its downward path to decadence. The perpetrators themselves are not decadent, but this act is an indication of the decadence of society as a whole. How can one rationally blame the perpetrators and not the society to which they belong? Their behavior, cruelty for cruelty's sake, gives us an indication of our answer.
We state that more psychopaths (as a percentage of the population) exist today than ever before (and we don’t have any reasons why this would be true, unless modern society is making them ill.)
Unable to take positive action against society, our Superman pretenders are using their power against weaker animals. It is only a matter of time until more and more of them continue on their path that can only lead to individual murders followed by mass murder.
