Friedrich Nietzsche documentary

In the documentary of Friedrich Nietzsche: Human, All Too Human video, in the beginning they were talking about Nietzsche and one guy said, “He was a positive thinker, he is enjoying people doing their own thinking, he isn’t one that people should think like him, but a guide that you should think for themselves.” With learning about other philosophers that is completely out of the ordinary. Most philosophers come up with their own philosophy and want people to follow them and their philosophy. For some people, people don’t want to think for themselves. They want to be given what they should think and then follow that. With Nietzsche he is doing the complete opposite, he is making those people think for themselves. In most situations people go and grab bits and pieces from other philosophers and create their own philosophy and that is probably why not a whole lot of people have Nietzsche in their own philosophy.
