Based on the name of the section, or based on the description (boldface is mine)? Antihero is a sort of appreciation, after all.
Rewards:
And overall, the West should return to the roots of the Occident: μῆνιν ἄειδε θεὰ... ‘Wrath, o goddess sing...’ —In the beginning of Western literature: Homer. —Do I look wrathful to you? —Be I thus accursed? —Be it so, I will reign in Hell...I admit: I am “evil”*! (← Timelord2067, please quote and archive, with your usual vague and ridiculous insinuation of having caught me saying something that I didn’t damn well mean. Thanks.) * This admission is qualified below. But first, I have a public service announcement as part of my antiheroic campaign to beat up on idiots till they ignore-list me: If you are not reading it, then it is not for you. Too bad. —ahem. I’ll just wait right here, whilst the unmitigated savages add me to their ignore lists. For they should not be allowed to read what I am about to write.Quote from: Nietzsche Everyone being allowed to learn to read, ruineth in the long run not only writing but also thinking. PSA: If you dislike my posts, then please don’t read my writing! Thank you. Ah, that’s better! Now that everyone is gone, I can get to my point. THIS SPACE IS INTENTIONALLY LEFT NULL. Hunh. Username checks out. [...] Fear nothing.I am untamed and untameable. Uh-oh, the NSA found me.  Quote from: Nietzsche, The Genealogy of Morals, I.11. The method of this man is quite contrary to that of the aristocratic man, who conceives the root idea “good” spontaneously and straight away, that is to say, out of himself, and from that material then creates for himself a concept of “bad”! This “bad” of aristocratic origin and that “evil” out of the cauldron of unsatisfied hatred—the former an imitation, an “extra,” an additional nuance; the latter, on the other hand, the original, the beginning, the essential act in the conception of a slave-morality... ...these men who in their relations with each other find so many new ways of manifesting consideration, self-control, delicacy, loyalty, pride, and friendship, these men are in reference to what is outside their circle (where the foreign element, a foreign country, begins), not much better than beasts of prey, which have been let loose. They enjoy there freedom from all social control, they feel that in the wilderness they can give vent with impunity to that tension which is produced by enclosure and imprisonment in the peace of society, they revert to the innocence of the beast-of-prey conscience, like jubilant monsters, who perhaps come from a ghostly bout of murder, arson, rape, and torture, with bravado and a moral equanimity, as though merely some wild student's prank had been played, perfectly convinced that the poets have now an ample theme to sing and celebrate.... ...all these aristocratic races... the Roman, Arabic, German, and Japanese nobility, the Homeric heroes, the Scandinavian Vikings... a consciousness of this very barbarianism, and even a pride in it, manifests itself even in their highest civilisation (for example, when Pericles says to his Athenians in that celebrated funeral oration, “Our audacity has forced a way over every land and sea, rearing everywhere imperishable memorials of itself for good and for evil”). Quote from: Nietzsche, The Antichrist, #2. The weak and the botched shall perish: first principle of our charity. And one should help them to it. What is more harmful than any vice?— Practical sympathy for the botched and the weak— Christianity... “Antiheroic” enough for you insapient talking monkeys? ;-) When you vote, just remember: Only I would run a political campaign by quoting the anti-democratic Nietzsche, and taunting the voters—who are probably too stupid to realize that this is my way of laughing at their opinions, no matter whether or not they vote for me. —We (royal “we”) must amuse ourselves...
