The Philosophy of Nietzsche with Robert Malka (WiM295)
The "What is Money?" Show
The Virtue of Self-Preservation
"There might actually be a virtue to selfishness," he says. "Even in dealing with your children, there's going to be times where the parent probably behaved selfishly." Even when a mother takes a bullet for her child, there's still some element of selfishness,. Maybe even more than that, which is to say that this is an altar upon which I place my love and celebrate my love by taking that bullet".
Robert Malka joins me to discuss Friedrich Nietzsche’s philosophy, the history of religious belief, the philosophy of love, good and evil, the fundamental structure of human civilization, and the prospect of a new world through Bitcoin.
Robert Malka is a board of directors member for the Bitcoin Today Coalition, an author, and an entrepreneur.
