Editing Friedrich Nietzsche (section)

=== Superegoic Morality and Ethical Rigidity ===
Though famously associated with “beyond good and evil,” Nietzsche’s moral vision is not relativistic. It is '''rigid, categorical, and internalized'''—what I call the '''autistic superego'''. He criticizes conventional morality not to dismiss ethics but to '''replace it with a structured hierarchy of value''', governed by '''will, form, and strength of coherence'''.

His ethics are not interpersonal; they are '''aesthetic'''. He judges morality not by outcome but by '''symbolic force'''. This preference for '''internal moral modeling over empathy-driven ethics''' is common in Asperger thought: '''truth is internal clarity, not interpersonal resonance'''.
