@monarchist @freepatriot I think, if Nietzsche and Schopenhauer are taught at all, it is as history of philosophy and nothing else.
When I studied philosophy, it was mostly modern philosophers (let's say from the 1920s and on wards) and the theme was how to apply each philosophic field within an engineering setting. Nietzsche & Co I had to study at home because I enjoy it.
It is true... most people today seem to work very hard in order not to have to think. =/
People want what is mentally convenient.
This is almost always the opposite of what increases value.
Philosophy is the science of seeing why we should aspire to something greater.
However, that is offensive to the vast majority of people simply because they do not understand it.
