"Nietzsche argued that there were two fundamental types of morality: 'Master morality' and 'slave morality'. Master morality weighs actions on a scale of good or bad consequences unlike slave morality which weighs actions on a scale of good or evil intentions. While slave morality values things like kindness, humility and sympathy, master morality values pride, strength, and nobility."
I don't have extensive knowledge on how these personality types exactly work, but I do have some idea. It feels though, from a general perspective, that all these personality types seem to fit into a master-slave category. There seems to exist Master morality in some of the personality types, and vice versa for Slave morality. I'd like to think that the weak justify the strong, but of course that's just my ego talking.
Your thoughts?
