I read his material for a class in high school over 10 years ago. His material is hardly up to interpretation, as are most philosophical works, as he had very specific ideas about the world. That argument ends up becoming a slippery slope to "anything can be misconstrued." And if that's the case, it doesn't mean writers don't have a specific intent behind their words. The main point is that Nietzsche was a religious man and anti-nihilist which a lot of people seem to conveniently gloss over as a result of not actually reading anything he's said.
dude even the fucking nazis used nietzsches shit. To argue that it "CANNOT" be misconstrued is probably one of the fucking statements of all time.
