What even is this? I could totally see this all being AI-slop.
"We observe the evolution from a proto-skier to a superior skier; to a super-skier. And who is a super-skier? Nietzsche would answer that it is he who demands the most of himself, he who skis to surpass himself, who frees himself from routines by seeking superiority not over others, but over himself.
In the Socratic imperative, the skier is not mediocre by nature, but simply by ignorance, which is why the Nietzschean super-skier contrasts with the average, mediocre, or ordinary skier.
The super-skier is technically competent, ethically and morally perfect, and virtuously pretentious. He is a skier who rises above, who has been able to create skiing so intense that it can be repeated several times in an eternal return, that is, the repetition of his present skiing.
It is the one who is searching for the meaning of skiing as a self-realized skier, transcending mere pleasure. In order to attain the status of a super-skier, it is necessary to transition from a reactive skier to an active one, adopting a novel approach to feeling, thinking, and, above all, being. A mediocre skier will succeed in becoming a super-skier when he is able to ski without fear of change.
According to Nietzschean logic, we cannot be postmodern skiers without being a turn ahead of ourselves, without at least trying to be super-skiers."
