tesla.sexy contains the following text, which is slightly concerning:

  love your fate
  
  become your own ubermensch
  
  you are the master of your soul
  
  be kind
  
  there is so much to love, so much to live for
  
  follow your heart, ok?

Why is this concerning? Note, it seems to me like their reference to "ubermensch" is to the Nietzschean definition [0] and not the Nazi remix.

There are quite a few too many accidental Nazi references these days imo ...

Its happening alongside the (yet unsubstantiated) rumor that Tesla engineers as a group would face a picture of Maye Musk each morning.

None of us live in an ideal vacuum and this word has been tainted by its use in nazi ideology. Whomever wrote that has a responsibility to know what the words they use mean.

The combination of symbols is not random either. For example: taken individually, I'm willing to believe we're talking about Kantian Weltanschauung, Nietzschean Übermenschen, Nordic runes, medieval wolfsangel, Roman salute, or east-Asian swastika. But if I notice several at once, I will become quite suspicious.

These kids seem to have been indoctrinated into a cult of Curtis Yarvin. They love talking about Nietzschean and Yarvinist ideas like this one and cathedrals. This same creep had a quote on his Twitter bio that reads "there are cathedrals everywhere for those with eyes to see". If you don't get the reference, do some research on Yarvin. I think these people legitimately have dangerous intents.

I really hate reading Yarvin, who I feel is an extremist niche weirdo, but fellow geeks keep referring me to him. Got a tldr? What's wrong with seeing cathedrals everywhere?

> Why is this concerning?

If I saw this on my dinner table one morning I'd assume someone committed suicide.
