Since you have no problems "analyzing" me, I will also say that your project a very unhealthy attachment to the "creative genius" figure and simultaneously disdain for normal people who were not in the right part of the world, to the right parents or with the right natural abilities to "understand" Nietzsche.
I respect exemplary and great things, because they are difficult to achieve, unlikely to occur, ephemeral, and often times more beneficial than what is most typical and normative. I don't disdain normal; I don't like when people overestimate their knowledge, are lazy in their thinking, and project their beliefs onto matters they haven't taken the time to understand, exceptional or unexceptional, because high IQ or low IQ, the easiest person to fool "you're right" is yourself, so do your due diligence not to bullshit yourself. Well, creative geniuses can be just as guilty of bias, prejudice, and faulty thinking as your average person. For instance, Francis Galton was completely wrong about where eminent performance and achievement comes from, yet he invented psychometrics and empirical psychology in his error. Very few people can fuck up so royally and spectacularly while still achieving great feats, so as much as I may be able to criticize Galton, he was a creative genius factually speaking. He changed psychology from the direction of a philosophical exercise to an empirical science whether he was morally correct to our modern values is not the point to me. In like manner, I don't care if Michael Jordan subscribes to the same set of values as me. He's one of the greatest basketball players ever. Tiger Woods could have cheat on his wife 200 times, nobody has been a better golfer to date- Is more my point or the thrust of my argument.
Guess what, if Nietzsche wrote for the top 0.1%, that's a terrible business idea -
Nietzsche hated capitalism, because he valued great religious, artistic, scientific, athletic, and militaristic achievements and one can see in the history of imminent and great achievement in these things that trying to be merely practical is insufficient. Power is not practical it's influential, thus Nietzsche was more so trying to start something like a cultural revolution rather than starting a business or guaranteeing here and now concrete success. For instance, again, Jesus was crucified, and Socrates was forced to drink Hemlock, yet Jesus is the founder of Christianity, and its central figure and Socrates is considered the father of modern western philosophy. Jesus did not have a business plan and at the time given the vast majority of power in Ancient Rome was concentrated among the aristocratic class and in Jerusalem the religious leaders who were supported by the Roman Aristocratic class, it wasn't a good idea for Jesus to oppose them, but because he did people show up every Sunday to read about his life and teachings. They imitate him and make art devoted his or what they believe to be his likeness. I don't make Freshmen read Socrates through Plato, because Socrates had a solid business idea. Commerce and intellectual and creative greatness are different arenas, and you better know which court you're playing on, because oftentimes they don't align, sometimes they do, but in most cases they don't, because businesses tend to thrive on well-established yet little known trends, ways of seeing, and doing things, mostly innovating in production, use or function, and marketing. Being a Free Spirit on the other hand requires your trying to found a new way of being, seeing, or thinking which tends to undermine what is already well established even if not widely known.
Maybe that's the reason why normal people like scientists and not tortured geniuses? Because someone like Einstein actually benefited the world, and was not a dick about it?
Again, word to the wise, don't talk about things you don't know very much about. Einstein said, “Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity.” Also, who did Einstein's ideas benefit the most? GPS companies, Nuclear Arms dealers, The Government, or Scientist who are employed by the government? Most people like science, because they understand that it benefits them in a direct practical way like medicine, electricity, and Wi-Fi, and their culture tells them to, but aside from scientist most people don't really understand or know what science is and how any of the branches function. To add, if the government tells people to start licking cattle a good number of people will do so normal or unusual, because being socially deferential is just how humans tend to be. Further, Einstein isn't a moral paragon or held any less feelings of elitism than Nietzsche he just didn't publicize them. His personal diaries contain a noticeable number of entries that some might describe as being xenophobic, sexist, and elitist.

Well, Socrates wrote nothing down for himself or other philosopher, but that doesn't make him any less a philosophical genius based on what we have of what was written down. People generally dislike Nietzsche because he influenced the Nazis and was Anti-Christian morality and well most western countries have a long history of Christianity and there was a very bloody and long war fought against the Nazis, so like people do, Nietzche and his philosophy was a scapegoat for all that emotional and historical baggage which is why even to this day people like yourself who clearly isn't a very careful student of philosophy aren't ambivalent about Nietzsche but opposed to him, unless you're also a Christian, but again C.S. Lewis and Paul Tillich read the guy and were influenced by him, because more than aphorisms about free spirits and self-deification, he wrote The Genealogy of Morals, The Misuse and Abuse of History, On Truth and Lies in an Extra-Moral Sense, Lectures on The Presocratics: Why they are Pre-Platonics, The Birth of Tragedy, The Twilight of the Idols, The Anti-Christ, Untimely Meditations, The Dawn, works that if you truly like philosophy make it hard not to appreciate his philosophical genius even if you don't agree with his other works or ideas, because nobody, in the history of philosophy, has the same oxymoronical, original, ironic, and liminal kind of thinking and takes things to their logical extremes like Nietzsche, but then again you truly have to appreciate philosophy to think and feel such a way about his writing which again I am doubtful is true of you.
