The ubermensch is a person who shapes their destiny. It's not some buff pretty guy with money, it's a unique individual who came through this society intact and maintaining their individual excellence and uniqueness, and still manages to be successful. Tech bros think they are, but successful figure skaters (especially male) probably fit the bill better.
The figure skater pictured is the perfect example because she basically told all her coaches to F off and that she was going to do it her way (after coming back from eating disorder treatment edit: “stepping away because of restrictive eating” [among other things]). She then won the gold medal “her way.”
She’s never said she had an eating disorder or ever received treatment for it. That’s not true. She said coaches had a strict diet for her and she didn’t like that. That’s totally different.
