Thanks for posting this Gregory. I'd love to hear your thoughts on Max Scheler's _Formalism in Ethics and Non-Formal Ethics of Values_

That's a massive tome. I like Scheler quite a bit, but it would be a while before I'd tackle that stuff in videos

I have a deeply existential question. I completely understand the concept here, how these all came to be, the truth behind truths and lies. I understand that it is all metaphor. But what does it mean? How we should live then? What is the message? How can I get out of Nietzschean bleak pessimism? How can I go back to love for humanity when I know this? What philosophy can go deeper into this and save me from this existential angst.

Does Nietzsche deal with people lying to themselves? Surely that would reside outside of any shared 'herd' consensus but would still according to his concept be a perversion of the use of language that would be detrimental, but in this case detrimental to the self?

He alludes to this in the essay. I would even go so far as saying mind-body dualism is one of those “lies”. “That haughtiness which goes with knowledge and feeling, which shrouds the eyes and senses of man in a blinding fog, therefore deceives him about the value of existence by carrying in itself the most flattering evaluation of knowledge itself. Its most universal effect is deception; but even its most particular effects have something of the same character.” and “What, indeed, does man know of himself! Can he even once perceive himself completely, laid out as if in an illuminated glass case? Does not nature keep much the most from him, even about his body, to spellbind and confine him in a proud, deceptive consciousness, far from the coils of the intestines, the quick current of the blood stream, and the involved tremors of the fibers? She threw away the key; and woe to the calamitous curiosity which might peer just once through a crack in the chamber of consciousness and look down, and sense that man rests upon the merciless, the greedy, the insatiable, the murderous, in the indifference of his ignorance-hanging in dreams, as it were, upon the back of a tiger. In view of this, whence in all the world comes the urge for truth?”

What about someone who does not follow the concepts of the peaceful agreement but does not benefit. For example people from a different culture who do not share the same truth. Are these also liars who would call a shirt a zuba zuba?

So, much like many of Nietzsche's genealogies, the distinction between truth and lies arise as a shared convention among the herd; what is considered truth and lie is merely a matter of consensus among the herd and in so far as it serves the needs of the herd or the individual? What's he getting at when he says it's truth and lies "in the extramoral sense?"

I wouldn't say that he thinks it's a matter just of "consensus" among the members of the herd.

Correct me if I'm wrong, I remember hearing an aphorism that the individual has a conscience whereas the social has a consensus. But if the conscience be subjective, to the will or anything else then honestly, why shouldn't it be considered a consensus?
