Violence of philosophy

Nietzsche achieves the thorough-going self-contradictory nature of his thought - by means of which he earns, in truth, his right to criticize philosophy, and criticize it inexhaustively - by means of compromising the innocence of his reader. This compromise appears as Nietzsche's unpleasant need for self-criticism, that is, his need to retract instinctively what the uncritical forward impulse of his life puts forward. Why? : In search of an innocence not condemned to forceful retraction.
