This article offers a Nietzschean analysis of Occupy Wall Street offshoot Strike Debt to defend the movement as an authentic application of his moral theory. In addition, it argues that Strike Debt’s tactics, independent of any Nietzschean justification, offer a just, nonviolent, and effective means to empower debtors against the exploitative and oppressive forces of debt culture.
