We and Nobility

Because Nietzsche is sometimes interpreted as a radical Individualist, and, hence, as opposed to Collectivism, he might, therefore, disapprove of We. However, to the contrary, in #45 of Human, All Too Human, he associates the capacity to form community with Nobility, and the inability to do so with Baseness. Thus, he appreciates We as a superior Moral condition, while it is, instead, some anti-Collectivists who are deficient in that regard.
