Wouldn't that be Übermenschen if we wanted to go full pedant? Just sayin'.

But seriously, and not having read the context of that comment, that sounds like the cliché misinterpretation of what Nietzsche actually said. So not only are they wannabes in that sense, but they're wrong in how they're justifying it. I hope there's a German word for "wrong in premise, wrong in conclusion."
