I finally found the time to read the SEP article and all in all I feel the Wikipedia article is a good summary.
Quoting SEP:
"""
Thus, what unifies Nietzsche's seemingly disparate critical remarks — about altruism, happiness, pity, equality, Kantian respect for persons, utilitarianism, etc. — is that he thinks a culture in which such norms prevail as morality will be a culture which eliminates the conditions for the realization of human excellence — the latter requiring, on Nietzsche's view, concern with the self, suffering, a certain stoic indifference, a sense of hierarchy and difference, and the like.

That goes a lot further than just being descriptive, there's a clear value judgement in there.
