The Brilliant Burden of Being Human
What if the most celebrated trait of our species - our intelligence - is actually our greatest liability? Friedrich Nietzsche, the brilliant philosopher who spiraled into madness, simultaneously pitied animals for their mindless existence and envied their freedom from existential suffering. After embracing a beaten horse in Turin, he suffered a complete mental breakdown from which he never recovered. His genius, it seems, was ultimately his undoing. If Nietzsche had possessed the simpler mind of a narwhal, perhaps his life would have ended differently. This provocative premise forms the foundation of a counterintuitive exploration: our vaunted human intelligence may not be the evolutionary advantage we've always assumed. While we pride ourselves on our capacity for complex thought, this same ability has led us to create existential threats like climate change and nuclear weapons - problems no narwhal would ever face.
