In this episode, we continue our ruthless exploration of Alexander Nevzorov’s The Origins of Genius and Fascism, diving into Chapters 10 and 11. These chapters strip away the comforting illusions of human intelligence, exposing our brain for what it truly is—an accident, a malfunction, a crude biological tool never meant for reason or logic.

🔹 The Generator of Stupidity
Nevzorov dismantles the myth of intelligence, showing how the human brain wasn’t designed for thought but for survival. Every act of logic, every glimpse of reason? A mere byproduct of an organ built for something far more primitive.

🔹 Planet of the Stupid
A deep dive into the inescapable flaws of human cognition. Civilization, technology, progress—none of it changes the fundamental reality: we are still the same scavenger species, blindly stumbling through history.

🔹 The Myth of Intelligence – Is human thought real, or just a neural hallucination?
🔹 The Brain as an Accident – If reason was never part of evolution’s plan, what does that say about everything we’ve built?
🔹 History Repeats Itself – Are we evolving, or just repeating the same cycles of stupidity on a grander scale?

These chapters introduce critical concepts that reshape our understanding of intelligence and civilization:

🔹 Sherrington & Eccles – Nobel-winning neuroscientists who lost their minds trying to solve the paradox of the brain’s capabilities.
🔹 Epiphenomenon – The idea that human reasoning is nothing more than an accidental byproduct of brain activity.
🔹 The Embroidery Paradox – An analogy proving that the brain, like a blind and limbless artisan, could never have deliberately created science, technology, or civilization.
🔹 Purgatorius – The rat-like ancestor of Homo, chosen by evolution not for its intelligence, but for its gut.
🔹 The Reticular Formation – The true master of human behavior, responsible for everything from sex to violence—while logic is merely an afterthought.
🔹 The Scavenger’s Brain – Why the majority of our neurons are dedicated to instinct, not intellect.
