In this episode of NOX, we delve into Chapters Three and Four of Alexander Nevzorov’s provocative book, The Origins of Genius and Fascism.

This chapter takes a surprising dive into the origins of our understanding of the human brain. Nevzorov draws a bold connection between ancient anatomical terms and modern myths about human intelligence, exposing the egotistical illusions we’ve built around our minds.

• Clunibus: An ancient anatomical term meaning “buttocks,” used to describe brain hemispheres.

• Homo sapiens: The so-called “wise man,” whose history reveals a darker, messier truth.

🔥 Nevzorov doesn’t just challenge our understanding of intelligence—he dismantles it, revealing the brain as both a symbol of human ingenuity and a reflection of our foolishness.

This chapter plunges us into the harsh reality of humanity’s origins, stripping away the comforting myths of culture and civilization. Nevzorov paints a vivid, unflinching picture of early Homo sapiens as scavengers shaped by the brutality of the Pleistocene Epoch.

• Pleistocene Epoch: The geological period that forged the survival instincts of Homo.

• Hyenas and Scavenger Behavior: Parallels drawn between early humans and spotted hyenas, whose social bonds relied on conflict, fear, and survival.

• Carrion Competition: A vivid reminder of how humanity clawed its way to survival, often relying on what others discarded.

• Rotten Meat and Maggots: Symbols of the uncompromising nature of early human existence.

🌍 Key Scientific and Historical Terms:

• Deinotherium: A massive prehistoric elephant that served as a buffet for scavengers.

• Megalania: A terrifying giant monitor lizard of Australia.

• Hyenas use stern communication as a form of social bonding in contrast to humans, who use symbolic language in their art and religion.

• “Is culture truly a mark of progress or merely an elaborate disguise for our primitive instincts?”

• “Do we live in a glittering hallucination, blind to the harsh truths of our nature?”

🎭 Featured Historical Figures and Contexts:

• Galen: Roman physician who contributed to early anatomy.

• Herophilus and Erasistratus: Founding figures of anatomical science, whose terms and discoveries echo into modern times.

• Kalahari Desert and Okavango Delta: The settings for Nevzorov’s vivid comparisons between Homo sapiens and hyenas.

This isn’t just a book—it’s a mirror held up to humanity, forcing us to confront the unvarnished truths of our origins and evolution. Alexander Nevzorov’s insights challenge us to think critically about the stories we tell ourselves and the realities we choose to ignore.

Episode 2: Exploring the Myths of Genius and Faith

In this episode of NOX, we dive into the first two chapters of Alexander Nevzorov’s groundbreaking book, The Origins of Genius and Fascism.

📖 Chapter One: “The Brain of Jesus and the Brain of Satan” examines how mythic figures like Jesus and Satan continue to shape our understanding of intelligence, morality, and greatness. Nevzorov challenges us to peel back the layers of faith and genius, exposing them as human constructs—born of their time and our imaginations.

🔥 Chapter Two: “Fire in the Theater of Conditioned Reflexes” takes us deeper into the nature of genius. What is it? A divine spark? An evolutionary accident? Or something far more mundane, shaped by conditioned reflexes and culture?

🌍 Nevzorov’s Anti-War Voice:Beyond his provocative philosophy, Alexander Nevzorov is one of the brightest voices opposing Putin’s regime and its bloody aggression. His unwavering dedication to truth and his fearless critique of authoritarianism have made him a powerful force in the fight against tyranny. Discover his anti-war work and join the resistance for a better world.

🎭 Historical Figures Featured in This Episode:

1. Alcmaeon of Croton 🧠: A Greek pioneer in brain studies who linked the mind to sensory perception.

2. Ivan Pavlov 🐶: Russian physiologist famous for his work on conditioned reflexes (yes, the dog guy!).

3. Julien Offray de La Mettrie 🤖: Enlightenment philosopher who controversially described humans as biological machines.

4. Paul Henri Thiry d’Holbach ⚡: An outspoken critic of religion and a key figure in Enlightenment atheism.

5. Job 📜: The Biblical symbol of unwavering faith amidst suffering.

6. Snow White 🍎: A fairy-tale icon, used by Nevzorov to contrast innocence with the myths we create.

This isn’t just a book. It’s a bold invitation to rethink what it means to be human, to confront the absurdity of existence, and to explore the stories we cling to in order to justify our place in the universe.

Nevzorov challenges us to question the grand myths of humanity, dissecting the absurdities that shape our understanding of genius, faith, and evolution. One of the most striking ideas posed in this foreword: 'How did an ordinary creature like Homo sapiens manage to leave its feces on the Moon, yet remain so deeply entangled in ignorance, delusion, and self-destruction?'
