Resumo: | Would it be possible to identify in our contemporary actions traces that link with broader historical processes that are still ongoing? As much as we consider the specificity of our contemporary experiences, it is impossible not to recognize worrying coincidences that link us to human types evaluated by the critique of the reflective look of certain philosophical traditions, here circumscribed to Nietzschean philosophy. The purpose of this article is to use the analysis of some passages in Nietzsche to help us in the task of unveiling the meaning of the puerile contemporary way of life, accustomed to a narrow doctrine of happiness and virtue that standardize their actions and remove their possibilities of developing a own direction according to the requirements of its singularities. Nietzsche called his contemporaries the “last men”, those who, according to Zarathustra, “do not know what love is, what creation is, what longing is, but they say they invented happiness”, or those who “reduced labor to a pastime, they have given up what is painful, they have gained security and comfort, they consider that everyone is equal and they live for small pleasures”. What paths does Nietzsche take to compose his judgment and present this debased human type? We will use two recent facts, completely distant in their geographical location and in their political dimension, that occurred in the years 2021-2022, to illustrate our similar contemporary condition of diminution: what the play of a group of children can be related to the outcome of the French presidential elections? |

Por más que consideremos la especificidad de nuestras experiencias contemporáneas, es imposible no reconocer preocupantes coincidencias que nos vinculan a tipos humanos evaluados por la crítica a la mirada reflexiva de ciertas tradiciones filosóficas, aquí circunscritas a la filosofía nietzscheana. El propósito de este artículo es utilizar el análisis de algunos pasajes de Nietzsche para ayudarnos en la tarea de develar el sentido de la pueril forma de vida contemporánea, acostumbrada a una estrecha doctrina de la felicidad y la virtud que uniformiza sus acciones y elimina sus posibilidades. de desarrollar una dirección propia acorde a las exigencias de sus singularidades. Nietzsche llamó a sus contemporáneos los “últimos hombres”, aquellos que, según Zaratustra, “no saben qué es el amor, qué es la creación, qué es el anhelo, pero dicen que inventaron la felicidad”, o aquellos que “redujeron el trabajo a un pasatiempo, han renunciado a lo doloroso, han ganado seguridad y comodidad, consideran que todos son iguales y viven para los pequeños placeres”. ¿Qué caminos toma Nietzsche para componer su juicio y presentar este tipo humano degradado? Usaremos dos hechos recientes, completamente distantes en su ubicación geográfica y en su dimensión política, acaecidos en los años 2021 y 2022, para ilustrar nuestra similar condición contemporánea de disminución: con qué se puede relacionar el juego de un grupo de niños. ?el resultado de las elecciones presidenciales francesas?Seria possível identificarmos em nossas ações contemporâneas traços vinculadores com processos históricos mais amplos que ainda estariam em curso? Por mais que consideremos a especificidade de nossas vivências contemporâneas não é possivel deixar de reconhecer coincidências preocupantes que nos vinculam aos tipos humanos avaliados pela crítica do olhar reflexivo de certas tradições filosóficas, aqui circunscrita à filosofia nietzscheana. O objetivo deste artigo é nos servimos da análise de algumas passagens em Nietzsche para nos auxiliar na tarefa de desvelarmos o significado do modo pueril de vida contemporâneo, afeito a uma tacanha doutrina da felicidade e da virtude que uniformizam suas ações e retiram suas possibilidades de desenvolverem uma direção própria segundo as exigências de suas singularidades. Nietzsche denominou seus contemporâneos como os “últimos homens”, aqueles que, segundo Zaratustra, “não sabem o que é amor, o que é criação, o que é anseio, mas dizem que inventaram a felicidade”, ou aqueles que “reduziram o trabalho a um passatempo, desistiram do que é penoso, conquistaram segurança e conforto, consideram que todos são iguais e vivem para os pequenos prazeres”. Quais caminhos percorre Nietzsche para compor seu juízo e apresentar este tipo humano rebaixado? Nós nos serviremos de dois fatos recentes e completamente distantes em sua localização geográfica e em sua dimensão política ocorridos, nos anos de 2021 e 2022, para ilustrar nossa condição contemporânea similar de apequenamento: o que a brincadeira de um grupo de crianças pode ter relação com o resultado das eleições presidenciais francesas?
