Un veneno, un capricho, un narcótico, una tentación… Cualquier cosa que les haga refugiarse en la trampa del confort. Lo que muchos de ellos desconocen es que no exponerse a la incertidumbre acaba empequeñeciendo el carácter. En tal caso, ¿sería dicha moralidad la que ha impedido que ese individuo logre alcanzar su máximo potencial? ¿podría decirse, pues, que esa moralidad es el peligro de los peligros? La mayoría de las personas que conozco jamás se ha cuestionado por qué ciertas cosas son consideradas moralmente deseables o, por el contrario, repulsivas. Por lo general, su actitud para con la moral es prácticamente inconsciente, automática y acrítica. Se limitan a calcar las opiniones, rumores y juicios de valor ajenos imperantes en la sociedad como si de verdades absolutas se trataran. Según Nietzsche, la moralidad reinante en occidente va en contra de los instintos vitales del ser humano, motivo por el cual es tremendamente perjudicial; el “peligro de los peligros”, como indica en sus escritos. ¿Y a qué se debe? Todos los individuos, incluso aquellos con el potencial de elevarse por encima de la masa mediocre, están sometidos a una fuerte presión para convertirse en un “animal de rebaño diminuto, ridículo y mediocre cuya única aspiración es complacer las necesidades de sus semejantes siendo sólo una triste sombra de lo que podría llegar a ser”. Entonces, ¿cómo es que este veneno mortífero se ha expandido por la civilización moderna con tanto éxito? Para poder comprenderlo, el filósofo alemán categoriza a los individuos en dos tipologías radicalmente opuestas en Más allá del bien y del mal: los superiores y los del rebaño.
