The internet has brought to light the convergence of the two great Nietzschean ideas, eternal return and the advent of the superhuman. We will more and more often find our path strewn with things that we have done or thought in the past. Are we sufficiently morally armed for this? The absence of forgetfulness is a terrifying weapon in the hands of those all-too-human passions: stupidity, animosity, and resentment.
