Sometimes the internet gets philosophy just right. The iceberg meme – a visible tip above water, countless layers hidden below – has become a perfect map for complexity. Joey from Unsolicited Advice used it to stack the most famous thought experiments of philosophy, from playful puzzles to existential nightmares.
We took his video as a starting point and created a magazine-style excerpt. Five highlights are enough to make your brain crackle:
🐒 Infinite Monkey & the Library of Babel
🚃 The Trolley Problem
🛠️ The Ship of Theseus
🧪 Mary’s Room
🖥️ Simulation & Basilisk
Each one pulls at the edges of our concepts: What counts as knowledge? How do we define identity? Why does morality bend when the scenario changes?
👉 Our full feature article dives into these paradoxes with context, commentary, and a touch of poetic resonance.
