Sumario:The objective of the article is to present the neorationalist formulations of the Iranian philosopher Reza Negarestani. From its inhumanism, it is possible to glimpse the reissue of the emancipatory project through the thesis of greater cognitive autonomy (theoretical and practical) inscribed in the semantic and linguistic sociability of a rational community (whether that of humans or machines). The ultimate end of emancipation goes on to the continuous exercise of the liberation of intelligence through the expansion of intelligibility. That is to say, towards an inhuman intelligence that can be artificialized. Starting with an inversion, I begin the article with a text on the state of art of the de-colonial in order to try to understand what is the decolonization of thought to which Reza Negarestani refers in his program of expansion of intelligence. The second part is directed to the attempt to understand the referred program and briefly offers some considerations of the negarestanian adoption of the principiological prerogatives of the Enlightenment epistemic soil, in order to endorse the thesis on a permanent program of coloniality of thought.
