  • Look, silicon valley didn’t invent transhumanism in 2023. It’s at least half a century older. TESCREAL is clearly antihuman but just because billionaires want to use transhumanism for bad purposes doesn’t make it inherently bad. Look up definition of inherently.

    I wasn’t using word trans there because it wasn’t my point. Just because I want to improve myself with technology doesn’t make me evil. Maybe the evil part is exterminating humans, not improving humans who want to be improved. Maybe forcing an ideology on othet people is the evil part? Transhumanism itself has nothing to do with killing.

    Sentences in your last paragraph are so broke I have no idea what you are saying.



  • When you say “a lot of” you are talking about less than ten people. They are just the loudest ones because they literally own their media platforms. I’m sure there are orders of magnitude more scientists and just scifi fans who dream of transhumanism for the good.

    Have you considered that maybe rich are inherently evil? Or maybe forcing the thing on other people is the evil part, not the thing itself?


  • Wikipedia

    a transhuman is a being that resembles a human in most respects but who has powers and abilities beyond those of standard humans.

    Wiktionary:

    1. An enhanced human
    2. A being that transcends humanity; a superhuman being.

    Merriam-Webster:

    Trancending human limits : superhuman

    Oxford english dictionary

    Beyond the human; superhuman.

    None of those make it inherently anti-human. That’s like saying a man who wants to be a woman is also anti-man.

    If I want to be stronger or smarter or anything through technological means, why would that make me anti-human? I can even be prohuman despite being transhuman.
