I Agree With Transhumanism

I think transhumanism, under the current economic system, presents certain political problems which make the prospect of merging humans with technology somewhat foreboding. We can all think of examples like chip-tracking, mass surveillance, and the like, but there is also a threat of eugenics, in a certain form. The technology upgrades designed for humans would very easily come under the more immediate access of the wealthy and powerful. In this sense, transhumanist tactics would be used by them to solidify their power through technological advancement. However, the optimistic point is that there will always be those dissidents who develop this same technology and attempt to create mass resistance. The latter camp is the one which will realize, should it ever come to pass, the real potential of transhumanist tactics.

The cult if David Pearce should call itself what it really is. Anti-humanism.
