I know what transhumanism is, but people who are not, for example, academics in a related field calling themselves a transhumanist makes no sense to me. Like, as a transhumanist, what do you do?
Are these people just identity-hungry fans of a genre of sci-fi? Are they saying we shouldn't work to solve societal problems because technology will do it for us? Do they just watch a lot of youtube videos about it?
i used to think it would be cool if there was a gender or cat ear booth you could step into depending on how you are feeling that day. or that it would be cool to have some kind of Culture-like neural lace interface to access control of one's biological processes. but that is bio-liberatory commie transhumanism i don't want anything to do with the capitalist version
