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 want to replace my knees with ones that suck less and eyes with ones that can see all the extra colors birds and shit see, but i guess that's more just plain cybernetics?
Under the current system, so many of those replacements are proprietary tech owned by startups, and if that startup folds, it bricks and they probably want to remove it too, at your expense.
yeah that's the hell of it with this stuff
