Transhumanism I
As opposed to we mere humans

I started writing this after reading a piece from Mike Hind called You Can’t Push Back on a Wraith: Successor ideology will not name itself, and speculation from Mathew Crawford as to what is the hidden reason why medical boards are even now coming down so hard on doctors who question covid policy:
People need to understand what is going on—both in medicine and in the rest of Western society. Just as in the military, the ranks of physicians with a moral backbone are being culled. Whatever the plan, it can't be good.
In this substack I have been very critical of woke and trans ideologies. For the record, I don’t have any problem with anyone identifying as trans. I watched Pose and I appreciated it, I enjoyed it, I empathized. If the trans movement were only about giving trans the same rights and dignity of any citizen, great. But that is not what this is about. In fact it is about a lot more than the trans movement. The trans movement is merely one part of transhumanism. Everyone should be clear about what transhumanism is, because the plan is to exterminate humans as we have known ourselves.
I realize that is an extreme statement, but I don’t think such a simple statement is as extreme as mutilating and sterilizing children in the name of gender therapy, or a covid jab and covid policies that appear to be about 100+ times as devastating as the virus.
But I am getting ahead of myself. Transhumanism is defined by Wikipedia as:
a philosophical and intellectual movement which advocates the enhancement of the human condition by developing and making widely available sophisticated technologies that can greatly enhance longevity and cognition.[1][2]
Transhumanist thinkers study the potential benefits and dangers of emerging technologies that could overcome fundamental human limitations as well as the ethics[3] of using such technologies. Some transhumanists believe that human beings may eventually be able to transform themselves into beings with abilities so greatly expanded from the current condition as to merit the label of posthuman beings.[2]
At it’s most base, this is what we might call the logical extension of the myth of eternal progress. This is a particularly American if not exclusively a Western Civilization thing. Democrats are fond of repeating MLKing’s phrase about the arc of history always leading toward justice, but that is mostly a Boomer American conceit.
It can also be said to be the logical extension of science as a worldview and more specifically Newtonian, mechanistic physics, something like the hardware of the universe. We are all just the stuff of stars, mostly empty space but otherwise solid, a mass of atoms coming together making elements, elements become materials to become DNA, single celled organisms, bone, sinew and brain matter. We have split the atom, now we are unlocking the genome and we can build nano bots to self assemble as computers in the body to “heal” ourselves. We can deliver mRNA gene manipulation jabs by mosquito. Of course we are going to eventually become cyborgs, sometime before we travel to the stars.
Because we are just matter assembled as flesh, and consciousness is just a construct of the flesh, then all the laws of humans are constructs, including morality, ethics, religious doctrine, truth, justice, this is all like software by which we order our lives, which can be switched out at any time with other software, new moralities, ethics, laws, Constitutions. The past is just that time when we didn’t have as much computing power as we do now. The technology of the past is simply not as powerful as it is today, and power is the only measure. In that sense, the progress of technology becomes the ethic, it becomes the morality.
Hence the disconnect around biological sex, because technology can unmake it therefore technology is greater than biology.
Of course you might imagine, this is a slippery slope. Have you noticed how everybody seems to be doing Gain of Function research on viruses lately, anybody with the tech and the know how, which is a pretty low bar these days? If you are reading this you might be familiar with how the technology trumped the scientific with covid, and really trumped any recognizable moral or ethic. All the laws of man were subsumed to the tech of mRNA jabs. The scientific community seems to have removed all ethical and moral barriers to their research, the ends always justify the means.
Why do you suppose the woke, who “follow the science”, who are really just following the technology, feel so free to be unethical and immoral? Why do you suppose the Democratic party, which bows before tech in all things, and the media, are so free to lie? Why do you suppose Anthonee Phauce’ is incapable of any truth? What about the honesty of the military and intelligence community? They believe themselves to be the leading edge of evolution, they have left behind all the morality and ethics of antiquated humans.
There is a climate crisis, the tech is going to save us, and the tech that is a centralized digital currency is going to facilitate the fourth industrial age, you will all be trans- and subject to the tech and the technocrats who administrate it, and all the tech delivered inside you by state dictate.
When Yuval Harari talks about us being hackable animals, he is saying you are just matter and nothing else, your consciousness is just a construct of that matter and useless if you cannot assist in the progress of technology and you deserve to be manipulated. In that sense you are not even worthy of being hacked, you would be better eliminated, as you are consuming limited resources. In this sort of thinking, what is stopping them from eliminating the useless eaters? Morals? Ethics? Religion? Law? If the only morality, or the chief morality is merely the progress of technology, then killing people with lockdowns, ventilators and Remdesivir instead of saving them with Ivermectin and Hydroxychloriquine, Vitamin D & C and zinc, in order to normalize the use of mRNA jabs, even if those jabs prove to more deadly than the virus, that is the moral thing to do, and Phauce’ the most moral man.
But of course, to make this work, they have to destroy everything that is a memory of what was moral and ethical. That is why they are ridding the military and FBI of men of conscious. That is why medical boards are stripping the rights of honest doctors to practice medicine, like Peter McCullough and Meryl Nass. That is why they embrace all things woke, to weaponize post-modern race and gender ideology, to rid every institution of the principled, the moral and the ethical. That is why the streets are flooded with more drugs than meaningful jobs. That is probably why there has been an ammunition shortage for more than a year now, with no end in sight.
The transhumanists will strip from us everything that has made us human. Since the AIDS crisis it has been a constant refrain of the dangers of sex, the dangers of pathogens, the dangers of viruses. They want to estrange us from each other, and from the earth. They have wanted us to stop breeding, they have been sterilizing us gradually but now that is accelerating. They would have no human ever again use a plant or a mushroom for healing. They would divorce you entirely from the food you eat, which would become little but insects and grains highly processed. Plug you in all day to play video games, get your direct infusion of sustenance and intravenous nanobots without leaving your pod. You’ld be better for all concerned dead.
Of course if they actually wanted to make a better human, we would simply let respiratory viruses pass through society and do what we can to save the vulnerable. You know, evolution. But evolution is not the point. The point is to weaken and eventually sterilize you, until you are no longer any kind of threat, so they can rule the world indefinitely.
The cull is accelerating.
The transhumanist worldview is pathological, and most people are not. But most people will go along with it, if they think their livelihood depends on it. The rest of us are dead meat, about equivalent in the new ethic to cattle, which have to be got rid of too apparently, in the great reset.
But guess who would be the only ones allowed to be mostly unvaccinated, allowed to eat meat, allowed to burn fossil fuels? Yeah, the transhumanist elite.
Anyway, in case you haven’t noticed, they don’t play by our rules. They don’t actually have any. So, figure it out. In case you haven’t, keep in mind it’s the boosted who are showing the worst outcomes. But defiance is made of more than defying jab and booster mandates. Be human. Your immune system and millions of years of genetic heritage are better and stronger than their visions of cyborgs. The point of being human is to be the best human you can be. There is a great deal about being human that has been hidden from you, by those who wish to keep you in chains.

The poll from last Friday opened up. Roses are red, violets are blue, I like your fiction, Dystopia! I hope this post was dystopia enough for you. I will sing a song of this beautiful world every so often. I will even post a poem, probably less than 8% of the time. Thanks to those who took the poll. Thanks to the 192 of the 193 subscribers who stuck around.
As a psychotherapist, one of my specialties is working with folks in the LGBT demographic. There is one common factor among nearly all (I cannot think of one exception) the trans clients who I have seen, and that is trauma history, particularly in childhood. There is much to say here, but in the interest of time, traumatic experiences have a fragmenting effect on the human psyche. Generally speaking, the worse the trauma, the more fragmentation there is. Fragmentation of the psyche makes identity formation difficult, and finding ways to create and maintain safety become paramount. In this light, it is easy to see why a young girl who was sexually abused over the course of her childhood might want to "become" a man. Let us also be clear that taking testosterone will have the effect of reducing anxiety.
I could have a lot more to say here if anyone is interested. I just don't currently have the time. I do not claim any authority higher than my lived experience with my clients, just FTR.
Transhumanism is humanism taken to its logical conclusion. The opposite philosophical perspective is antinatalism.
Until medical science is able to reverse the ageing process, I have no interest in transhumanism. Our mortality defines what we are, no matter how many stories we tell ourselves, or how many implants we insert.
