Yesterday, El Mercurio (A major paper in Chile and Latin America with abt 300,000 copies) published a big feature on #transhumanism that starts with my work and interview. I believe 2018 will continue the fast growing trend of international major media covering how the transhumanism movement is changing the world: http://impresa.elmercurio.com/Pages/NewsDetail.aspx?dt=2017&…2&bodyid=6 #transhumanismo #Spanish

Shermer’s journey into the present-day search for human domination over death and society’s ills introduces readers to all forms of what he calls “techno-optimism,” meaning the belief that technological progress means an end to death — or, at the very least, to aging and social decay. There are the cryonicists who want to freeze us, and those who want simply to freeze our brains, with all their neural connections and associated memories (the connectome). The transhumanists want to enhance us so thoroughly — through means both natural and artificial — that we become godlike, “taking control of evolution and transforming the species into something stronger, faster, sexier, healthier and with vastly superior cognitive abilities the likes of which we mere mortals cannot conceive”; the Omega Point theorists think we will all one day be brought back to life in a virtual reality. Believers in “the singularity” contend that it is possible to upload the human brain to a server without losing the essence of what makes you you. And, of course, there are those who try to cure us of aging, so that our bodies and minds will cease to deteriorate and our life spans will increase ad infinitum. Shermer visits each of these and other utopian theories with detail and considered analysis, drawing readers along increasingly unrealistic (or are they?) possibilities for our future evolution. It’s a journey as boggling as it is engrossing.

In “Heavens on Earth,” Michael Shermer explores the lengths to which mankind will go to ensure our souls’ survival beyond existence on this mortal coil.

The transhumanist vision of a transformed and technologically enhanced humanity is no longer a science fiction pipe dream. The technological and scientific breakthroughs our society has experienced over the past couple of decades perhaps stand testament to that.

Applied science has certainly come a long way too, but we are yet to crack the brain’s enigma code. How would humanity benefit if we were to crack it? Neuroprosthetics seem to be a window into the future.

Can brain activity be translated into movement?

A The Baffler story, which doesn’t seem very nice to the tech industry. I support tech industry spreading across the heartland, which in my opinion would be very good for America. Nothing is perfect people, but a positive direction is a good thing: https://thebaffler.com/latest/the-carpetbaggers-of-tech-tveten #transhumanism

The faces are different, but the schemes are the same. Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos, Steve Chase, and J.D. Vance launch tech’s takeover of the heartland.

My close friends and loved ones know that I prefer they/them pronouns but they also understand that I don’t identify as anything. Ultimately in this temporality and dimension…I was assigned male at birth, human at birth, child at birth BUT 2017 in a post-gender society on the brink era of transhumanism…where freedom of gender identity and expression exists…I don’t think it’s that radical to not identify with a gender or even human.

The reality is that not everyone identifies as human or wants anything to do with humanism…and that’s okay. For me this is what the non-binary movement is all about. Respecting pronouns, language, and the individual.

Human is all a concept invented by who?
