None of those make it inherently anti-human. That’s like saying a man who wants to be a woman is also anti-man.
If I want to be stronger or smarter or anything through technological means, why would that make me anti-human? I can even be prohuman despite being transhuman.
I’m glad you found the definition. Go people who call themselves, trans humanists believe, because it is antihuman.
Look up TESCREAL
And no, it’s not the same as saying a trans woman is anti-man, because trans. Women don’t want to exterminate all of the men after they complete their transition.
If you want to be stronger, go to the . If you want to be , read more and learn critical thinking skills. Technology will not help you with either of those.
Look, silicon valley didn’t invent transhumanism in 2023. It’s at least half a century older. TESCREAL is clearly antihuman but just because billionaires want to use transhumanism for bad purposes doesn’t make it inherently bad. Look up definition of inherently.
I wasn’t using word trans there because it wasn’t my point. Just because I want to improve myself with technology doesn’t make me evil. Maybe the evil part is exterminating humans, not improving humans who want to be improved. Maybe forcing an ideology on othet people is the evil part? Transhumanism itself has nothing to do with killing.
Sentences in your last paragraph are so broke I have no idea what you are saying.
While technically correct, fascism and transhumanism are deeply intertwined in their quest to eliminate suffering through technology. That’s pretty much what the Nazis propagated with genocide as their tool of choice to achieve a “healthy race” or whatever. You will see a lot of self proclaimed transhumanists (and especially the rich ones) are really just anti-humanists in their methods. Elon Musk doesn’t want to develop brain chips to cure illnesses. He lies. He wants to own us.
When you say “a lot of” you are talking about less than ten people. They are just the loudest ones because they literally own their media platforms. I’m sure there are orders of magnitude more scientists and just scifi fans who dream of transhumanism for the good.
Have you considered that maybe rich are inherently evil? Or maybe forcing the thing on other people is the evil part, not the thing itself?
Yeah… And who will be able to pay for these “upgrades”? The ones that have them, will be the “real ones”. The ones that not, will be the ones who are to eliminate, or to sell the cure for the illness of being a human without any tech inside.
Are you killing everyone who can’t affors as fancy phone as you? Are you killing homeless people because they don’t live in a house like you? Am I suddenly evil if I glue a helmet on my head permanently?
Evil people will do evil stuff what ever means they want and that doesn’t make transhumanism inherently evil.

The Autism speaks movement is far bigger than ten people so I have to strongly disagree here.
