The question is, Do you want to live forever? In the following short documentary
you will learn about the typical worldview of Transhumanists. It is, in my
opinion, philosophically and technologically interesting to explore, but
ultimately naive and dismissive of the concepts surrounding consciousness and
the soul.
Perhaps, the most troubling aspect of Transhumanism not
addressed here is that not all of it will be elective. In fact, it might be
downright selective. From DNA
nanobots to the entire
restructuring of the human genome, the corporate state aligned with the
medical-military-industrial complex might demand that we are "optimized"
and "efficient" for us to partake in society at a cost-effective
level.
It is a concept that has been espoused by elites before.
For background, please watch Aaron Dykes' wonderful historical
review of the Fabian Society and their specific brand of socialism; they are
self-professed Wolves in Sheep's Clothing under the design of oligarchical
collectivism. As Dykes notes: in the end, it's all totalitarianism. And the
endgame is that we will pay for permission to use the Earth, and perhaps even our own
bodies.
This is not to deny that science holds amazing wonders for the
benefit of humanity, or that we should stop reaching for the stars. However,
it's paramount that we always return to the question of who is in control of the
technology. If we look at what has happened thus far, science has been hoarded
and twisted for the benefit of the few.
Moreover, the vastness of what is
being proposed by Transhumanists is worthy of the utmost caution, for the simple
fact that we have seen much lesser systems of computation and science being
rolled out well before safeguards have been properly tested. So far, the
negatives are rapidly outweighing the positives.
