Imo the “they aren’t real transhumanists” line is similar to christians saying “well christian nationalists aren’t real christians”. This is, in fact, a real form of transhumanism as it is actually practiced by one particular network or community.

yeah i guess it’s just odd because my interest in transhumanism was entirely based in radical bodily autonomy & self determination. it was also informed by queer, feminist, & class theory, however, which is def the bigger influence for me. i just find it bizarre so many tech bros went rightwing.

"This is, in fact, a real form of transhumanism as it is actually practiced by one particular network or community." i don't know if there needs to be some "no true scotsman" to this when the concept / philosophy are used for vastly different ends with only the same phrasing

Oh, of course. I’m not saying they’re not real, just that they absolutely missed the fucking point. As I see it (implied)
