    Transhumanism is bullshit marketing. What they really want it to take away your ability to use compute without paying them rent and being under supervised conditions. This is why they are buying up all the essential components - so we can’t have them.

    Then we can’t organize, we can’t manage our lives, we cannot dissent. They can silence us, they can erase us, they can control and manipulate us. And if they wanted to, they could kill us off and hide the evidence (or claim that it was faked).

    Welcome to the global pantopticon.

      Look, I’ve long had an interest in futurism/transhumanism/extropianism, etc…more as a what-if scenario.

      But if these fuckers are going to be the ones determining how it plays out, using their network state bullshit from weird creeps like Curtis Yarvin, Thiel, and the authors of The Sovereign Individual?

      Well, they can fuck all the way off. They all strike me as johnny-come-lately bullshit artists with just a fuck-ton of money and only thinking of themselves.
