"Transhumanism" Is the EXTERMINATION of Humans - And It's Happening NOW
The Transhumanist Agenda does not enhance or improve us. It removes us.
T r a n s h u m a n i s m
Type the term into Google and a world of possibilities emerges. The gateway to a future freed from mankind’s greatest weaknesses and follies. A techno-dreamscape of human potential. Limitless, dazzling, a miracle-turned-reality.
Wikipedia says it best:
Transhumanism is a philosophical and intellectual movement which advocates the enhancement of the human condition by developing and making widely available sophisticated technologies that can greatly enhance longevity and cognition.
“Greatly enhance longevity and cognition?”
“Sophisticated technologies” that are “widely available”?
Well that all sounds pretty good. Forget that, that sounds frickin amazing!
wait
Not that Transhumanism. You mean the shiny, idyllic, next-leap-of-evolution Transhumanism? The one where we use cutting-edge, life-altering, life-extending capabilities to reshape human consciousness like some celestial keyhole to the Promised Land?
How fantastic. No, we’re talking about the other Transhumanism. The one being pushed by the (quasi) people with the power to actually make it happen. We’re talking about the no-more-humans Transhumanism.
And what better way to uncloak this exterminatory agenda, than by exposing the very pillars that uphold it?
Let’s spotlight the truth in plain sight, reading between the lines of those heart-warming, hunky-dory buzzwords. Here are the three foundational pillars that could, ironically, bring the world as we know it tumbling down.
Pillar #1: Human Worth(lessness)
What is a human worth to you? Your mom? Your best friend? Somebody to talk to, somebody to love, somebody to see once in a blue moon when the excuse is just right?
What do people mean to you? Are they fully fleshed out? Or are they blurry, insubstantial like cardboard cutouts? Personas more than persons?
What is the purpose? Points of contact? Shared interests of convenience? A means to an end? A journey unto itself? A fruitful, life-long, deep-seated relationship?
Could they be interchanged? Could they be replaced? By machines?
When we think of what it is to be human, we often think of one thing. Something that cannot be replaced by computing devices or the most advanced artificial intelligence humanoids fathomable. That is, the soul.
Soulless or Soulful?
In a time long before ours, the writings and musings of Greek poets approached this concept in two primary ways. One was the thing a human no longer possesses in death. The second conception went a little further, describing some sort of ‘essence’ that departed the body upon death and headed straight for the Underworld.
Other ancient conceptions of the soul view it in slightly broader terms, defining an “ensouled” being as anything alive and conscious. According to some of the early philosophers, the soul was more closely tied to higher cognitive processes (i.e., complex thinking) but detached from basic, corporeal drives like hunger.
More modern conceptions of the soul have explored its application to uniquely human conditions and abilities. Some argue that humans, along with cetaceans like whales and dolphins, may be the only organisms on the planet to have a soul.
Is the soul something that can only truly exist within a theistic framework? Or is it free to roam and float, a boundless energy easily conceived within a secular universe? Is it strictly reserved to each individual or is it merely one facet of an immeasurable One that interpenetrates all?
Perhaps we can turn to a seminal scientist by the name of Duncan Macdougal. Way back in 1907, he penned a paper called the “Hypothesis Concerning Soul Substance Together with Experimental Evidence of The Existence of Such Substance.”
While replicating his ‘experiment’ today would probably be impossible (in part, due to ethical objections), at the time, Macdougal was able to put six near-death patients on a special scale. What he determined was that people lost 21 grams at the moment they died. Later, it was reported that Macdougal also conducted the same experiment on 15 dying canines, but found no decrease in weight when they died.
According to Macdougal, he controlled for all conceivable variables. The loss of weight was not due to evaporating moisture, evacuation of urine and feces, air from the lungs, or anything else. The weight loss occurred instantly at the very moment of death, as if the soul was leaving the body…
While the experiment has been largely rejected by the scientific community for selective biases and flawed methodology, that wasn’t enough to keep it from inspiring a movie, “21 Grams”.
But at the end of the day, it doesn’t matter, does it? After all, most contemporary conceptions of the ‘soul’ place it as something immaterial. It is not your mind, or body, but something greater, something giving you the unique humanness that separates you from the baser denizens of the Earth.
Can Machines replace that?
Planned Obsolescence
According to Goldman Sachs, “generative AI could expose the equivalent of 300mn full-time jobs to automation.” In other words, we could be looking at over a quarter of a billion jobs replaced or fundamentally changed by artificial intelligence. With ChatGPT and other AI software cropping up all the time, is anyone really surprised?
Consider, for a moment, the fact that “a computer can do a single operation including data fetch in about 40 nanoseconds. Compare this to the human neuron which collects inputs from a synapse, processes it, and transfers it to the next neuron in about 5 milliseconds. This would mean that a computer system is 125,000 times faster than the human neuron”
However, this superior speed of processing does not mean computers can outperform the human brain across numerous neural tasks. Because the volume of computations and interrelations between those computations is far higher and slower in a computer, the human often wins.
Or do we?
There are seemingly infinite forms and deviations of AI and machine learning proliferating. Famous futurist Ray Kurzweil has long foretold “The Singularity,” a point at which humans and machines fuse, allowing us to upload our cognitive ‘data’ (our brains) into the cloud. At this point, we theoretically live forever.
Live? Or exist? And who are we at that point? Certainly not humans…
Just think of all that AI has done, can do, and will do. From the mundane to the profound, the capabilities are mind-boggling. You've probably seen or heard of its amazing renderings and writings, challenging the careers of screenwriters, artists, and other ‘creators.’ Perhaps you’ve seen the convincing deep fakes of celebrities and politicians, getting realer and realer every day.
Or maybe you’ve heard of students spewing out term papers in no time at all with the right ChatGPT prompts.
The question isn’t what can AI do, it’s what can’t it?
Factory workers - replaceable
Office workers - replaceable
Teachers - replaceable
Accountants - replaceable
Cashiers - replaceable
Drivers - replaceable
Human Resources - replaceable
Bank Tellers - replaceable
Techies - replaceable
Paralegal - replaceable
And if you think your job, position, or career field isn’t soon to be obsolete, you’re probably in for a surprise. It may happen overnight, or it may happen seemingly innocuously, with the slow, subtle ‘integration of AI.’
Perhaps, you’re just using it to increase productivity. Maybe you’re just using it for simple input/output, training it for future use. What you’re really training, of course, is your replacement. With 1 trillion parameters and training for 300 billion words, ChatGPT 4 has no end in sight. As long as we continue to feed into it, it continues to grow.
But ChatGPT, as disruptive as it is, is just one tool for generative AI. Think about all the other cybernetic systems and newfangled potentialities across industries.
Not to mention, their use in the military!
While all this may sound exciting and mind-expanding (and in many ways, it is), what we must remember are those who seize to control it. Even former Secretary of State and longtime Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) member, Henry Kissinger, recognizes the importance of pumping the brakes.
In a grim warning to the world, Kissinger and Harvard’s professor Graham Allison conclude that the “catastrophic consequences” of unrestrained AI advancement “are so compelling that leaders in governments must act now.”
From a cursory glance, not only are we not providing checks and balances for AI, but we’re pushing it with all our might. And part of that push leads us right into our own bodies.
Pillar #2: Human (Dis)Embodiment
The human organism is an infinitely complex ‘system,’ ceaselessly performing interrelated functions on a micro and macro scale. Your organs, your cells, your synapses. Your immune system, your antibodies, your sweat, blood and tears.
Over the past few years, we’ve learned a lot about our bodies, in some cases, far more than we’ve wanted. After introducing a novel bio-pharmaceutical product into many of our bodies, we’ve had the opportunity to observe the effects.
The question is, at what point do we cease to be human? At what point are we a percentage non-human that is greater than the percentage human? Can it happen instantaneously given the right procedure or exposure, or is it a progressive slide into something other?
Are robots becoming humans or are humans becoming robots? Is it both? Neither? Some hybrid constitution of the two?
We’ve seen what we’re allowed to see, but what’s in the woodwork, compartmentalized in covert programs behind an onion of security layers?
Are organic robotoids already among us? Is Joe Biden one of ’em???
Jokes aside, it’s not hard to let the imagination run wild and feverish as you contemplate a future not far from now, where the human visage is indistinguishable from a humanoid’s.
The real question is, what do we do about all this? Is it just the inevitability of modern advancements? Should we just accept that it’s happening, that transhumanism is as certain as the Sun rising tomorrow? Should we push for it, because it’s ultimately for the betterment of civilization?
Or maybe, just maybe, we should take a step back. Maybe, just maybe, those pushing this the hardest have a particular plan in mind…
Rise of “The Useless Class”
According to author, historian, and anointed ‘intellectual,’ Yuval Noah Harari, the rise of AI will also give rise to an underbelly of societal urchins he terms “the useless class.” As he describes it, these individuals will not only be unemployed due to AI, but they will be unemployable.
In other words, they’ll be disposable.
Harari goes on to deprecate the unique human experience, saying that “humans have no souls” and are essentially now, just “hackable animals.” All of the subtle chemical changes, shifts in mood and emotion, thought processes, and everything tied to our neuroplastic abilities and diverse physical traits - it’s all just governable by some authoritative entity.
And Yuval Noah Harari is the man(?) to head that governor.
And if you think Harari is just some guy with crazy opinions, think again. Revered by many for his ‘work,’ Yuval is the best-selling author of “Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind,” which opens with the first chapter, “An Animal of No Significance.”
He is also a leading advisor to the World Economic Forum (WEF). During its 2020 annual meeting in Davos, Switzerland, Yuval made his forecast - and intention - very clear. Your life will be controlled by algorithms, like it or not:
Already today billions of people trust the Facebook algorithm to tell us what is new, the Google algorithm tells us what is true, Netflix tells us what to watch, and the Amazon and Alibaba algorithms tell us what to buy.
In the not-so-distant future, similar algorithms might tell us where to work and who to marry, and also decide whether to hire us for a job, whether to give us a loan, and whether the central bank should raise the interest rate.
Finally, technology might disrupt not just our economy, politics and philosophy – but also our biology.
In the coming decades, AI and biotechnology will give us godlike abilities to reengineer life, and even to create completely new life-forms. After four billion years of organic life shaped by natural selection, we are about to enter a new era of inorganic life shaped by intelligent design.
While Yuval’s atheistic beliefs clearly inform his visions for humanity’s future, he does seem to believe in some form of a god. But who? Is it him? The other titans of industry, intellectualism, and government globetrotting to Davos in their private jets?
Who will have the “godlike abilities to reengineer life”? And why should they be the ones to have it?
The Internet of Bodies
Speaking of new life and intelligent design, how about the internet? Since its unofficial birth in the 1960s, this thing we all know and use has become something we could have never fathomed.
Who could have anticipated the way we function today? We have advanced microcomputers in our pockets that can seamlessly connect to virtually anywhere in the world, communicating information across the vast arrays of time and space.
We are essentially already cyborgs, spending many hours during the day - whether for work or leisure - staring at screens, connecting devices, and entering a reality that is not, in fact, the physical world.
Seeing how connected we already are, perhaps it’s no leap to go from hooked up to the internet to hooked up to the Internet of Bodies (IOB)? Described by many as an “ecosystem,” this collection of devices and data can not only track and measure your bodily metrics, but change their corresponding physical processes.
As many have noted, regulations concerning all this ‘data’ are not well-established. It’s not well understood who would own the data, use it, sell it, or manage it in, say, cases of national or global security risks. But forget geopolitical events - what about personal medical privacy? Is your body even yours anymore?
Whether a coffee maker or smartwatch, many of our devices are already connected to a greater network. But what happens when these technologies are used to govern your daily habits?
“We will be under measure of computation, in every aspect of our lives in the future, from what you eat, who you date, what you buy on the internet, how much energy you use, but also… What are your vital signs? How well are you doing in terms of health? What kind of specific genetic quirks do you have? What’s your genome telling about your health?”
And while this may sound groundbreaking and incredibly useful, how much do they really care about your health? Is it your health or the health of some quasi-human? At what point, when health issues are ameliorated, are we even organic beings? Nanobots in your bloodstream? Artificial organs, neural networks, and biometrics?
Aren’t the people pushing this the same people who want every baby injected with mRNA? The ones who lied to us about COVID-19 and wanted to push a ‘vaccine passport’ to track and control our daily activities? Aren’t these the same people who have amassed vast wealth and flaunt it, but lecture us about our carbon footprints?
Those who champion the use of algorithms to manipulate millions?
Aren’t these the same people who want a “carbon-neutral” world? How would that be possible? How would that not lead to… depopulation?
Pillar #3: Human (De)Population
Last but not least, is the most sinister aspect of the Transhumanist Agenda.
While the previous two pillars can all lead to de facto depopulation, there is a more overt effort underway. Whether you consider the ramifications of sterilizing youth under the guise of ‘gender affirmation’ or the worldwide consequences of a dangerous gene-altering injection, the demise of humanity and humanness seems to be accelerating.
With many people now scrambling to detox from both the bioweapon of COVID-19 and the bioweapon of the “vaccine,” the conspiracy theories of yesteryear are becoming the conspiracy facts of today…
With anomalous excess mortality and morbidity rates, especially among the young, one can only stop and wonder, when will this madness end? The head of the World Health Organization (WHO) has already warned that a new pandemic is coming, one that will make COVID-19 look like the sniffles. Will it be a new pandemic, or immune system degradation from the massively administered shots as previously predicted by medical experts?
Will it be increasingly weaker immune systems festering with new viruses and illnesses, spreading them all around? Will chronic inflammation lead to other issues, such as the newly termed “turbo cancers”?
Fortunately, the uptake of the new ‘booster’ shots is “abysmal.”
But what about another dimension of depopulation that few people consider? What about all this carbon nonsense? Will culling 200,000 cattle over three years meet the global climate goals?
How about 41,000 cows in the next 10 weeks? Does that appease the Climate Czar?
Will Sith Lord and WEF founder Klaus Schwab be happy once we all eat ze bugs? After all, we’re told they’re incredibly versatile. We’re told that through “insect farming” we can enjoy foods that are full of “protein, healthy fats, and vitamins.” And most importantly, leave a “minimal [carbon] footprint.”
Never mind that something called “chitin” constitutes much of an insect’s body, which is exactly what we shouldn’t be eating.
What does chitin do, exactly? Well, just consider the one-two punch of illness and bug-eating. Assuming millions of people are slowly experiencing immune system degradation from the mRNA shots, eating grasshoppers and beetles will only further that deterioration.
The chitin in these insects is actually the perfect ‘armor’ many pathogens need.
“Some of these parasites contain chitin coats that protect them from the harsh conditions in the animal body or the environment. Some pathogens use chitinase to invade or exploit the chitin-containing structures of their host to establish successful infection or to be transmitted from one vertebrate to another via insect vectors.”
In other words, the mRNA injections weaken your immune system and make you more vulnerable to pathogens. The chitin in your diet makes you further vulnerable to pathogens.
But all of that is just a small piece of the depopulation puzzle. A new chimeric virus from a bio-lab like the Wuhan Institute could be released. More draconian climate regulations could be coming.
This would reduce viable food. It would reduce available energy. It would reduce jobs and destroy livelihoods. It would lead to mass starvation in the Third World. It would lead to new authoritarian measures like those forced under COVID-19, this time under the guise of a “climate emergency.”
And if our Transhumanist overlords can’t convince or coerce the populace into accepting increasingly stringent restrictions, they’ll just manufacture a climate disaster.
Will we finally be “carbon-neutral” if we just stop using toilets, eating beef, watching television, flying on planes, driving in cars, taking showers, raising livestock, using AC, using heat, and planting trees? Is that all it takes?
This isn’t just about carbon dioxide. It’s about all carbon compounds. We’re talking about carbon here, as in the fundamental building block of all things living on this planet. As in, the thing that life on Earth would be impossible without…
Transhuman or Sans Human?
We have a decision to make. Two roads. One is where we set guardrails and boundaries. Where we reject those who are pushing this most, recognizing that they do not have our best interests at heart. One is the belief in the human soul, in the immeasurable creativity of the human mind and heart, and the biological need for an organic collective. One is the path to a better future, technologically advanced but not technologically dependent. Powerful but personal. With externalities to match internalities.
A higher vibration. A frequency above the flat affect of artificial existence.
Then there is the other choice. A world where we plunge headfirst into the abyss. Where initial excitement and curiosity give way to a dark, cold realization: there’s no turning back.
A world where humans are devoid of purpose and worth. Where relationships are desensitized and everyday activities sterilized.
A place of negative emotions, if emotions are even permitted. A reality of fancy facades, false illusions, and total intrusion. A system of control. A prison of the mind.
The choices are clear as day, but only if we clear our heads, heed our hearts, and free our souls.
Are there real connections in an artificial world? Is there community? Do transhumans reassure each other when times are tough? Do they jest and tease, poke and prod, laugh and cry?
Do they experience the full spectrum of success and struggle, from soaring highs to sinking lows? The good, the bad, the indifferent? Are they real in any meaningful sense?
Clearly, it’s time to make a choice. The bifurcation awaits. Our future awaits. We can choose to enhance humanity cautiously, with love and belief in our potential, or we can follow the false prophets of our AI gods.
Transhuman or Nonhuman? Evolution or Dissolution? End of the beginning, or beginning of the end?
The decision is ours to make. So long as we’re here to make it.
A comprehensive and well-written article! Thoroughly enjoyed it.
I could hardly help but notice when Harari says, "WE will be under measure of computation, in every aspect of OUR lives in the future, from what YOU eat, who YOU date, what YOU buy on the internet, how much energy YOU use, but also… What are YOUR vital signs?"
He goes from WE to YOU. I guess he doesn't mean WE after all.
What an extraordinary expose. So well articulate, well writen and thinking. Thank you so much.
