there wolf posted:More than once in trans spaces I've come across people wondering why transhumanists have such a bad reputation and it's entirely because their image of a transhumanist is a gender-queer person wanting cool robot bodies and cyberpunk body mods. The saddest thing is there are actually decent transhumanist communities. Some of them have been doing theory since the sixties. Some were part of the trends that became cybernetic socialism, others were outgrowths of socialist-feminism, others were the works of singular trans people with a utopian vision of not feeling like poo poo all the time. It's just that none of them, not a single one, is based on some piece of poo poo fanfic author's rewrite of Science. A bit like the women in the New Atheist movement who workedfor decades on social and academic projects only to get mugged by a bunch of has-been lecture circuit grifters.
