This video unfairly conflates Transhumanism with eugenics despite of the fact that Transhumanism and Eugenics are not identical

@PeopleofNY27@TheAtlantic@BernieSanders Yes we could vote against billionaires, but we shouldn't reduce transhumanists into anti-human tech-bro stereotypes because transhumanists already have been "stereotyped & misunderstood" for years, and transhumanism is a diverse philosophy with no unified view.
And there also should be variations of enhancements (biotech or cybernetics or exosuits, alongside with specialized enhancements too) for people to freely choose instead of one fixed uniform standard.
Here's what I think Transhumanism should be like is that people should be free to choose any enhancement (whether cybernetics or biotech) because morphological freedom is a freedom/right, we also should make enhancement both "regulated & voluntary & consensual & democratized".

@enthusiast_nft Ok but I don't think we should reduce transhumanists into anti-human tech-bro stereotypes, and transhumanism is not even a unified ideology due to being ethically/ideologically/politically diverse, and just because I'm a Transhumanist doesn't mean I want to replace humans.
@jaredvaldez4 Ok but let's not conflate Transhumanism with these Tech elites, and let's not conflate Transhumanism with human replacement because Transhumanism is more like about "using tech & science to enhance human capabilities/capacities & extend lifespan".
Bernie is right. Transhumanism is a crime against humanity and should be outlawed. We must understand that machines are a utility for humankind, no the other way around. We have reached an infliction point in history.
Instead of moving "at the speed of science," we need to pause and consider the ethical implications of artificial/super intelligence and ensure safeguards are in place to protect humanity and planet Earth. We must prove that human beings are worthy of being the caretakers and dominant species of this planet and show our value.
We need altruistic leaders who see beyond themselves. We must understand the importance of ethics in scientific endeavors and more. Just because we can do something doesn't mean we should.
We need to address the root causes of our systematic failures, which incentivize lust for power and control and leads to oppression to the detriment of society, and a loss of individual freedoms, liberty, expression, and what it means to be human.
The behavior of anti-transhumanist hard-liners is "insane & divisive & tribalistic", and their characterization of Transhumanism is very inaccurate

@MAGAGranny72341@SenSanders I don't see anything wrong with "Medicare for all" even though I don't agree with his overly broad unfair characterization of Transhumanism
@SenSanders Right about tech elites wanting to replace humans
Wrong about the Transhumanism ideology
Transhumanism is not about replacing humans, and more about using technology & science to enhance human capabilities & capacities & extend lifespan
