Thread: Transhumanism

1) “Transhumanism is the next logical step in the evolution of humankind, and it is the existential solution to the long-term survival of the human race.”
— Newton Lee, “The Transhumanism Handbook”

2) Transhumanism is a loosely defined global philosophical movement that aims to fundamentally transform the human condition through the use of technologies that significantly enhance our intellectual, physical, and psychological capabilities.

https://ascensionglossary.com/index.php/Transhumanism

3) Transhumanism seeks to realize a posthuman condition. Essentially, this movement is about replacing the organic consciousness of humans with artificially intelligent hybrids or cyborgs.

That’s a hard pass from me.

https://www.natureofhealing.org/transhumanist-agenda-future-humanity/

4) David Icke provides a succinct overview of the transhumanist agenda in this video, which is well worth watching.

5) English writer and philosopher Aldous Huxley describes a transhumanist dystopia in his 1932 novel “Brave New World,” where a genetically modified population is kept tranquil in a static, conformist, and totalitarian futuristic World State.

6) The term “transhumanism” first gained significant notoriety when used by Julian Huxley (brother of Aldous Huxley), a noted eugenicist and evolutionary biologist.

7) Julian Huxley used the term “transhumanism” in a lecture he delivered in Washington, D.C. titled “Knowledge, Morality, and Destiny.” He described his philosophy as “the idea of humanity attempting to overcome its limitations and to arrive at fuller fruition.”

8) Julian Huxley was also the first director-general of UNESCO and a founder of the World Wildlife Fund. In the second edition of his book “Religion Without Revelation” (published in 1957), he wrote the following about transhumanism.

9) Transhumanist themes have shown up in many films over the years, and certainly not by accident, considering how the elites love to mock us by hiding the truth — or in this case, their future plans — in plain sight. This site lists ten of the best ones.

https://humanparagon.com/transhumanist-films/

10) Stanley Kubrick’s classic “2001: A Space Odyssey” was one of the earliest films to showcase transhumanist themes. It is arguably one of the most influential movies of all time.

11) The sci-fi action thriller “The Matrix” is obviously one of the most well-known examples, depicting a dystopian future in which intelligent machines have enslaved humanity within a simulated reality.

12) A more recent example is “Ex Machina,” a haunting film about a programmer named Caleb Smith who tries to determine the capabilities and consciousness of a female humanoid robot named Ava. However, it turns out Ava is far more intelligent and self-aware than Caleb imagined.

13) Transhumanism has also been featured in various TV shows. Below is the trailer for the show “Humans” (premiered in 2015), which explores the themes of artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics and features anthropomorphic robots known as “synths.”

14) The transhumanist movement has accelerated rapidly over the past two decades or so. Let’s go through a chronology of some key events from this period listed on H+Pedia (along with some extra additions), before looking at other major players.

https://hpluspedia.org/wiki/History_of_transhumanism

15) Humanity+ was founded in 1998 and became legally incorporated as the World Transhumanist Association (WTA) in 2002 by philosophers Nick Bostrom and David Pearce.

16) James Hughes, Executive Director of the Institute for Ethics and Emerging Technologies, was elected secretary of the WTA in 2001. He formalized the organization’s structures and began forming an international network of local groups and volunteers.

17) In 2002, Elon Musk founded SpaceX, his private space exploration company.

https://www.spacex.com/about 

18) In 2004, Nick Bostrom and James Hughes established the Institute for Ethics and Emerging Technologies, which publishes the Journal of Transhumanism.

19) Ray Kurzweil, an American author, inventor, and futurist, published a groundbreaking book in 2005 titled “The Singularity is Near: When Humans Transcend Biology.”

Bill Gates probably describes the book better, and more concisely, than I ever could.

http://singularity.com/ 

20) The technological singularity that Ray Kurzweil refers to in his book is “the idea that technological progress, particularly in artificial intelligence, will reach a tipping point to where machines are exponentially smarter than humans.”

https://singularityhub.com/2017/03/31/can-futurists-predict-the-year-of-the-singularity/

21) Also in 2005, Nick Bostrom established The Future of Humanity Institute (FHI) at the University of Oxford. The interdisciplinary research center is focused on “predicting and preventing large-scale risks to human civilization.”

https://hpluspedia.org/wiki/Future_of_Humanity_Institute

22) In 2006, Peter Thiel donated $100,000 to the Machine Intelligence Research Institute (MIRI) and joined its board.

Thiel, an American entrepreneur and venture capitalist, is one of the world’s richest transhumanists with a net worth of $2.3 billion.

https://intelligence.org/2014/12/01/2014-winter-matching-challenge/

23) Thiel is a peculiar character, to say the least.

“Speaking of weird and unsavory, if there’s one thing that really excites Thiel, it’s the prospect of having younger people’s blood transfused into his own veins.”

https://www.inc.com/jeff-bercovici/peter-thiel-young-blood.html

24) Ah, but I digress. In 2008, the World Transhumanist Association rebranded itself as Humanity+ (aka H+ or h+).

25) That same year, Peter Diamandis, Ray Kurzweil, and Salim Ismail established Singularity University. They received funding from Google, Nokia, Genentech, Autodesk, ePlanet Capital, the X Prize Foundation, and the Kauffman Foundation.

https://su.org/about/leadership/

26) Additionally, Singularity University and NASA established a partnership to host the Executive Program and Global Solutions Program at the NASA Research Park in Moffett Field, located in Mountain View, California. It is now known as the Global Startup Program.

27) In 2009, Aubrey de Grey, a biogerontologist and high-profile advocate for life-extension, founded the SENS Research Foundation to pursue research into curing aging. He received backing from The Thiel Foundation.

https://www.fightaging.org/archives/2009/09/the-thiel-foundation/

28) It's worth noting that just the following year, in 2010, articles like this were being published.

“Google boss predicts Google implant will put the Web in your head by 2020”

https://www.cnet.com/news/google-boss-predicts-google-implant-will-put-the-web-in-your-head-by-2020/

29) In 2011, transhumanist Max More became CEO of the Alcor Life Extension Foundation, a Scottsdale, Arizona nonprofit that researches and performs cryonics — the preservation of human beings in liquid nitrogen after death — with the aim of restoring them back to life eventually.

30) Google’s X Lab also began working on an AI research project called Google Brain.

https://x.company/projects/brain/ 

31) That same year, the eccentric Russian billionaire Dmitry Itskov founded the 2045 Initiative for the development of life extension technologies. Specifically, his goal is to create avatar-based cyborg technology as a precursor to mind uploading.

http://2045.com/ 

32) Itskov is another peculiar character. He compares himself to Marvel superhero Iron Man.

“I’m motivated by the fear of death,” he says.

https://www.thesun.co.uk/tech/9613934/billionaire-dmitry-itskov-20145-initiative/

33) Here is a video from 2012 that provides an overview of the 2045 Initiative.

34) In 2012, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos and the CIA invested $15 million into D-Wave, a quantum computing company.

https://www.forbes.com/sites/alexknapp/2012/10/05/jeff-bezos-and-the-cia-invest-in-d-waves-quantum-computer/#403a6e827af4

35) Google also hired Ray Kurzweil to work on machine learning and AI.

“...it would seem that Google is becoming the most daring developer of AI, a fact that some may consider thrilling and others deeply unsettling. Or both.”

https://www.wired.com/2013/04/kurzweil-google-ai/

36) In 2013, Google co-founder Larry Page established Calico Labs with Arthur D. Levinson, ex-chairman of Apple. Calico is a life-extension research company and is incorporated under Google’s parent company, Alphabet Inc.

http://business.time.com/2013/09/18/google-extend-human-life/

37) At the Global Futures 2045 International Congress, held in 2013, newly minted Google employee Ray Kurzweil predicted that human beings would achieve digital immortality by the year 2045. He suggested that this would be accomplished via mind uploading.

https://www.kurzweilai.net/global-futures-2045-ray-kurzweil-immortality-by-2045

38) On March 11, 2013, the Global Future 2045 Congress submitted an open letter to UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon to find “a model capable of changing human consciousness and giving new meaning to life.” Here are the key components of their appeal.

http://2045.com/articles/31277.html

39) In 2014, Google acquired DeepMind Technologies and merged it with the Google Brain project.

https://techcrunch.com/2014/01/26/google-deepmind/

40) Elon Musk also ominously tweeted that AI could potentially be “more dangerous than nukes.”

https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/495759307346952192

41) The Transhumanist Party was founded on October 7th, 2014, by Zoltan Istvan, a writer and futurist.

Yes, that's right — there's a transhumanist political party in the U.S.

http://www.zoltanistvan.com/TranshumanistParty.html

42) In 2015, Elon Musk donated $10 million to The Future of Life Institute “to run a global research program aimed at keeping AI beneficial to humanity.”

https://futureoflife.org/2015/10/12/elon-musk-donates-10m-to-keep-ai-beneficial/?cn-reloaded=1

43) Additionally, Zoltan Istvan launched a presidential bid on the Transhumanist Party ticket. He also delivered Version 1.0 of his Transhumanist Bill of Rights to the U.S. Capitol. It was subsequently expanded for Version 2.0, in the link below.

https://transhumanist-party.org/tbr-2/ 

44) In 2016, Elon Musk advocated for neural enhancement to keep up with AI.

“Billionaire polymath Elon Musk has warned that humans risk being treated like house pets by artificial intelligence (AI) unless they implant technology into their brains.”

https://www.newsweek.com/elon-musk-neural-lace-ai-artificial-intelligence-465638

45) In early 2017, it was reported that Elon Musk had launched a new venture called Neuralink, to “merge the human brain with AI.”

The company, headquartered in San Francisco, develops implantable brain-machine interfaces (BMIs).

https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2017/mar/28/elon-musk-merge-brains-computers-neuralink

46) On April 19, 2017, Regina Dugan, the head of Facebook’s secretive brain-computer interface division (and former director of DARPA), demonstrated a Facebook-patented BMI “that enables the wearer to type on a computer screen just by thinking.”

https://www.blacklistednews.com/article/75184/a-free-market-future-of-braincomputer-interfaces-a-technofascist-history-of-neoeugenic.html

47) In 2018, the nonprofit Brain Preservation Foundation (BPF) announced that cryobiology research company 21st Century Medicine had won the Large Mammal Brain Preservation Prize.

https://gizmodo.com/new-brain-preservation-technique-could-be-a-path-to-min-1823741147

48) In July 2019, Elon Musk showcased the first prototypes of Neuralink’s brain chips, also known as neural laces. Below is a link to his cringeworthy presentation, which is nearly two hours long.



https://www.forbes.com/sites/alexknapp/2019/07/17/elon-musk-sees-his-neuralink-merging-your-brain-with-ai/#6cd97dd94b07

49) Though not comprehensive by any means, the above chronology should at least give you an idea of how rapidly the transhumanist movement has been accelerating since the turn of the century. But what other entities are involved in the rapid push towards a transhumanist dystopia?

50) Let’s start with the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), an Arlington, Virginia-based agency of the U.S. Department of Defense. Formed in 1958, DARPA is responsible for the development of new military technology and boasts an annual budget of $3.2 billion.

51) Examining the various DARPA projects over the past few years might make your skin crawl.

In April 2013, the Obama White House announced the BRAIN initiative, supported by DARPA.

https://obamawhitehouse.archives.gov/the-press-office/2013/04/02/fact-sheet-brain-initiative

https://www.darpa.mil/program/our-research/darpa-and-the-brain-initiative

52) This Singularity Hub article from 2014 describes DARPA’s role in nanotechnology, which is a huge component of the elites’ transhumanist endgame.

“DARPA’s New Initiative Aims to Make Nanoscale Machines a Reality”

https://singularityhub.com/2014/08/31/darpas-new-initiative-aims-to-make-nanoscale-machines-a-reality/

53) As early as 2014, DARPA announced its plan to build synthetic soldiers.

“DARPA’s New Biotech Division Wants To Create A Transhuman Future”

https://io9.gizmodo.com/darpas-new-biotech-division-wants-to-create-a-transhum-1556857603

54) This Gaia article describes five of DARPA’s more sinister programs, along with a “potentially benevolent outcome” for each.

“Inside DARPA’s Brain Initiative; 5 Programs Expose Military’s Transhumanist Agenda”

https://www.gaia.com/article/inside-darpa-brain-initiative-5-programs-expose-militarys-transhumanist-agenda

55) In 2018, DARPA announced a new program called PREPARE, “with the goal to change human genetics to defend against specific threats.”

https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-05-30/resident-evil-darpa-unveils-genetic-tuning-fight-chemical-radiation-attacks

56) In 2012, DARPA began collaborating with the National Institutes of Health (NIH) towards “advancing the development of organ-on-a-chip technology and [launching] the national tissue chips programs.”

http://www.bio-itworld.com/2019/11/21/organs-on-chips-will-make-drugs-safer-and-more-precise.aspx

57) This is by no means a rigorous breakdown of DARPA, but I think you get the idea. Make no mistake about it: This federal agency is a satanic organization running sinister high-tech programs aimed at enslaving and controlling the population in a dystopian, technocratic society.

58) Moving from one satanic organization to another, let’s take a look at NIH. Founded in 1887 and headquartered in Bethesda, Maryland, NIH is the primary U.S. government agency in charge of biomedical and public health research and possesses a massive 2019 budget of $39 billion.

59) Needless to say, NIH’s “biomedical and public health research” is just benign terminology used to hide the nefarious programs it runs, which are obviously not in the best interest of the American people. Just as with DARPA, NIH's endgame appears to be transhumanism.

60) NIH is also involved in the aforementioned BRAIN initiative, as described on its website. Once again, this repulsive organization uses friendly wording to hide the truly sinister nature of its supposedly “benevolent” programs. Sick.

https://braininitiative.nih.gov/about/overview 

61) NIH is also deeply involved in nanotechnology, having established the NIH Nano Task Force in 2006. This is described in the document below. It’s also worth noting that NIH invests over $200 million annually on nanotechnology research. Not good.

https://www.nih.gov/sites/default/files/research-training/nanotechnology-new-understanding-capabilities-approaches-improving-health.pdf

62) The following article describes transhumanists’ deep interest in nanotechnology.

“The implications are radical and there’s hardly another science or technology that transhumanists care about that won’t be influenced by nanotechnology some day.”

https://humanparagon.com/nanotechnology/ 

63) Obviously, it’s much more sinister than that, as the following paper from the International Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Journal describes.

“The nanomafia: nanotechnology’s global network of organized crime”

https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/e7a9/354e654fed9b93d62b1939b4ddadd3b7811b.pdf

64) Many of us are already contaminated with nanoparticles, aka smart dust, from chemtrails, vaccines, or other mechanisms.

Take a look at this paper.

“Neural Dust: An Ultrasonic, Low Power Solution for Chronic Brain-Machine Interfaces”

https://arxiv.org/pdf/1307.2196v1.pdf

65) Chemtrails, which include nanosized aluminum compounds, have very severe effects on the brain. Nanoparticles of aluminum are extremely inflammatory and easily penetrate the brain through various routes, such as the blood and olfactory nerves.

https://eclinik.net/what-chemtrails-are-doing-to-your-brain-are-shocking-neurosurgeon/

66) Microchipping is also a big part of the elites' transhumanist agenda, masquerading as “personal enhancement.” This can even be done secretly through forced vaccinations.

https://www.gaia.com/article/microchips-the-next-step-in-transhumanism-or-a-privacy-issue

67) Of course, we also need to be concerned about 5G, which is very integral to the elites’ transhumanist and depopulation agendas. This fantastic website details the massive risks associated with 5G, along with its connections to AI and transhumanism.

https://massawakening.org/5g-depopulation-agenda/

68) This recent Global Research article also does a great job of highlighting the dangers of 5G, as well as its connection to chemtrails, depopulation, and AI.

https://www.globalresearch.ca/5g-danger-13-reasons-5g-wireless-technology-will-be-a-catastrophe-for-humanity/5680503

69) Also part of the elites' sinister NWO plan is to have 20,000 satellites blanket the earth with 5G radiation, as detailed in this Technocracy News piece. 12,000 of these satellites will be provided by SpaceX alone.

https://www.technocracy.news/5g-from-space-20000-satellites-to-blanket-the-earth/

70) Unfortunately, to a psychotic clown like Google employee Ray Kurzweil, all of this is a dream come true.

“Ray Kurzweil’s Wildest Prediction: Nanobots Will Plug Our Brains Into the Web by the 2030s”

https://singularityhub.com/2015/10/12/ray-kurzweils-wildest-prediction-nanobots-will-plug-our-brains-into-the-web-by-the-2030s/

71) 2030s? Yeah, right. It’s gonna happen a lot sooner than that unless humanity collectively wakes up.

These sick elites and their puppets aren’t simply trying to connect the human mind to AI — they’re trying to synthesize a completely different human being altogether.

72) This is a big reason why the elites have been pushing transgenderism — it plays right into their transhumanist agenda. Ultimately, they seek to create genderless human beings, primarily through the use of AI and human augmentation technology.

https://www.theamericanconservative.com/dreher/transgenderism-as-transhumanism/

73) Jeffrey Epstein, the supposedly deceased wealthy financier and sex trafficker, was also a noted transhumanist and eugenicist who “hoped to seed the human race with his DNA by impregnating women at his vast New Mexico ranch.”

https://www.nytimes.com/2019/07/31/business/jeffrey-epstein-eugenics.html

74) Jeffrey Epstein also had connections to a number of prominent scientists, including some affiliated with Harvard and MIT.

This sheds some light on the role that top universities and some of their faculty are playing in the transhumanist NWO agenda.

https://www.nationalreview.com/corner/jeffrey-epstein-a-narcissistic-transhumanist/

75) Here's a chart of companies with the most AI patents (as of January 2019). Surprisingly, Google lags behind Microsoft and IBM, who hold the top two spots.

76) Let’s briefly take a look at some key patents, although they’re likely to make you cringe. I won’t go into the gory details of each, but feel free to check out the links for yourself if you so choose.

http://www.freepatentsonline.com/y2018/0333587.html

82) There’s so many more, but I think you get the idea. Considering how long ago some of these patents were filed, it’s safe to say that this technology is far more advanced than most people realize. Don’t be fooled by efforts to downplay it.

83) In case you still aren't convinced as to how much progress has been made in the field of AI, here’s a recent video of a sophisticated robot that has the potential to make soldiers obsolete.

84) While there are practical and benevolent uses for AI technology, particularly for medical applications, it’s important to keep in mind who is largely guiding the development of such technology — global elites. They certainly don't have humanity’s best interests in mind.

85) We are careening towards the singularity, and once we hit that point there is no turning back. Our world as we know it will never be the same — it will more than likely resemble a dystopian reality straight out of Aldous Huxley’s “Brave New World” or a film like “The Matrix.”

86) At that point, our collective society will resemble a horror show of epic proportions — exponentially worse than anything we have now. Humanity will be trapped inside a technocratic NWO matrix with seemingly no way out.

87) We can't allow these elites to destroy our identities, our personalities, our consciousness, and our souls for their own selfish pleasure or gain. That's unacceptable. All of us have been gifted with free will; let’s use that gift while we still can. Consider yourself warned.
