Watchman: The Trans-humanism Movement Is Viewed As Evil Because It Raises Concerns About The Potential For Individuals, Like Musk, To Exert Godlike Control Over Others’ Moods And Emotions

In a twisted vision of transhumanism, posthumans might, as philosopher Nick Bostrom ominously suggests, “read, with perfect recollection and understanding, every book in the Library of Congress.” In a similar vein, futurist and transhumanist Ray Kurzweil—who has been entangled with Google since 2012—would see them swiftly consume the entirety of the World Wide Web.

Imagine a future when earth’s inhabitants are not humans, but cyborgs—robot like beings with both biological and mechanical components. With exosuits for added strength, cybernetic arms and legs, surgically-implanted earbuds for advanced hearing, bionic eyes for X-ray and infrared vision, and digitally-enhanced brains, these “super-bots” think and act at lightning speed. Nanobots inside their bodies work continually to maintain and repair organs and tissues. Equally impressive are their “organic parts,” which have been genetically engineered for health. These super beings may sound like something out of a sci-fi movie, but they are the very real aspiration of influential business leaders, government officials, biotech engineers, scientists and futurists around the world, who are spearheading a philosophical and socio-political movement known as transhumanism. In a nutshell, the transhumanist movement seeks to develop and use technology to radically transform humanity beyond its…

The New World Order Brings a New Look Into Society If society must be transformed into Technocracy, then the humans who live there must be transformed into Trans-humans. In other words, a perfectly efficient, utopian society envisioned by Technocrats would be quickly soiled if it were inhabited by weak-minded and imperfect humans in their present form. This is exactly why we see many Technocrats who also identify as Transhumans as well. Some well-known names that come to mind include Elon Musk (Tesla), Jeff Bezos (Amazon), Ray Kurzweil (Google) and Peter Thiel (PayPal). To grasp this larger picture, it is necessary to address three questions: What is Technocracy? What is Transhumanism? How is Scientism the glue that binds them together? What is Technocracy? In 1939, The Technocrat magazine wrote: Technocracy is the science of social engineering, the scientific operation of the entire social…
