You’re not free from tyranny of your own genome, for example you can’t really choose not to die of old age. If some ontogeny editing genome therapy will appear i.e. the technology that will cancel and reverse ageing, and you will try to interfere with other people’s choice to end their own ageing, then you will be in a huge trouble. The same is about artificial bodies/intelligence, or augmented intelligence. Live as long as you like the way you like, in a cave if you want. Nobody wants to change you by force, you’ll just have more options.

Evolutionary destiny? I think the article put so much light in your face that all you were able to see was darkness. Evolution is a natural occurrence, not a policy imposed on anyone by insane people who hate themselves and therefore want to change everyone and everything. If you want to be connected to a computer, please go ahead, but I will resist this technological tyranny up until the day I die.

Stop spreading your obscurantist, anti-scientific lies. Transhumanism is just when we (all humans who have thinking brains) take our evolutionary destiny into our own hands.
