Is transhumanism the ultimate redpill or the ultimate bluepill? Is shattering the limits of humanity worth the devaluation of the white race as collateral damage? Is there a middle road?

It's the next logical step following eugenics. And barring any catastrophic scenario that kills all technological progress, it's also an imminent reality.

I'd rather we selfishly skip eugenics and focus our attention on enhancing current generations.

>>130916417
Eugenics will be made obsolete by gene editing and cybernetics. You don't have to worry about getting your own enhancements first. Society will facilitate your short sighted selfish needs, as always.

Great plan. I'd be opting more for genetic modification but that would lead to disaster as well.

Oldschool transhumanism is redpilled. Neo tranhumanism (aka posthumanism) is bluepilled.

The older generation lives on through their offspring, designer humans won't.

Questionable. That's under the assumption that designer humans would be all clones from one batch, and not gene-edited (read: enhanced) babies from couples, or vat babies with combined genes from the public.

I have always felt that the human body was frail and needed to be protected, if not from nature, from ourselves. Hardsuit, soft cyber tech seems to solve a lot of those problems. Imagine a hardsuit that you were neurally connected to, kinda like a personalized sports car, just for you. An extension of your being if you will.

I don't understand why people keep pushing transhumanism. They try to control and regulate every aspect of society, do you really believe they won't start regulating our own genetics? Transhumanism is the death of freedom.

Have you seen the Matrix past the first part?
Only niggers on the dancefloor. That Neo was hacked as those guys in the GITS, hacked by some less advanced society which dared to fight the better one. Humans don't produce electricity, to live in their virtual realities the way you game players can only dream of, they consume it. Everything Morpheus told to Neo was lies.

We have been given the green light on chimeras so I'm sure that will cause a hit to future research when everyone finds out what we do. Not that its entirely unethical but someone will inevitably cross the line, I was sure what some Chinese researchers did would kick up a shitstorm but not that many people were interested.

>>
>>130919762
pretty much this, its the quick road to greatness so those that take it would not have an appreciation for it. I'm cool with the genetic engineering aspect but adding technological components to your body is where I draw the line. Just look at how having access to the whole of human knowledge in everyone's pocket has turned us all into retarded narcissists.
>>
>>130919762
Yeah, because giving up your body to become a cyborg is totally easy.
Do you realize that being a cyborg would actually be painful? Losing your body will hurt. It will be the most unnatural sensation you can imagine.

No, it's injected straight into your bloodstream and expands your circulatory system. Giant veins begat giant brains, and your skull enlarges to compensate.

Ultimate Bluepill.

It's only as humans, that we are able to appreciate life as we do. Immortals would lack that fundamental understanding, existing only as soulless, selfish beings. I'd rather die in this fleshbag than lose my humanity.

Don't attribute any worth in your birthgiven tools and abilities. Do not strife to perfect your ability to use some of them.

Instead free yourself from everything that has been put unto you. Cast everything away that is given to you "free of charge" and slave your life away in order to reassemble yourself.

Depends on how far you go. Being immortal is obviously the ultimate redpill, but if we forget about our humanity and start altering ourselves to a point where we can no longer have the human experience then it's by definition a bluepill
>>
>>130920832
I see that as one of the benefits. No guilty conscience because it was your Tay AI implant that decided you should kill them, kill them all and used logic to arrive at that decision. Only small, very tiny downside is that it's more than likely it would decide it is better off with no biological component at all and kill you too. Oh well.

As opposed to not being able to control your genetics at all, as is currently the case? Even restricted genetic freedom would be more freedom than currently exists.

Its neither. its imminent. its evolution, duh. And when the species as a whole evolves, noone will give a fuck about race because it wasnt important in the first place. Besides, helping the species thrive and become better as a whole is far superior of a feat in life then being an average racist fag bettering noone and nothing.

>Immortals would lack that fundamental understanding, existing only as soulless, selfish beings.
This is just an assertion. "Understanding" anything is just a matter of brain structure and function, and I see no reason why this couldn't be the case for transhumans. Transhumanism could also lead to vast increases in IQ, which would lead to a greater understanding of everything in general.

>I'd rather die in this fleshbag than lose my humanity.

This is why we as Whites need transhumanism. So that our race can also survive. If only Jews embrace transhumanism, eventually the Jews would have the world all to themselves, would be able to destroy all goyim with their technology, and have the world all to themselves. We must become transhuman in order to defend our race.

That doesn't really address the problem. It's a natural consequence to manipulating with something so delicate. However shnitzlebro is right. It's essentially stating that humans do not need God to reach a state of pure immortality and does not need Christ to become perfect taking away this fallen body. It's saying that we can achieve perfection and immortality on their own, they can become god. Which was exactly Lucifer's mentality when falling from heaven. This is the beginning of fate sealed long ago. A trumpet will blast, there is a knock at the door, do not be decided.

Transhumanism already happened, in our real past, which was more advanced than now. Some of the humans walking around ain't human. They are a bunch of assholes. We would just end up creating more soulless humanoid looking machines. Earth is a proving ground for souls. There is no escape from eternal reincarnation and suffering.

And how is "cheating" in this case a bad thing? And is it any more immoral than eugenics, where future generations are just born into good genetics? Transhumanists have to do a lot more work to become Übermenschen compared to people who won the genetic lottery, comparatively speaking.

Why pick between the two? Have both until one gets so advanced the other is completely obsolete. Be the best ungodly abomination you can be.
>>
>>130919762
I don't think it's cheating, because the things you could achieve through genetic engineering and other means could never be achieved normally. Someone who wants to become an übermensch would not reject transhumanism just because it's too easy, there is no point in making things intentionally difficult.

Superhumanism will always be superior to Transhumanism. Just like being a supermale is superior to being a transgender faggot.

And anyway why would you want to 'transfer' your 'soul' to Facebook or Google and live as a slave in their computer systems? Haven't you noticed that the clowns who promote 'transhumanism' are corporate flunkeys who want you to become a submissive slave connected to their machines?

Yes, but flight existed. Birds flew, which is how we figured out how to do it.

Changing yourself into an entirely different species is pure fantasy. No one can even describe how that process might work, let alone demonstrate how to do it.

Transhumanism is literally just The Rapture for dumb nerds.
