Transhumanism offers "no" guarantees that'll eradicate human imperfections without replacing this undesirable behavior with far greater idiosyncrasies.

I concur that what we are seeing here is a naïve and blind faith in transhumanism. This diagnosis explains a great deal of what we are witnessing in so many different dimensions. It is often framed in relation to science, yet entails a rejection of scientific process in favour of a mythological image of science that is merely technology, or better still, an idol built from technology.

As I've said before: we are being asked to take sides in a cultural battle between technology and the sciences. And technology, backed as it is by billions in cashflow, is dominant. I concur with Thorsteinn: we must choose to be human, to reaffirm our humanity. And those of us that do will inevitably find ourselves positioned as the resistance in this new forever war.

Technology, is backed by billions in cashflow with the objective of absconding with trillions while a slew of manufactured crises are used to transform the entire planet into a neofeudal biosecurity surveillance state irregardless of the collateral damage.
