print("Transhumanism, often abbreviated to H+, is an ideology on the far pro-technology end of the technological spectrum, that believes that everyone should upgrade themselves with technology to overcome both the most basic and most complex of Humanity's challenges and eventually conquer the galaxy. The ultimate objective is for all persons to reach immortality and transcend all other political theorems.")

History

Transhumanist ideas first arouse out of the eugenics movement through certain eugenicists trying to grasp at the question of "Can human biology be improved beyond humans limits?" this first started with the 1920s. Soon after there were multiple ideas regarding the possibility of bionic implants and their use to improve human biology.

The effect science fiction had on the coming Transhumanist movement is not to be understated as it was a incredibly impactful literary genre and allowed the general population to grasp at Transhumanist ideas and peak into the future and it allowed sciene fiction authors to explore ideas of that proto-Transhumanists posed.

Beliefs

Transhumanists believe in the enhancing of the human to transcend the human. That base idea is why it is called Transhumanism. Transhumanism very much though can not be said to be Anti-Humanist or Post-Humanist as its central goal is the improving of the human condition and not the abolition or destruction of the human.

Improving of the human (condition) for Transhumanism can be done through many ways. Biological improvement is one of these as is also mechanical improvement.

Variants

Sub-Ideologies

Bio-Transhumanism

Bio-Transhumanism advocates for Transhumanism to be practiced through the use of gene-editing technology like CRISPR or through other means such as inserting specific bacteria into your gut and creating certain kinds of bacteria culture in oneself as a means of transcending the human through biological means.

Bio-Transhumanism doesn't go against regular Transhumanism as it is just a subset of it and doesn't despise mechanical or electric implants
