Luddite Transhumanism

"Transhumanism: wanting to break out of our sufferable human limitations and natural shortcomings through science, technology and reason. Transhumanism, reduced: wanting to break out of our sufferable human limitations and shortcomings. Luddism: to reject technology in favour of a more natural way of life. Luddism, reduced: to reject technology. A rejection of the artificial machine that is not synonymous with an embracing of nature. A desire to transcend involuntary suffering and nature’s dictatorship that is not synonymous with the use and love of technology. Luddite Transhumanism, reduced: wanting to break out of our sufferable human limitations and natural shortcomings whilst having a distrust of both nature and technology as well. But, what else is there? Just a void?"
