Posthumanism

Posthumanism is the theoretical position almost no one in traditional circles is talking about, but it is the most potent current perspective in literary theory. It is an amalgam of a variety of approaches, but has a different character than them. If postmodern literary theories are anti-humanist, posthumanism goes a step further by seeing the category of the human as something that needs to eradicated for the sake of the planet.

the phrase “You’ll own nothing and be happy” originates from a 2016 video by the World Economic Forum (WEF), summarizing an essay written by Danish politician Ida Auken.

Klaus Schwab, the founder and executive chairman of the World Economic Forum, has also referenced this phrase in his book and public statements, suggesting that in the future, people will own nothing and be happy due to the shift towards a circular economy, where products are rented or shared instead of bought, and everything is designed to be reused or recycled.

Mathew 24:22..
I spent so much time in fear ( not for myself ) but others especially next generation. Im afraid there is no stopping this freight train till He returns. Its completely out of my control

Dear Dr. Scott, do I understand from your argument in which you have referred to posthumsnism as a 'cult' that you support anthropocentrism ? Thank you. I enjoyed your lecture.

8:49 I thought queer theory was against heteronormativity. It seems to have nothing to say about homonormativity because it doesn't imagine becoming hegemonic itself.

This is so important. Personally, not sure I would call this a product of the Enlightenment, but the capture of Universities by a philosophy that considers certain areas solved and not open for debate is a current deep problem. Bret Weinstein has been talking about this. I’m sure Dr. Weinstein and Dr. Masson would not agree, but I’ll bet a gentlemanly and productive discussion could be had.

All possible consciousness will merge into one inside the computronium, all matter of the universe will combine and the universe will become God.
