This morons always make stuff sound cooler than it is.

I'm not really that into being a human, I kinda want to mesh with the machines and lose my human status. I really don't dig capitalism doing it, like neuralink, but I do want to live forever as a machine chimera, living in a fully automated post scarcity space communism era.

Sadly, transgender people existing doesn't mean any of that. It's just, you know, people existing.

Such a thing would be radically different in nature to you. You're not living forever, you're dying in order to allow something else to try to exist.

Depends on how you define yourself. For me, I am my continuity of consciousness. Everything else is just the biological machinery supporting it.
