Good article and I totally agree. Besides when we look at all our intrepid tech-bro "pioneers" that embrace transhumanism, it begs the obvious question. Would you want to spend eternity with them? I, for one, welcome the sweet release of death. It can't possibly be worse.

Or you could just not interact with the people you don't want to interact with.
I don't think any transhuman has a vision of transhumanity where you are physically impossible to suicide or are forced to interact with certain people.

Who else would you be interacting with? You would only exist through our own technology. You would solely exist in a predetermined state of "existence" created by us. How would that be "transhuman"? It's just a lateral form of the experience we create for ourselves now, just without the inconvenience of objective reality and immediate consequence. We don't even understand the state of our own existence. How can we move forward when we don't even know where we are?
