"I would suggest that, actually, we've been living in the transhumanist era for 50 years or more. We're half a century into the transhumanist age, and really, it began with the contraceptive pill."
Mary Harrington is a self-described “reactionary feminist,” contributing editor at UnHerd, and author of “Feminism Against Progress.” We sat down together at the Dissident Dialogues Festival to discuss the intersection of progress, individual freedom, technology, and, ultimately, transhumanism.
"What that opens up is a whole theoretically infinite spectrum of engineering of ourselves—if you like—of seeing human nature itself as a set of problems to be solved," says Ms. Harrington.
She believes that believing a "progress narrative" leads to the misguided attempt to create heaven on earth.
"It just won't matter how often we set out trying to wage war on our own nature. It will just find a way of coming back," she says.
