I am Neo-Human

Neo-Human, yeah, it’s a thing. There is a lot of mumbo-jumbo in all the labels, but there is a difference. The Neohuman mission is to realize humanity’s potential by first realizing our own and then contributing what we know to those of like mind so that we realize the evolution of the species. A neo-human abandons all in pursuit of knowledge: ancestors, god, culture, gender roles, and all other constructs, all in the pursuit of being self-realized. Why? To evolve. Because to evolve in the feild of time is what it means to be human.

Neo-Human is a concept that emphasizes the ability to evolve and realize humanity’s potential. Neo-humans strive to be logical, rational, responsible, and committed individuals who strive for measurable advancement and embrace knowledge and education. They believe in empowered humanity, not cultures or tribes, and their core value is that ignorance impedes and education liberates. It is about cooperation, because that is the human superpower. We stand together or perish alone. You can do nothing by yourself, and all of what you do is for the benefit of humanity.

I am a neo-human. It’s a thing, not a badge or a bumper sticker, it’s a deeply personal thing. In this article, I will try to break it down. Yes, there is a difference.

First, let’s get this gender-bending thing out of the way. Neo-human is not about gender or sex. There are only two sexes: male and female. Man and woman are gender roles defined by a culture. A role is a role. Roles don’t define you. You define yourself. You are free to. If you accept that you are free, then you are. If you don't, then you are not. That is not up to anyone but you. You don’t have to be “something else” to “not” adhere to a role to prove anything. A role is a role. It is, by definition, made up. Until you figure that out, then you are just pretending anyway, so enjoy the pretense. Society's immaturity about sexuality and it’s wilful ignorance about human beings have just risen to the level of absurdity. Sex has no deep meaning. It’s just sex. Humans have been doing it forever. It is how you got here. How you like doing it, is not an identity. Sex is not a new thing that needs defining. Get an education about sex. Look up a book on Tantra—it's thousands of years old. Humans have sex. They like it. A lot. The only thing humans do more than have sex is kill each other. Humans have sex, get over it. It does not make you bad if you do or good if you don’t, it doesn’t make you "anything.”. It’s just sex. If there is anything that defines a human, it is sex. It is not an accomplishment. Men have a penis. Women have a vagina. Stop pretending its shocking. Act like you have seen one before. It’s just sex. Act like you have had it before. If not, go explore yourself. Gender and sexuality has nothing to do with being a Neo-Human.

As Neo-Human:

We strive to be logical, rational, responsible, and committed. We try to be present in every aspect of our lives. We do not apologize for that.

We are not of any culture. Culture is a habit, not an identity. We do not define our identity by lines on a map. All humans are our tribe.

We are humans, for humans. Earth is the dominion of man. Earth is not the domain of God, the gods, or any alien, by whatever name you want to call it. A storybook is not history. The kingdom of God ends with our ancestors, who were slaves to fear and ignorance. We do not bend the knee and reject subservience to the irrational. We freed our minds through our own efforts. The belief in the supernatural is all very primitive. We are about the future, not the past. We do not apologize for that.

We have no political affiliation. I am not anti-this or that, not woke, not libertarian, republican, democrat, contrarian, or anarchist; I am not any kind of “-arian.” Politics is boring. Politics is the joy of a small mind. The tyranny of ignorance. Politics is a reflection of the majority, which is by definition the lowest common denominator. We have no political affiliation. We do not apologize for that.

You are judged by what you do, not who you are (or, in most cases, think you are). Your sexual orientation, cultural identity, and so on are all constructs, not truths. Validating your construct is not the community’s responsibility. You don’t need others to validate and accept you. You need to educate yourself about yourself, come to accept yourself, and just be you. This is internal, not social. An inside job is not an outside one. Your identity constructs do not define you. You need no validation beyond your own self-acceptance. We do not care what you think, and we will defend ourselves at all costs. We are not here to validate anyone. We are here to evolve. We do not apologize for that.

We do not merely believe; we do. We ask not why or what was, but how and what’s next. We do more than hope and dream, as little children do. We set our sights on measurable advancement. We embrace knowledge and education. We strive for wisdom, capability, and skill, guided by reason and logic. We believe in empowered humanity, not cultures or tribes. Our core value is that ignorance impedes and education liberates. Belief is “be-lie-if “ so no, NO! no. We do not believe. We do not apologize for that.

We are sober pragmatists. Liberty is a responsibility, not a right. Any fool can identify a problem. Fixing isn’t solving. Intelligence is a measure of the ability to find solutions. Any fool can see what’s wrong. We are not anti-organization. Coordination amplifies humanity’s capabilities. Combined with innovation, this is how we build our future. It is not about anarchy, self, and chaos. Anyone who claims otherwise fails to grasp the exponential power of human potential. The future is our destination. We do not apologize for that.

If I were to boil it down to one thing, I would say that being Neo-human is evident of a capability to evolve. Evolution is what it means to be human, it is a power every human has, but not everyone wants to be human. The simple fact is most people wish they were anything other than human. The prevailing sentiment is more like a strong belief that one is a supernatural being having a human experience. Being neo-human embodies a new kind of human that embodies the will to be human. Embodying the capability of being able to change. It is not something you believe in. It is something you do because you know how. There are no “reasons” why. The answers come from asking the right question. The question is not why. The question is how. When you stop asking why and start asking how, then you get it.

Therefore, I would say being neo-human is more than a label but more of a statement about the state of a person. He (a male with a penis) or she (a female with a vagina) is neo (a reinvention of the human condition given what we know of what we are today) and human (as in a rejection that we are anything other than a biological organism). Being neo-human is an acceptance of “what” you are. It is not about “who” you are. The future is invented today. We are neo-human. Yes, there is a difference.
