Its modern philosophy draws heavily from the individualist anarchism of [[File:Philan.png]] [[Philosophical Anarchism|William Godwin]], [[File:Anego.png]] [[Anarcho-Egoism|Max Stirner]] and [[File:Awaj.png]] Voltairine de Cleyre as well as the [[File:Cyborgfem.png]] [[CyberFeminism|cyberfeminism]] presented by [[w:Donna_Haraway|Donna Haraway]] in [https://warwick.ac.uk/fac/arts/english/currentstudents/undergraduate/modules/fictionnownarrativemediaandtheoryinthe21stcentury/manifestly_haraway_----_a_cyborg_manifesto_science_technology_and_socialist-feminism_in_the_....pdf A Cyborg Manifesto].
 
Another influence is the [[File:CCRU.png]][[File:Cyberfem.png]][[File:Accel.png]][[File:Acidcomf.png]][[File:Poststruct.png]] [[w:Cybernetic_Culture_Research_Unit|Cybernetic Culture Research Unit]] (CCRU) formed 1995 at [[w:Warwick_University|Warwick University]] in [[w:Coventry|Coventry]], England and lasted until 2003 which included notable people such as [[File:Cyberfem.png]] [[CyberFeminism|Sadie Plant]], [[File:Landian Accelerationism.png]] [[Landian Accelerationism|Nick Land]] and [[File:Acidcomf.png]] [[Acid Communism|Mark Fisher]], famous for itsit's idiosyncratic "theory-fiction", and which their work involved things such as [[w:Psychedelic_experience|psychedelia]], [[File:Accel.png]] [[accelerationism]], [[w:Western_esotericism|esotericism]], [[w:Rave|rave culture]] and [[w:Jungle_music|Jungle music]], [[w:Cybernetics|cybernetics]] and [[File:CyberPunk.png]] [[w:Cyberpunk|cyberpunk]] media genre.
 
Cyberpunk and it's subsequent [[w:Cyberpunk_derivatives|sub-genres]] have heavily influenced Anarcho-Transhumanism, notably [[w:Biopunk|Biopunk]], [[w:Nanopunk|Nanopunk]] and [[File:Solarpunk.png]] [[Technogaianism|Solarpunk]].
Line 64 ⟶ 62:
Some aesthetics commonly associated with Anarcho-Transhumanism, especially among online users, are the [[File:Vaporwave.png]] [https://aesthetics.fandom.com/wiki/Vaporwave Vaporwave], [https://aesthetics.fandom.com/wiki/Synthwave Outrun] and [https://aesthetics.fandom.com/wiki/Y2K Kaybug] aesthetics, notable for their retro-futuristic technological influences, indicating that Anarcho-Transhumanism isn't just about modern technology, but also the utilization of much of the technology that previous generations associated with being "futuristic" at the time. Older tech is also often used in @H+ praxis as it is less easier to track activity than more modern devices.
 
Anarcho-Transhumanism may be interpreted either as [[File:Anti-Humanism.png]] {{PHB|Anti-Humanism|criticism of}}, or an [[File:POSTHUMANISMICON.png]] [[Post-Humanism|extension of]] [[File:Humanismpix.png]] {{PHB|Humanism|humanism}}, because it challenges what being human means.
 
===Relationship to Transhumanism===
Borrowing from [[File:Antech.png]] [[Techno-Anarchism|techno-anarchism]], anarchist activist William Gillis and others argue that the disruptive nature of emergent technologies are either incompatible or extremely dangerous with hierarchical structures of today, including representative or majoritarian democracy. Failure to challenge physical and social conditions together has been argued to risk [[File:Captrans.png]] [[Capitalist Transhumanism|oligarchic transhumanism]], primitivism, or even [[File:VHMentThanto.png]] [[Antinatalism|extinction]].
 
Anarcho-Transhumanists also criticize non-anarchist forms of transhumanism such as [[File:Nattrans.png]] [[Nazi Transhumanism]] and [[File:Libtrans.png]] [[Libertarian Transhumanism]] as incoherent and unsurvivable due to their preservation of the state. They view such instruments of power as inherently unethical and incompatible with the acceleration of social and material freedom for all individuals. Anarcho-Transhumanism is [[File:Anticap.png]] anti-capitalist, arguing capitalist accumulation of wealth would lead to dystopia while partnered with transhumanism. Anarcho-Transhumanism advocates for equal access to advanced technologies that enable morphological freedom and space travel.
Line 93 ⟶ 91:
===Opposition to Absentee Ownership===
====Capitalism====
Anarcho-Transhumanists advocate a variety of economic systems, with the common theme of rejecting systems based on absentee ownership of land and the means of production, such as [[File:Cap.png]] [[Capitalism]] and [[File:ML.png]] [[Marxism-Leninismmarxism–Leninism|state socialism]]. All Anarcho-Transhumanists are anti-capitalist, owing to anarchism's understanding of capitalism as a hierarchical system with capitalists and landlords as de-facto rulers.
 
====Authoritarian Socialism/Communism====
Line 106 ⟶ 104:
 
====Libertarian Socialism====
[[File:Libsoc.png]] [[Libertarian Socialism|Libertarianlibertarian socialism]] and [[File:Ancom.png]] communism are commonly supported systems, possibly made more viable by a transition to post-scarcity. This transition could be facilitated by manufacturing techniques enabled by 3D Printing and nanofabrication.
 
====Auxiliary economic systems====
