U.S. Transhumanist Party – Official Website

U.S. Transhumanist Party – PUTTING SCIENCE, HEALTH, & TECHNOLOGY AT THE FOREFRONT OF AMERICAN POLITICS

Forthcoming Transitional Period of the Transhumanist Party

Forthcoming Transitional Period of the Transhumanist Party

November 14, 2016 Gennady Stolyarov II Comments 5 comments

The United States Transhumanist Party was founded by Zoltan Istvan in 2014. After Zoltan’s publicity-raising run for President in 2016, the Transhumanist Party is entering a new stage in its efforts to create a sustainable, long-lasting movement to advocate for life extension and the general application of science and technology for the dramatic improvement of the human condition.

To achieve that goal, Zoltan has requested that Gennady Stolyarov II, the current Chief Executive of the Nevada Transhumanist Party and author of Death is Wrong, become the new Chairman of the United States Transhumanist Party. During this Transitional Period, anticipated to span the year 2017, Mr. Stolyarov will be coordinating efforts to create the infrastructure for the Transhumanist Party going forward, including a membership base, an ever-growing scope of constructive activities, and ultimately elections that will determine a comprehensive platform, bylaws, and future officers after the conclusion of the Transitional Period.

The physical mailing address of the Transhumanist Party is the following:

PO Box 2455
Minden, NV 89423 

Proximate Goals

The immediate goals of the Transhumanist Party during the Transitional Period will be the following:

(1) Reach 100 members as soon as possible, with the goal of achieving adequate representation from among the transhumanist community. Once this threshold is achieved, voting on key issues may begin.

(2) Discuss the Transhumanist Bill of Rights previously proposed by Zoltan Istvan. Solicit input from members regarding possible improvements, refinements, and amendments. Afterward, a vote shall be held on the most current version of the Transhumanist Bill of Rights at that time, and a determination will be made regarding whether to adopt this document as an official statement of the Transhumanist Party going forward.

(3) Acquire additional officers (appointed positions during the Transitional Period), advisors, and volunteers.

(4) Pursue concrete, short-term projects that advance the aims of the transhumanist movement and philosophical ideas. Solicit input from membership regarding “low-hanging fruit” that can be attained with minimal funds and a modest volunteer base.

(5) Reach out to all State-level Transhumanist Parties, ascertain their status, and explore opportunities for collaboration and growth.

Become a Member

Membership in the Transhumanist Party is free of monetary cost. To become a member, please fill out the Membership Application. We request the following information:

(1) Your name.

(2) Are you eligible to vote in any United States elections? (Answer “Yes” or “No”. The answer will determine whether you will be a United States Member or an Allied Member. You will not be rejected due to a “No” answer.)

(3) Do you agree with the following Core Ideals of the Transhumanist Party (however you may interpret those ideals)? (Answer “Yes” or “No”. You will not be rejected for membership due to a “No” answer and will still be able to participate in discussions. However, voting on platform planks and organizational structure may, at the Chairman’s discretion, be limited to those members who answered “Yes” to this question, in order to ensure that the platform and party structure are representative of the views of those who hold core transhumanist ideals.)

Ideal 1. The Transhumanist Party supports significant life extension achieved through the progress of science and technology.

Ideal 2. The Transhumanist Party supports a cultural, societal, and political atmosphere informed and animated by reason, science, and secular values.

Ideal 3. The Transhumanist Party supports efforts to use science, technology, and rational discourse to reduce and eliminate various existential risks to the human species.

Interim Constitution

The drafting of the Constitution of the United States Transhumanist Party has begun. Article I has been developed to express certain immutable principles which may not be altered going forward. Article II has been developed to facilitate an effective transition. The remainder will be crafted with the input of members once an active, involved membership base has been established.

Please join our effort and help us create the infrastructure for an enduring political party of the future.

Can we make a positive science-fiction future the reality of our lifetimes?

    Future mental health law?

    Dear Transhumanist Party,

    If someone doesn’t want to live forever,

    http://www.antipsychiatry.org/suicide.htm

    is he or she insane?

    I am a beautiful lady trapped in a male body, so can I genuinely choose my gender in the future? I think that penis is a disgusting body part, but I want to have large breasts.

    What is your view of Dougal Dixon’s book “Man After Man: An Anthropology of the Future”?

    On the other hand, any notions of eternal afterlife hell frighten me,

    http://www.playboy.com/articles/playboy-interview-richard-dawkins

    so maybe I want to live forever.

    Transhumanist Olympics is an exciting idea. Are Miss Plastic and Miss Finest competitions precursors to transhumanist beauty pageants?

    Female beauty makes me think that the World is good place to live in.

    I ask again.

    If someone chooses to live only natural human lifespan, and refuses these technologies,

    http://hplusmagazine.com/category/immortality/

    then is he or she suicidal person, who needs involuntary psychiatric treatment?

    Until her or his mind changes…

    Are human–animal hybrids also a transhumanist norm?

    http://www.themeparkreview.com/europe2005/bonbonland/bonbonland1.htm

    I’m a mermaid fan, and Paul Delvaux’s The Break of Day ( L’aurore ) is one of my favourite paintings.

    Treatment or brainwash?

    Is it possible to use new neurohacking technologies for political purposes?

    http://www.mindfreedom.org/kb/mental-health-abuse/brain-experiment

    I ask this as a psychiatric abuse survivor.
