Here is a great short informational video about the U.S. Transhumanist Party from the Din Vision YouTube channel.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=gfjraULkn5M
This is one example of why we are so encouraged by the prospects of the USTP. We had not asked for such a video to be made, but rather it came about through the creator’s own initiative. This shows that the Core Ideals, Values, and Platform of the USTP resonate with many around the world who are not finding conventional politics responsive to their aspirations. Science, health, and technology should be at the forefront of American Politics, and the U.S. Transhumanist Party, with its candidates Charlie Kam and Liz Parrish, aim to do just that.

Johnny is supplementing the philosophical and technological conversations in the movie with an extended series called “2030: Beyond the Film”, and I was honored to be one of the representatives of the transhumanist movement featured in this series. I speak about the central vision and goals of transhumanism and answer challenging and important questions from Johnny about how transhumanism can overcome the many disincentives to progress that exist in our time and reach a broader segment of the population. We also discuss potential issues with how certain technologies have been implemented – for instance, in the situations of various social-media platforms – and what kinds of decisions and approaches could lead to superior, more rational results.

Please read the U.S. Transhumanist Party’s recent statement on the tragic events in Kenosha, Wisconsin, Washington, D.C., and other American cities. The statement features calls for unity from five of the USTP’s leaders, including Chairman Gennady Stolyarov II, Secretary Pavel Ilin, Vice-Presidential Candidate Liz Parrish, Director of Sentient Rights Advocacy Tom Ross, and Director of Visual Art – Art Ramon Garcia, Jr.
transhumanist-party.org/2020/08/29/ustp-calls-for-brighter-future/
Excerpt: “August 29, 2020 – The United States Transhumanist Party (USTP) expressed alarm at the troubling and saddening events in Kenosha, Wisconsin, which began with the tragic and unjustified shooting on August 23 by police of Jacob Blake, an unarmed black man, multiple times in the back. Violence was escalated in subsequent days by looters who robbed and destroyed numerous peaceful businesses, and also by a lone individual who killed two protesters. During the night of August 27, 2020, while returning from the Republican National Convention in Washington, D.C., Kentucky Senator Rand Paul, a long-time advocate critic of police shootings and advocate of police reform, was violently assaulted along with his wife, by a crowd of about 100 protesters who threatened his life and attempted to push through the police who were escorting him and to violently lunge at him.
“Opposition to racism and other circumstantial discrimination, as well as the unequivocal condemnation of violence resulting from such attitudes, has been a cornerstone of the USTP Platform since its inception. […] The USTP has also long stood against police brutality and excessive use of force. […] At the same time, the USTP emphasized that more violence is never the answer to the problem of unjustified violence.”

Remarking on his selection, Charlie Kam stated, “Elizabeth (Liz) is the embodiment of what it means to be a Transhumanist. She is the Founder and CEO of BioViva, a company committed to extending healthy lifespans using cell technologies. Liz is a humanitarian, entrepreneur, innovator, podcaster, and a leading voice for genetic cures. As a strong proponent of progress and education for the advancement of regenerative medicine modalities, she serves as a motivational speaker to the public at large for the life sciences. She is actively involved in international educational media outreach. Along with all of that, Liz is a good friend whom I’ve known for years, and I look forward to campaigning together to promote the ideas and values of the USTP!”
Commenting on her new role as the Vice-Presidential candidate endorsed by the USTP, Liz Parrish stated, “I believe now is the right time in human history to further the transhumanist mission. Our planet, our species, and the survival of all other species are in our hands now. People are tired of division and divisiveness. Humans must convene, start a new conversation, and work toward bettering our condition and that of our planet through the transhumanist mission.”

The panelists spoke about the state of contemporary politics in the United States and the unique, constructive aspects that the USTP brings to that scene, as well as the implications of transhumanist politics for international relations and spreading awareness of transhumanist ideas worldwide.
Reflections by Chairman Stolyarov: “I was particularly heartened by the discussion regarding the extensive interest that young people – students of Dr. Sharif Rana – have taken in transhumanist concepts and cultural creations (such as Charlie Kam’s music videos). These young people are beginning to emerge onto the world stage and are becoming acquainted with ideas that can not only enable their societies to overcome certain disadvantageous predicaments, but also to leapfrog past the more “developed” countries by adopting technologies and rational methods for which the infrastructure can be established afresh. As I mentioned to Dr. Rana, one person acting alone cannot change the world – but if that one person inspires many others to take similar actions and thereby leads by example, then that person can change the world. Hopefully, with this conversation and with some of the advice we provided to young people, we have planted more seeds for the next great era of our civilization.”

C. H. Antony, Vice-Secretary of the U.S. Transhumanist Party, writes:
“We Transhumanists are the gray area in between the madness that is the two- party system in America. We unfortunately inhabit the very system we were warned about in our earliest days as a country. We offer rational and compassionate alternatives to the systems Americans have been repeatedly manipulated into accepting. Where other parties seek to polarize the citizenry, we seek to unite it with scientific and technological solutions to the issues that have us at each other’s throats. With respect to urgency, I will only illustrate existing or easily obtainable technologies here. […]”
“We at the USTP believe that human suffering must end, but moreover, it can end if we begin actively applying the advancements we have right now. This isn’t some far-flung future fiction we’d all like to see someday; indeed, “someday” for much of this was ten years ago. So while we are out there advocating for rights and justice, let’s begin to embrace the tools that can ensure the equal application and universally competent execution of these goals.”

U.S. Transhumanist Party Secretary Pavel Ilin explores various possibilities in his recent article.

Secretary Ilin observes that “To implement all these preventive measures, we don’t have to invent anything and completely rebuild cities’ infrastructure. All technologies are there; we just need to use them rationally and be willing to invest some time and effort into implementation.”

Is civilization bound for a Terran-versus-Cosmist conflict of the sort anticipated by Hugo de Garis, or can such a clash be avoided through prudent foresight and development of frameworks of rights for sentient entities which serve to defuse tensions and cultivate acceptance of new kinds of beings?

Update from Gennady Stolyarov II, Chairman of the U.S. Transhumanist Party: I am pleased to have been featured in a British tabloid publication – yes, a tabloid publication where the article happens to be 100% factually accurate and to share important messages from the transhumanist political realm.
James Bickerton, writing for the Daily Express in the UK, covers Charlie Kam’s 2020 U.S. Transhumanist Party Presidential campaign in this article: www.express.co.uk/news/world/1305932/US-Presidential-election-Donald-Trump-transhumanist-ageing-d....
Yes, the presentation style is sensational, but every statement in the article is entirely true. It correctly relays comments from both Charlie Kam and myself and exposes the public to the immensely important scientific and technological possibilities for radical life extension within our lifetimes.
Even better, there are two thoughtful interviews that James Bickerton posted on his YouTube channel with both Charlie and myself – great dialogues both.

We live in interesting times when tabloids can bring genuine, well-researched journalism, while “mainstream” publications engage in propaganda more often than not. But there is hope for the future if articles like this one from the Daily Express become more frequent phenomena.

Final results of the Victor Run 2020 Virtual Race, which occurred on June 5-7, 2020, have been posted at transhumanist-party.org/2020/06/11/victor-run-results/. Overall standings, as well as breakdowns by gender and age categories, are available.
The Victor Run 2020 has come to a successful conclusion with 29 runners participating and $1,290 raised to help longevity researcher Victor Bjoerk relocate to a paid research position with Ichor Therapeutics in Syracuse, New York. This virtual race has inspired numerous runners to undertake bold and challenging feats during the weekend of June 5-7, 2020, for the advancement of longevity, health, and fitness. Victor Bjoerk himself participated in the race and ran his first marathon, self-supported – a great achievement! Congratulations to Victor and to all of the runners for taking part in this experiment. All participants will be rewarded with custom finisher medals, and there will be additional awards to the top 3 finishers by gender. Medals are currently in production, and it is expected that they will be sent to participants in late June 2020.
We congratulate the top 3 finishers in each gender category:
First-Place Male and Overall – David Ravarino
Second-Place Male and Overall – Chris Badolato
Third-Place Male and Overall – Bill Andrews
First-Place Female – Jess Haltom
Second-Place Female – Carla Katz
Third-Place Female – Karen Carlson
This race embodied the goal of indefinite longevity by setting no limit on how long participants could run. Indeed, it was a race that rewarded the most persistent! The scoring for the race relied on a unique metric that combined distance, speed, and elevation gain in a manner that gave any participant the opportunity to win with sufficient determination.
Join us today – Sunday, June 7, at 1 p.m. Pacific Time for a conversation on longevity and health with Jim Strole, Director of the Coalition for Radical Life Extension and organizer of RAADfest. We have much to discuss that we look forward to hearing Jim’s thoughts on – RAADfest 2020, longevity, health, impacts of COVID-19 on the life-extension community, and life-extension advocacy.

U.S. Transhumanist Party Virtual Enlightenment Salon with Maitreya One - May 31, 2020

On Sunday, May 31, 2020, at 1 p.m. U.S. Pacific Time, the U.S. Transhumanist Party is hosting a Virtual Enlightenment Salon, where the USTP Officers invite M...The U.S. Transhumanist Party reminds its members of Operating Principle 4 of the USTP Constitution from Article I, Section III - the Immutable Operating Principles, considered so important that they were adopted with the understanding that they may never be removed.
***
Operating Principle 4. The United States Transhumanist Party renounces all violence, except in self-defense against a clear, immediate act of physical aggression. In particular, the United States Transhumanist Party holds that violent political activism is never permissible or just. The United States Transhumanist Party commits to always pursuing its goals in a civil, law-abiding manner, respecting the legitimate rights of all persons. The United States Transhumanist Party shall not condone and shall necessarily and automatically disavow all violent criminal acts. Any person who commits a violent criminal act is automatically disassociated from the United States Transhumanist Party in all respects until and unless that person has made appropriate restitution or has fully undergone the appropriate penalties pursuant to applicable law. However, this commitment to exclusively peaceful action does not preclude the United States Transhumanist Party from criticizing any ideas or behavior which are contrary to reason, morality, common sense, or the principles and objectives of the United States Transhumanist Party Core Ideals and Platform.
***
We expect all USTP members to remain peaceful during the recent most tragic riots and civil disturbances. Any USTP member found engaging in an act of violence will be expelled automatically, and I will have no choice in the matter. The Constitution would mandate it. Stay home. Save lives!
Please join us this Sunday, May 31, at 1 p.m. U.S. Pacific Time, 4 p.m. Eastern Time, for the next in the series of the U.S. Transhumanist Party’s weekly Virtual Enlightenment Salons. This salon features as our guest the transhumanist hip-hop artist and passionate life-extension advocate, Maitreya One, CEO of the Superlongevity Institute. We will discuss longevity, cryonics, the Timeship project, hip-hop, and how to effectively communicate life-extension ideas to reach large numbers of people within the hip-hop community and among the public more generally.
Watch it here: youtu.be/S2ojznd_5lM
The meeting includes a public chat and portions where inquiries from members and the general public are addressed. Part of the Virtual Enlightenment Salon is devoted to answering questions from the public.

Please visit it if you would like to run in this first-of-its-kind event on June 5-7, 2020, potentially win in accordance with a unique scoring rubric, and earn a medal for supporting a longevity researcher.
We have an excellent medal design for the Victor Run 2020 Virtual Race, which will take place on June 5-7, 2020, all over the world. Tom Ross, the U.S. Transhumanist Party’s Director of Media Production has done an excellent job conveying what this run is all about. Always find opportunities to move forward – and onward into the indefinite future! Always pursue exponential improvement of the self and of existence!
Find out about how to participate in the Victor Run here:
transhumanist-party.org/victor-run/
This design will be printed on high-quality, heavy circular medals; we are thinking of a nice, reflective bronze finish. One of them can be yours if you donate $30 or more to Victor Bjoerk’s LongeCity fundraiser to enable him to remain in the United States and perform essential life-extension research - www.longecity.org/forum/page/index.html/_/feature/basevictor. Then run any distance you wish on June 5-7 and have it scored according to our unique point system. You – yes, you – can win this race – if you put your mind and your will to it! More importantly, you will be helping humankind win the race to defeat disease, including biological aging.
The first virtual race organized by the U.S. Transhumanist Party and Chairman Stolyarov – the Victor Run – will place on June 5-7, 2020, with participation possible for anyone, anywhere in the world.
Find out the full details here:
transhumanist-party.org/victor-run/. No matter who or where you are, or how long you plan to run, please take part!
The goal is to help one of the most prolific researchers in the longevity community, molecular biologist Victor Bjoerk, during a time of need. All of the payments made by race participants ($30 donation to enter the race) will go toward Victor’s fundraiser, organized by LongeCity: www.longecity.org/forum/page/index2.html/_/feature/about. Victor needs funding quickly, by May 31, 2020, to enable him to remain in California, fulfill the terms of his visa, and perform vital research that will make significant strides in understanding human longevity and health on a personalized level. This is some of the lowest-hanging fruit in biomedical research that we can conceive of, and we are determined to make this fundraiser a success.
There will be finisher medals for all participants and prizes for the top three finishers, which Chairman Stolyarov will pay to create and ship. He will also compile and publish all statistics.
This virtual race will have a unique premise that will enable any runner to have the opportunity to compete and win. It will appeal to speed runners and endurance runners, road runners and trail runners, those who seek a flat run or those who seek to climb significantly. Because the goal of the fundraiser is to support longevity research, there will be no limit to how long or how far you can run.
A preview of the scoring metrics is below.
Distance / Speed Metrics
– 1 point for every mile run at 12 minutes or slower.
– 1.1 points for every mile run between 11 and <12 minutes.
– 1.25 points for every mile run between 10 and <11 minutes.
– 1.5 points for every mile run between 9 and <10 minutes.
– 2 points for every mile run between 8 and <9 minutes.
– 3 points for every mile run between 7 and <8 minutes.
– 5 points for every mile run between 6 and <7 minutes.
– 7 points for every mile run between 5 and <6 minutes.
– 11 points for every mile run between 4 and <5 minutes.
– YOU WIN AUTOMATICALLY if you set the mile world record and run any mile under 4 minutes.
– Any remaining fraction of a mile after all full miles are considered will receive a number of points proportional to a mile within the range above that corresponds to the average pace for the entire run. For example, if your entire run’s average pace is 9:30 per mile, and you run 4.5 miles, then the last 0.5 miles will earn you 0.75 points (0.5*1.5 points for the range between 9 and <10 minutes).
– If your GPS tracker does not provide pace per individual mile, you will be scored based on your average pace. Mathematically, this will likely result in a lower point total, so as to incentivize more granular tracking.
Elevation Metrics
– You will earn an additional 0.25 points for every 100 feet of elevation gain attained during the run. Every fraction of 100 feet of elevation gain will earn a proportional share of 0.25 points.
May You Run on a Treadmill or Elliptical Trainer?
Yes, you may, if you make the donation and provide a screenshot of your results. However, your point rubric will have less upside potential.
Treadmill / Elliptical Trainer Rubric
– 1 point for every mile run at 12 minutes or slower.
– 1.1 points for every mile run between 11 and <12 minutes.
– 1.25 points for every mile run between 10 and <11 minutes.
– 1.5 points for every mile run faster than 10 minutes.
– You will earn an additional 0.1 points for every 100 feet of elevation gain as registered by a treadmill or elliptical trainer.
You will likely be scored based on your average pace for a treadmill / elliptical run – unless you can provide evidence of per-mile splits.

Watch the recording here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=O8mV9Ed8PKc
See Mr. Stolyarov’s campaign website here: rationalargumentator.com/stolyarov-for-ihgid.html
Key points from Mr. Stolyarov’s campaign:
- Transcending political divisions
- Putting facts first
- Ensuring that key infrastructure operates smoothly
- Respecting homeowners’ property rights
- Pursuing technological solutions
- Enabling resident initiatives
- Supporting development that helps everyone and preserving valuable amenities
- Commitment to fair campaign practices
As an additional way to encourage the improvement of lives and living standards for all, if elected, Mr. Stolyarov promises to donate half of his salary as a Trustee, $250 per month, to research initiatives and charities which work to enhance human health and longevity and develop medical technologies that, in the coming years and decades, will enable everyone to lead lives of greater length and quality.

Of the 67 members who voted, 65 (97.0%) cast their ballots in favor of endorsing Mr. Stolyarov’s candidacy. One member (1.5%) voted in opposition, and one member (1.5%) abstained.
All of the U.S. Transhumanist Party’s Officers received independent access to the vote results.
Accordingly, the U.S. Transhumanist Party has an endorsed candidate who will be on the ballot in the 2020 mail-in primary election in Douglas County, Nevada, and has an opportunity to advance to the general election if he performs sufficiently well in the primary.
In response to this endorsement, Mr. Stolyarov issued the following statement:
“It is once again an immense honor to receive such overwhelming support from the members of the U.S. Transhumanist Party, whose forward-thinking vision remains as steadfast as ever despite these turbulent times. It is clear that, in the wake of a pandemic that is ravaging the world, a different approach to politics is needed – an approach that fundamentally respects people and their liberties, that prioritizes essential infrastructure, that looks for innovative technological and rational common-sense solutions to both everyday issues and the grand challenges with which we must all now contend. While we must be innovative, nimble, and insistent on continual improvement, core principles must remain the foundations upon which progress is built.
“My campaign statement is therefore the same as during my 2018 campaign: Through reason, technology, and respect for property rights, we can live well and improve. I have, furthermore, reinforced the transhumanist aims of my campaign by promising to donate half of my Trustee salary, $250 per month, to organizations and initiatives that promote longevity and health and advance the kinds of medical technologies that will lengthen our lifespans if sufficiently supported. I firmly hold my campaign principles, as well as the Core Ideals of the U.S. Transhumanist Party, to be capable of improving the lives and satisfying the constructive desires of all, and I hope to have the opportunity to show how these concepts work in practice to the benefit of all of my constituents, no matter their conventional political affiliation.”

“Most of us are locked in our local tribes - national, ideological, corporate, and so on. Living in different tribes is a way to establish one's own subjectivity and identity. Most of the time we are part of the different tribes at the same time. The problem comes when we are not engaged in cross-tribal dialog and consider members of other tribes as ‘Other’. That’s how othering happens.”

U.S. Transhumanist Party member Mike Diverde points out that “this pandemic has sharply focused attention on the dearth of hospital capacity in the United States. The USTP led the way in March 2020 with Article VI, Section XCVIII, of the Constitution of the United States Transhumanist Party. Naturally, motivating both the Democrats and the Republicans to support our plan is going to be necessary.”
Read Mike Diverde’s article here - transhumanist-party.org/2020/04/28/ustp-hospital-construction-act/ - and then share your ideas about how this plan can be made a reality, so that we never lack surge capacity during a pandemic again. Mr. Diverde is correct in stating that “this is an investment not only in the American economy, but also an investment in our health and superlongevity.” If approached with sufficient determination, this effort could lift the American economy out of depression while employing at least a million people and saving lives in the near future and for decades to come.

Thank you to David Wood and the London Futurists for hosting an erudite exchange of ideas on universal basic income, with a variety of perspectives being offered on the panel, including that of U.S. Transhumanist Party Chairman Gennady Stolyarov II. The video recording has been released here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=fkQCH3tbMBg
We would encourage you to watch the entire panel discussion – but here also are the time segments for Chairman Stolyarov’s own comments:
- 4:04 – Introduction of Gennady Stolyarov II and the U.S. Transhumanist Party - youtu.be/fkQCH3tbMBg?t=244
- 34:16 – Main remarks – emphasizing the need for a UBI to be unconditional and not involve any means-testing or the attendant administrative overhead - youtu.be/fkQCH3tbMBg?t=2056
- 53:42 – Explanation of the background image (the City of New Antideath - transhumanist-party.org/2017/06/29/city-of-new-antideath/) and a further discussion of how a UBI would be funded (e.g., a federal land dividend, income from natural resources, colossal economic growth) - youtu.be/fkQCH3tbMBg?t=3222
- 1:12:13 – How to pay for an immediate, emergency universal basic income and how to recover those expenses in the relatively near future - youtu.be/fkQCH3tbMBg?t=4333
- 1:30:32 – Final thoughts – how a UBI would not be subject to the moral-hazard problem for employers, but would rather increase workers’ bargaining power and ability to seek alternatives to sub-optimal work arrangements - youtu.be/fkQCH3tbMBg?t=5432
Since the panel transpired, the U.S. Transhumanist Party adopted the following wording in favor of an emergency universal basic income. This wording has become Section XCIX of the USTP Platform: transhumanist-party.org/platform/#COVID19
“The United States Transhumanist Party supports for an immediate, universal, unconditional basic income of at least $1000 per month to be provided to every United States citizen for the duration of the COVID-19 outbreak and its immediate aftermath, without regard for individuals’ means or other sources of income. The priority for this program should be to prevent massive and irreparable economic disruptions to the lives of Americans in the wake of the COVID-19 epidemic.”

Members are also reminded that the ranked-preference method of voting (used in two questions on this ballot) allows multiple options to be selected and arranged from more favored to less favored. This minimizes the incentives for strategic voting and allows voters to have influence in subsequent rounds, even if their first preference is eliminated during the instant runoffs.
Results of the voting will be tabulated during late March 2020, with the intent to announce the results approximately 2-3 days after all votes have been submitted.

The U.S. Transhumanist Party hereby declares an official Week of Mourning for our member Duncan Socrates Lemp, who joined the USTP on September 6, 2019, and remained a member in good standing until he was murdered by trigger-happy masked SWAT police in Potomac, Maryland, on March 12, 2020, while asleep.
More information is found here:
abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/lawyer-man-asleep-police-fired-house-killing-69587748
The Week of Mourning will last from March 14 through March 21, 2020.
During the Week of Mourning, the U.S. Transhumanist Party encourages everyone who knew Duncan Lemp to post accounts regarding his character and accomplishments, as well as any art and other imagery that would enable his memory to be preserved. Furthermore, during the Week of Mourning and beyond, the U.S. Transhumanist Party encourages all of its members and others to oppose senseless police violence and advocate for holding the police who killed Duncan Lemp accountable for their careless and ignominious misdeeds and atrocities. Member-generated content that preserves the memory of Mr. Lemp and expresses outrage at murders by police will be featured on the U.S. Transhumanist Party website with attribution to the authors.
The U.S. Transhumanist Party has taken a strong stance in opposition to police violence. Section XXI of the USTP Platform - transhumanist-party.org/platform/#CivilLiberties - reads, “The United States Transhumanist Party supports a concerted effort by governments and by public opinion to eradicate police brutality against peaceful citizens, such that violent force is only utilized against individuals who actually pose an imminent threat to human lives.” The USTP Platform advocates for numerous other measures to quell police brutality, including Section XXXIV (sousveillance / body cameras), Section LXXXIX (prohibition against police being equipped with military-grade hardware), Section XC (requirement for police to be equipped with and mostly use rubber bullets), Section LIX (requirement for outside investigations of police misconduct), Section LX (prohibition of collusion among law-enforcement entities to cover up police misbehavior), Section LXXXVI (improved reporting of police misconduct), and various other approaches to achieve police accountability. We firmly believe that, had our Platform planks been codified into law and enforced, Duncan Socrates Lemp would have been alive today. All persons of conscience should push for the unconscionable prerogatives of police use of violence to be greatly curtailed everywhere in the United States, as they have been in virtually every other civilized country.
