Don't get me wrong, I totally agree These motherfuckers would scorch our planet for profit but this... feels different.

Is not a secret a lot of the most influential Billionaires are transhumanists (Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, etc).

But hey, it might as well be a grift to get on board other unsuspecting rich fucks...

Either way, we should put these power hoarding dragons to sleep, soon!
