All Watched Over By Machines Of Loving Grace
By Richard Brautigan
I like to think (and
the sooner the better!)
of a cybernetic meadow
where mammals and computers
live together in mutually
programming harmony
like pure water
touching clear sky.
I like to think
(right now, please!)
of a cybernetic forest
filled with pines and electronics
where deer stroll peacefully
past computers
as if they were flowers
with spinning blossoms.
I like to think
(it has to be!)
of a cybernetic ecology
where we are free of our labors
and joined back to nature,
returned to our mammal
brothers and sisters,
and all watched over
by machines of loving grace.
The PrimTran life is all about using your laser eyes to hunt the deer you'll be eating as your next meal.

The best Primitive Transhumanist praxis is bioengineering humans to be so perfectly adapted to any natural setting that there is no need for technology. Technological progression would accelerate so drastically that it ends up making itself redundant.
I am now Accelerationist Neo Transhuman Anarcho Primitivist.
Or we continue technological progression until society collapses.
Old world Technology becomes dark magic, because no one knows how it works, but remember it destroyed the world
I wish I wasn't so late for this video. I started thinking of the possibility something like this could happen, where humans get so skilled in the "brute" medicinal field as opposed to engineering that they generationally learn how to properly modify biological components without the use of advanced technology. Million years of knowledge passed on from master to apprentice on how to dexterously modify and mend musculature to a participant in the far futures specifications.
Kinda like meaty knitting
Its more of a transhumanism but it can actually work

This gives me images of wooden Bender from futurama.
Or like looking in a smelley mirror.
The idea that Jreg puts actual thought and effort into these videos even when I don't really comprehend or understand anything he's saying is the greatest mystery of all
The perfect model for this would be if the Jetsons and the Flintstones take place at the same time, one in space and the other on earth
This is a legitimate theory that I’ve heard before.
but they do take place at the same time. the movie showed that
I mean, can't we have technology helping with stuff but still be a hunter-gatherer society on the question of how to get the raw materials?
just like, there is a whole machine city but most nature is preserved, no farms exist, and people still die in mines but hey, that's the price to pay to eradicate the disastrous consequences of the industrial revolution
If it’s extreme it’s on our team
Centrist much?
*anti-centrist
I literally just finished rewatching Discovery's "Manhunt: Unabomber". What a coincidink.
I'd like to watch this video, but the title sounds vaguely technical, and as an an-prim I'm scared of any technical political theory, so I'll just drop a like to maintain our absolutely real friendship and then go watch a gaming video instead.
JReg is a gaming channel, though
If you ate paleo like a proper anprim your brain would be in better shape to handle the theory.
Become a hunter-gatherer with robot arms
Problem solved
Basicly solarpunk aesthetic
When you think about it, jreg is really just making content to bridge great divides between people and look for common goals. Truly a noble cause
I haven't played the game but Horizon Zero Dawn looks a bit like primitive transhumanism. Some planets in Warhammer 40k lore could fit under that label as well. Imagine running through abandoned factories, chasing your cybernetic prey to harvest their sweet synth-goo for your tribe, your hold your amulet close and pray to the data-souls of your ancestors that were uploaded into the city's mainframe, while you sprint as fast as you can with your cyborg legs that the tech-shaman attached to you through an elaborate ritual and lots of nano-paste. You live in a world built by generations before you which you do no longer understand, but your people have learned to adapt to.
Terence Mckenna described an Primitivist/Transhumanist society at one point, IIRC it was something about how tech would evolve to the point of being invisible (nanites and augmented reality contact lenses or optic nerve mods which give feedback about the environment) and from an outside perspective they would just be a tribe of simple humans gathering food and living comunally off the land
Primitive Transhumanism is just playing minecraft vr with mods.

Taking the lore into account, Mega Man Legends is pretty close to this tbh. If the carbons didn't coordinate themselves into living within towns, it would basically be similar
Beautiful. You have truly transcended your state of basic human consciousness, Chirac.
He ded :c
Jreg I watched both ads without skipping because I love you
Finally, an ideology I can get behind
Well, to be fair. I think Jreg for real have something against technologies. Just like here he said that although we have goods we also have bureaucracy, crimes and depressions (although it’s more like social problems and not technological duh). And in other video he called “Robots” the transhumanist’s manifesto and that was the dank joke which he didn’t make about other ideologies.
I can’t argue and can’t understand him. Lots of post irony layers make the whole situation only worse. Technologies and civilizations don’t stand against nature and primitivism. They’re the part of it, they’re the next step of an evolution. Just like the life comes from single cells to multicellular beings, we, the humans, are the first specie (and probably not the least on the planet Earth) who comes from upgrades of the body to upgrades of the tools which we use (and upgrades of the tools which help us to upgrade the body). The evolution is just keeps going in new forms and yes, it has lots of mistakes, but our nature evolution and bodies have lots of mistakes too. So what’s the problem? Primitive Transhumanism is the real thing if you think about it
The last thirty seconds were worth it.
Unironic transhumanist here. I’m sure that there are ways to mix the two together but in an ideal transhumanist society technology would allow us to completely ascend humanity and the struggles that come with it which would effectively eliminate all problems anprims have with modern society so basically if a utopian transhumanist society was achieved the anprim ideology wouldn’t exist since it’s a reaction to modern times not necessarily only technology.
I've never felt so understood
i like how he uses every chance to display fanart
Thank you for truly making a difference to politics as we know it. You have inspired many.
Transhumanist Primitivism is basically a game of Ark Survival Evolved with an idle game spin("rebirth" Every so often.) Making the game literally unbeatable yet satisifyingly taking you toward thinking you're making progress.

There's a short story I read once titled 'Harrison Bergeron', which describes a dystopian future where the government has supplanted above average individuals by forcing limiters onto everyone, so that everyone is "equal" to the lowest common denominators. Its usually used as a bedtime story for Libertarian kids, but I think that concept of 'using technology to purposefully limit our potential' is the closest feasible way a society could actually achieve the notion of Primitive Transhumanism, presuming that technological progress is impossible to entirely reverse, and the only way to achieve a primitivist utopia would be through technology.

Great video, self-contradicting Jreg
Isaac Arthur made a great episode on this
Live a short and meaningful life of 7 thousand years
Simple, we all live as primitive hunter gatherers living peaceful amazing lives, but we also have a vast interconnected system allowing all hunter gatherers world wide to share information and knowledge! Additionally, we use automation to produce medicine for us while we hunt that way the negatives of being a hunter gatherer are decreased!
I see you've been watching Dr. Stone.
The antagonist is literally anprim in a nutshell; no bureaucrats, no technology
All hail the mighty Tsukasa! Death to the traitorous and scheming bugman Gen! Death to Senkuu, a force of evil who seeks the eradication of nature, revival of the corrupt boomers and bureaucrats and the reestablishment of neoliberal capitalism. By a glorious miracle or perhaps the work of the Æsir, nature has reclaimed and we have been given back life. We must stop the scourge of modernity. This opportunity granted to use by Óðinn shall not be in vain. All hail the mighty Tsukasa!
It would basically be the predator and every Southern hunter who buys increasingly technologically advanced weapons to shoot white tail deer.
isn't horizon zero dawn just a primitive trans humanist society?
How does he keep doing a spot-on rendition of my actual beliefs again and again?
We don't really need to settle other planets when we can build O'Neill cylinders.
Anarcho-primitivism within transhumanist society is basically "Brave New World" by Huxley
Sounds like you've been reading Terence McKenna.
m e d e c i n a l
I remember reading his book "Food of the Gods" some years ago. I found it quite interesting and he probably made some good points, I just couldn't help feeling as though there was an undercurrent where he was blaming the drugs he didn't like for everything wrong with human behavior, while all the good aspects of human behavior and evolution was because of the drugs he did like.
Oversimplification, sure, but I still think it's a valid criticism IIRC. Oh well, at least his Timewave Zero theory has since been proven entirely correct :-DDD

I'm an an-prim transhumanist and the way I see how it could work is that we could upgrade the physical form to live in a more grass-roots setting. Instead of large communities just have smaller, more renewable small communes

Basically a post-ecological collapse world where technology is required on a personal level to survive, but are otherwise hunter gatherers.
WH40K has a pretty good set of examples for this, and the next closest mainstream thing would be something like mad max.
War would be the only means of technological advancement as food and water scarcity makes it impossible to advance past this stage. Individual craftsmanship would be at an all time high for these war weapons.
"robody politic" lol
In all seriousness, consider a society in which super advanced technology run on artificial intelligence enables people to live superficially primitive lifestyles without the famines, diseases, or being eaten by lions of genuine primitivity.
Jreg, I believe you meant *soulism.*
Woah, hold up. Primitivetranshumanism is just the Predator alien. You use all your wild technology to travel to distant worlds to hunt sentient beings for sport.
Wasn't this that game where the girl hunts robots with a bow and arrow

Isaac Arthur did that on a video without even realizing. You just become a cyborg with 100% human appearance and go live in a forest. So you can hunt and gather without dying because of a thorn cut that got infected.
