I'm not much of a writer, but go for it I guess. The main angle I want to come from here is that I had to watch my world crumble in a much more personal way than most self-professed transhumanists did, and I really resent them always bringing up trans and disabled people when I feel they don't give any more of a shit about me than anyone else does. I saw the bay I grew up by becoming a festering pool of death and I saw the woods I played in become a garbage dump. I can't go just live the way I want to anymore, because progress deemed my world not worthy of survival. What mountain am I supposed to go live on when you've cut off all the mountaintops for coal and rare metals, you know?

e: also lol at the technofetishists downvoting half of what I say because the token doesn't agree with them. Like, sorry I'd rather take my chances with dying at 50 from a broken leg than at 25 from a hate crime.
