Democratic Transhumanism

Democratic Transhumanism, shortened to Demh+, is a Democratic, often  culturally progressive, pro-technology ideology.

Democratic Transhumanism believes that the concept of Transhumanism would fit within a  liberal,  social and/or radical democratic society, supporting equal access to human enhancement technologies in order to promote social equality and to prevent further divide between the socioeconomic classes.

Personality and Behaviour
Democratic Transhumanism is shunned by its peers due to its more moderate stances. It usually gets along well with the culturally progressive transhumanists, while culturally conservative transhumanists hate it. Demh+ is a huge fan of left futurist trends like technogaianism, biopunk and afrofuturism. Compared to the cyberpunk Capitalist Transhumanism, it would be more at home in a postcyberpunk or cyberprep setting.
