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.
James Hughes has referred to "techno-progressivism" as another name for Democratic Transhumanism, but it can also refer to the support of both technological and social reform in general.
History
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.
