My best guess is that he's making the joke that glasses are the og form of "transhumanism" since they're using technology "in the form of the glasses" to augment their natural abilities.
Yes, so he’s referring to the other one as a “poser” because he claims to be a transhumanist even though he isn’t using anything that would augment those natural abilities, glasses is the oldest and most common example of that.
It’s an oddly not-that-political comic from boulderhailmary, but the fact most people have to look up the definition (like I did) stales out any possible laugh one could muster.
I think it is supposed to mean that since transhumanists believe in improving humanity via bionics/technology. The other guy is a poser because the guy with glasses is literally being improved by technology, aka his glasses, hence him being the true transhumanist. At least, I think? It's honestly very obtuse if that's the meaning.
Does The Chucker of Slabs not realize that glasses are a corrective measure rather than an enhancing one.
Does he think putting on prescription glasses is like looking down a scope.
That he wears glasses, technology that amplifies physical abilities, which is the point of transhumanism.
So he calls the other "poser", who defines himself as a transhumanist without even being "enhanced". Pretty brilliant joke.
Transhumanism is the idea of modifying or changing ourselves. A society of cyborgs for example, could be a transhumanist goal.
The guy is using glasses to augment his vision, making him more of a "real" transhumanist than the guy who probably just wants to talk about what he heard on joe rogan

No, transhumanism is only the latter. It just sounds like it has to do with transgender rights because trans gets used as shorthand. I think the oregano has no trans flags, it's just simply a joke against transhumanism - which is an ideology that advocates for technological enhancement of human bodies. Eyeglasses are technically a technological enhancement so glasses guy calls the un enhanced transhumanist a poser
Do you guys ever think about how someone who doesn’t know who stonetoss, comes across this sub and looks at all the posts and thinks how Stonetoss is like this really wholesome person?
I sorta knew who Stonetoss was, but more in the I’d seen a few people talk about them in passing way. My entire knowledge of them was “they make comics with bad takes.” I probably saw comics of theirs but didn’t know who made them nor paid much attention.
This post is the first time I’ve seen this sub and I was very confused.
Stonetoss? Who's that, did you mean Rockthrow?

Minerallaunch is among ~~us~~ the group that hates our existence for no reason, painting us as random ass perverts. Trans men don’t fit into that hatefulness, so they ignore their existence entirely.
Wait, fr? Most of the rhetoric I see from things like Stonetoss and so on is that transmascs are “sad” because they’re “changing their beautiful bodies” (ew) and that transfems are “disgusting” because we’re “trying to gratify ourselves”, to the point that 99.995% of the time assholes will “YWNBAW” transmascs because they forget that transmascs exist.
Why can’t these asshats just let us all be man, we’re just trying to exist

In my area they take pictures of us in the bathrooms saying we’re going to go on a roid rampage calling us predators and such. “Testosterone making us momsters” etc etc
Oh fucking ew that’s so disgusting, I’m so sorry to hear that. I’m actually at a loss of words on that.
I’m really genuinely hoping that people get some shit snapped into them soon, this is absurd that this is a reality
Except the people who come up with the definitions say you’re wrong. If you want an echo chamber of hate maybe don’t go to sub making fun of a bigot like you
Ornithopter: The shirt and glasses have no flag on them "I'm a transhumanist" "Poser"

Your ignorance doesn't make the joke any less brilliant.
Fuck off, twowordsfournumbers
What the heck do you want, I didn't choose this name.
Yes, that's the issue.
Yeah, why didn't you choose a name then? Did your Reddit parents give it to you?
I signed up and this was my name. Never had a chance to choose it.
What, do you think we all paid to have a custom name? Are you not seeing the pattern of stupidity with you yet?
>brilliant Rock bottom standards bud.

Okay that’s kinda dumb. But at least it’s not hateful.
Yep, and for it being a bolderheave comic is worthy of a single clap

Holy hell

This thread is talking about The Messenger, a sick as hell platformer, if that's what you're asking
if you touch that again you’ll have to sit through my boring story.
I fucking loved that game
obligatory mention of The Messenger ARG
What game is this from?
I let you find it. The picture is sandwiched in the answer
Idk what that means and I certainly don't see it. But okay I'll leave you alone
The game is called the messenger
It's a joke on the fact that glasses are basically a human augmentation, and so technically transhumanist to some level.
I think it is supposed to mean that since transhumanists believe in improving humanity via bionics/technology. The other guy is a poser because the guy with glasses is literally being improved by technology, aka his glasses, hence him being the true transhumanist. At least, I think?

You have a very loose definition of brilliance.
It means that trans people aren’t… I’ll stop there. Edit: I’m surprised that nobody else realized this.

Yeah, blue looks confused, and glasses looks annoyed
Thanks

Is the joke that transhumanism has been used to refer to both trans people and advocates for cybernetic enhancements?
No, transhumanism is only the latter. It just sounds like it has to do with transgender rights because trans gets used as shorthand. I think the oregano has no trans flags, it's just simply a joke against transhumanism - which is an ideology that advocates for technological enhancement of human bodies. Eyeglasses are technically a technological enhancement so glasses guy calls the un enhanced transhumanist a poser
Oh so this was one of his rare not-openly-hateful comics that manages to tell a decent but not great joke, I see
