is there any actual evidence of his exponential technological growth theory? have yet to see any

the problem isn't whether this theory of technological growth obtains, but what it implies. Exponential growth isn't magic.

Why is it anti-transhumanists are always so adamant about insisting that the only reason people are transhumanists is extreme fear of dying?

I can't help but feel like you're projecting or something, there's really no logical way to conclude masturbating over ridiculous fantasies of the future absolutely has to be motivated by fear of dying.

> projecting
sage for off-topic but how buzzword is "you're projecting" right now? Is it more or less buzzword than "you don't know what projecting means"?

> on topic
Of course retarded fantasies of the future don't *have* to be motivated by fear of dying but the promised utopia (I'm sorry, "logical consequence of exponential growth") just happens to address those particular fears. By coincidence, plainly.
