Редактирование: Reactive transhumanism

'''Reactive transhumanism''' is a popular portrayal of transhumanist themes in media. Typically the premise involves an individual or small group gaining access to experimental technology perhaps via experimentation, some kind of [[Deus Ex]] machina or conventional scientific invention, perhaps in the [[mad scientist]] vein, either biological or cybernetic. Most of the [[super hero]] genre is predicated upon this.

In certain portrayals, the good guys will be battling the well organised bad guys who [[oligarchic transhumanism|have all the power]] or are [[Fascist transhumanism|simply oppressive]], as plucky underdogs from an anti-establishment point of view.

Genres around reactive transhumanism such as [[cyberpunk]] or [[biopunk]] usually focus on the author's favourite type of technology, with others are [[No Transhumanism Allowed|conspicuously and very unrealistically absent]].<ref>[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/NoTranshumanismAllowed No Transhumanism Allowed]</ref>
