In order to transform the human condition, which is his deepest aim, the liberal seeks to make the political order fully dependent upon a transformed people. To achieve the transformation, he seeks the right kind of constitutional institutions to produce the right kind of party to produce the right kind of majority. At the very center of liberalism there is the theory of the truly democratic party\u2014unified and coherent and thus capable of summoning up from the unformed mass the majority acquiescence in the liberal goals that, the liberal believes, is the natural inclination of the true majority.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In either which case, it is incumbent upon the <em>intelligencia<\/em> to <a href=\"https:\/\/impeachreno.org\/politicalhat\/2017\/10\/17\/on-liberty-and-security\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">mould mankind<\/a> and thus perfect them in order to create a utopia of a perfect solid state society.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;However, the elevation of mankind as a self-creating (un)intellegent designer (who worships their creator), would nonetheless need to take into account actual biological reality, abet only to the <a href=\"https:\/\/impeachreno.org\/politicalhat\/2018\/03\/23\/soviet-ape-men-vs-catgirl-nuns\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">degree necessary<\/a> to effect change, and never enough to challenge the <em>holy faith<\/em> of the Left&#8217;s ideology.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;This is why we see <a href=\"https:\/\/pjmedia.com\/video\/kamala-harris-it-is-a-fact-that-we-can-change-human-behaviors-on-climate-change\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">serious calls<\/a> for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.livescience.com\/19357-engineering-humans-climate-change.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">genetically engineering humans<\/a> to become physically a species that fits into the need to assuage the climate gods and appease Gaia by conforming to the predetermined apocalyptic pseudo-climatology, as morlocks direct the eloi.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;There may be another route to avoid the potentially disastrous effects of climate change: We can deliberately alter ourselves, three researchers suggest.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;Human engineering, as they call it, poses less danger than altering our planet through geoengineering, and it could augment changes to personal behavior or policies to mitigate climate change, they write in an article to be published in the journal Ethics, Policy and the Environment.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-15453\" src=\"https:\/\/impeachreno.org\/politicalhat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/eloi.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"581\" height=\"339\" srcset=\"https:\/\/impeachreno.org\/politicalhat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/eloi.jpg 581w, https:\/\/impeachreno.org\/politicalhat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/eloi-300x175.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 581px) 100vw, 581px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;What are some of these suggestions to &#8220;perfect&#8221; mankind in an environmentally woke future?<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Induce intolerance to red meat (think lactose intolerance), since livestock farming accounts for a significant portion of greenhouse gas emissions.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Make humans smaller to reduce the amount of energy we each need to consume.
