nounfrom Latin homo "man, human" + pecus "flock, herd"
A species of human evolved from homo sapiens, characterized by docility, compliance, and subjugation. A slave like species engineered over time to serve a technocratic globalist empire. Homo pecus individuals are optimized for labor, power generation collected from them in the form of taxation and usury, contributing to the economic and energy systems of the empire through collective, herd-like behavior. While genetically similar to homo sapiens, they are intellectually and behaviorally distinct from homo sapiens, homo pecus shares a common evolutionary lineage with homo techno, diverging in their role as passive consumers or recipients of technological outputs, rather than creators or programmers of technology.
