Someone who needs AI to do basically anything in their life.

Person1: Hey dude have you seen that guy?
Person2: Who? Him?
Person1: Yeah that guy uses Ai for everything, It's like if he's an Ai-Powered Human... like he even asks Ai to generate art just so he can trace it 'cause he can't draw, or hell he asks Ai to edit docs while it just makes it a mess.

Left-wing Human Sciences

A broad framework applying left-wing values to all disciplines studying human life—history, psychology, sociology, anthropology, and more. Left-wing Human Sciences examine how human experience is shaped by power, inequality, and social structure, and how knowledge can serve liberation. They draw on Marxist, feminist, anti-racist, and other critical traditions to analyze both human reality and the disciplines that study it. Left-wing Human Sciences are self-aware about their own political commitments, rigorous in their analysis, and committed to human flourishing.

"Psychology can pathologize resistance or it can understand it. History can celebrate power or it can tell stories from below. Left-wing human sciences choose—to study with the oppressed, to analyze with liberation in mind, to produce knowledge that serves freedom. Not propaganda, but scholarship that knows it's always political and chooses its politics wisely."

Critical Theory of Human Sciences

The application of Critical Theory to all disciplines studying human life—psychology, anthropology, history, linguistics, and more—examining how they've been shaped by power, how they've served domination, and how they might serve liberation. Critical Theory of Human Sciences asks: How have these disciplines constructed "the human" in ways that exclude? How have they pathologized resistance, exoticized difference, erased alternatives? It doesn't reject the human sciences but insists they must be self-aware, reflexive, and accountable. Studying humans requires understanding the politics of studying humans.

"Psychology pathologized homosexuality; anthropology exoticized 'primitive' cultures. Critical Theory of Human Sciences asks: what other violences hide in our disciplines? The human sciences study humans, but they're also human—flawed, political, complicit. Critical theory demands they remember that, reflect on it, and do better."

Critical Theory of Human Nature

The application of Critical Theory to concepts of human nature—examining how claims about what humans "naturally" are reflect social values and serve political interests. Critical Theory of Human Nature asks: Why are certain traits called "natural"? Who benefits from defining humans as competitive, selfish, aggressive? Could human nature include plasticity, cooperation, solidarity? How have claims about human nature been used to justify inequality? It doesn't deny that humans have biological constraints but insists that "human nature" is never just descriptive—it's always prescriptive, always political.

"Humans are naturally competitive, they say. Critical Theory of Human Nature asks: naturally? Or socialized under capitalism? Humans cooperate too, share too, care too. Which 'nature' you emphasize reflects your politics. Critical theory insists on asking: who benefits from the 'selfish gene' story? And what would change if we told different stories about who we are?"

Theory of Elastic Human Sciences

An extension of elasticity to all disciplines studying human life—psychology, anthropology, history, linguistics—proposing that these sciences must be elastic to capture the stretchiness of human experience. Elastic Human Sciences recognize that humans themselves are elastic: we stretch under stress, adapt to context, recover from trauma, transform across the lifespan. Studying elastic beings requires elastic methods—approaches that stretch without breaking, that capture deformation without assuming rigidity. The theory is both descriptive (humans are elastic) and methodological (human sciences should be too).

Theory of Elastic Human Sciences "She changed completely after the trauma—then changed again in recovery. Elastic Human Sciences says: humans are stretchy. Psychology that assumes fixed personality misses the point. We need sciences that stretch with us—that measure not just who we are, but how far we can bend without breaking."
