Someone who aspires to and diligently pursues the values of humane-ness as opposed to human-ness. Humaneism rejects aspiring to be human, since "human" carries huge evolutionary baggage. To aspire to be "human" is to value "might makes right," "kill or be killed," "winner takes all," "territorialism," "tribalism." To be a humane rather than a human means to aspire to community, negotiation, mutual respect, inclusiveness, protectiveness, sharing, and the golden rule. Not the rule of gold (human).
I no longer aspire to be human. I wish to be a humane. Wanting to be human means wanting stay in the jungle and not advocate for humane values. Being a human is so past history, I strive to be humane.
Aspiring to be a human no longer means wanting to be humane. It is time for a new word for the next step in humane evolution. "Being inhuman" is oxymoronic, since humans are naturally inhuman.

I am a humaneist, seeking humane beings to join in humaneist and humaneitarian goals and behaviors.

Weapons are humanitarian aid. 

Weapons are humanitarian aid — A perfect example of neo-doublespeak in the tradition of “fake news”, “perfect phone call”, “alternative facts”, and “peaceful tourist rioting with Confederate Flags”.

A most dystopian 21st century reality perhaps illustrating the idea that we really are living in the Kālī Yuga — The Dark Age.

When compared with statements like:

Rice is humanitarian aid
Wheat is humanitarian aid
Digging fresh water wells is humanitarian aid
Offering safe effective and free vaccines is humanitarian aid
Safe and affordable housing is humanitarian aid.

it is easy to see the dark irony of the Orwellian neo-doublespeak statement: weapons are humanitarian aid.

How does this measure up to offering people: food, water, shelter, political asylum, or potential citizenship.

Is it surprising that in an era where gun violence is the number one cause of death among young people in America today; that, we want to export this “largess” all over the world — perhaps as a Swift-ian “modest proposal” to solving the worldwide refugee crisis.

If weapons are humanitarian aid; then WE ARE ACTUALLY AT WAR.

Which would actually be a much more honest and straightforward statement.
Weapons are humanitarian aid. if this statement is true; then, we are actually at war and we should just stop bullshitting about it.
